I’ve just traded in my l/c gsa for an RT. Don’t ask me why. It’s about the 3rd or 4th time I’ve swapped alegence. I had a few problems with the gsa but all got sorted by the dealer and bmw. When I took off the Givi universal adapter plate from the rear rack which I had mounted with nuts and bolts that I had to hand I found that they had gone very rusty. However the standard bmw rack has no sign of rust whatsoever. I got to thinking that if the rest of the bike was made to the same standard bmw would not have to be replacing frames engines exhausts shocks and switches. After 82,000 kms there was no reason to change except for a change. I’d love to have been able to afford to keep it alongside the RT. JJH
