Well I like my 850, which is almost an 1100. I like it enough to have kept it rather than the 1150

I would love to own another 1150 or gsa but found the gs was at times a big lump so gsa is going to be even worse for me ! loaded with pillion as well !
Was hoping the much lighter 1200 had been sorted

Put no more than 20lt in the tank and it'll way about the same

I am 28 and have tried both the 1200 and the 1150. No doubt about it for me. 1150gsa all the way.

I am 60 and have tried both the 1200 and the 1150. No doubt about it for me. 1150gsa all the way

Lighter bike is easier to steal!!

Only upside is they'll be within a 2 mile radius waiting for the AA

Kick a man when he's down why don't you. In very poor taste even by this sites standards.

Having just treated myself to a 1200gsa, you lot are making me damn glad I kept my 1150gsa alongside it...

 

[fizzer]

the 1200 has a service light flashing every 6000 miles ,that you need a gs911 to put it out,the 1150 does not

 

[Robh1664]

Good point Jonnie Comet, I'll wind my neck in (as my dad used to say to me when I was a lad).

1150's kick ass, we all know that ! Don't we ?

Ive been test riding allsorts to replace the 1150..... I am almost convinced by the S10.....but when I get back on the 1150 , I know it , I can fix it...to a point.... it sounds great and does the job, ive done two trips this year and it been a ball.... they are a no duff soild bike... they get might vote...

 

[Jurassic Mark]

I've had the 1100, 1150 and 1200 and I rate them in the same order. Get yourself a classic 1100GS - best of the bunch

 

[mitch9]

Thanks westcoaster that does look a nice gs il try again to find it on fb scotland.
Think i have been persuaded to stay with 1150 i do like the fact they are easy to work on and no fancy bits to complicate things.

Why the GSA over the standard GS Stolzy ?

Love mine, Better (for me) gearbox ratios and just something about them, extra height is a bonus for me

Good question, the GS seems a bit ordinary after the GSA - I like the elevated riding position, just seems more of an 'event' to ride (to me). In fact, I'd prefer the GS gearbox - the low first has no benefits (for me) and I'd prefer the longer sixth of the GS for touring.
