I've previously owned a 2003 R1150GS and a 2005 R1200GS (both owned from new). Since then I've had a 650 single and my current 2nd bike, an F700GS (both secondhand).
I now have the opportunity to buy another "big" GS. I'm going to be clocking up some commuting miles over the next three years (150 mile round trip, 3 days a week). Add in some leisure riding, and we're looking at 10,000 miles year on this bike. The K1600 will still be the tool of choice for touring.
So, do I buy:-
1. A year old, low mileage 1200GS LC, maybe ex-demo (which is how I bought the 700GS and the K1600)
2. A brand new 1200GS
3. Wait for a 1250GS
Any views?
