The CS really ARE faster!stuart said:I had a "CS" while my "GS" was in for a chain and sprokets.....
The CS is lighter and felt faster, but you feel more open than on the GS, it was quite windy and raining the day I had it, I was glad to get back on the GS and feel more protection!
I also think the GS is better for touring, long distance as the seat on the CS felt thin and there arent the luggage options for the CS that the GS has.
But, if its just for running about the CS would be fine.
