Was considering doing my GS in it before I sold it. Thought it'd look good in 'creamy mayo'.. had a few tins left over from the scooter.

Shame that the GS has to go Niall but you should be able to pick up an Africa Twin or a Super Tenere at handy enough money and they are still great bikes and well suited to our roads.

Congratulations on the parallel twins too by the way.

Ah sure you'll have another bike soon enough. Lynda"s expecting our first (and thankfully it's only one!!) in august... Exciting and scary. 20 week scan was yesterday and all's well.

Just seen you sold the GS. It was a great bike but needs must.

You know what the africa twins are like and having had mine for a while now I would defo recommend 100%.

I'll keep an eye out for a good twin for you if you want or have you something else in mind.

nice xtz750 gone up for under 2k

been up for while and got re bumped up recently

Decision time

R1150gs or 03 Africa twin?

R1150gs or 03 Africa twin?

I'd go for the Africa twin. It's the bike that made me want to own a bike when I was knee high to a grasshopper. Family holidays on the continent as a kid always saw me glued to the car window looking at the big hondas.
Seem to be a fantastic bike although heavy and a bit thirsty if that's a concern ...

 

[essjay]

neither. Get yourself the best of the modern GS's...... the 1100.....
