Looking for some real world comparisons between these two from folk who’ve owned and lived with both.
I have 1200 GSA for 18 months and find it a great bike. I’ve also had the 1290 SA-T which I loved but just couldn’t get on with the screen or the low speed throttle control, yes I know I should have had it Hilltopped. It’s the only bike I’ve ever had that made me scream out loud with joy apart maybe from my 450 EXC.
I’ve got the chance to swap my GSA for a 1290R which I’m taking for a long test ride later this week. The bike needs to do everything - long distance tour, commute in all weathers, nip down the shops, dash up to Scotland from the Home Counties when required.
So what’s your comparison?
