That site is wrong
How can the GS and GSA weigh the same, when the GSA has engine bars, pannier rails, spoked wheels, larger tank etc

I’m on the edge of my seat. That looks completely different to the current GS.![]()
Wow, what a difference! Let’s see what the actual bike will look like.![]()


Some new stickers and rocker covers should be enough to get a 'NEW MODEL' buying frenzy on the go.
It will be enough for MCN to fill the front cover and issue a 6 page pull out on a theoretical shootout with its rivals finishing with 'is it it enoughto retain its crown'

There's 3 people on this thread wanking themselves to sleep each night over the thought of it already, so I'm sure the magazines will have a field day.![]()
If theres an RR version, I'm 'avin it.
You have to wonder about Nutty snidely criticising people for wanting to possibly buy the new model GS, yet he openly states his intention to replace his KTM with another KTM when it's 2 years old.
So what's the difference ?
People buy what they want, not what others tell them they want. If current GS owners want to buy a KTM or any other bike, then I'm sure they will.
Banging about weight is another load of bollocks. A few KG on a bike means nothing compared to the weight of the rider, and BTW, have you seen how heavy the new Triumph explorer is and that is a very top heavy bike compared to the GS.
The sun will soon be up over Bullshit Central.
Though he may have topped himself as it doesn’t look like the new Caricature Adventure Bike has 17 inch wheels or comes in black ....
