Do I upgrade?

If you want more range and a bit taller then the obvious answer would be yes if you don't mind the extra weight.

Here’s a thing … it’s not compulsory to fill the tank up everytime.

Here’s another thing .,
No matter how big your fuel tank, it’ll run out at some point.

Electronics/fueling between the GS and GSA are identical. It's all in your head.
People who say the GSA is more roomy? It's in your head. The chassis/frame/rear subframe is identical.
Seat comfort and options on both bikes are identical.
The wider tank of the GSA is less comfortable over distance compared to the GS. Unless you like keeping your legs splayed apart... it is not a natural position for most over a long period of time. Unless you're a cheap hooker...(!)

.. get out of my head .. it's already crowded enough in there! .. actually, whilst on paper there there 'should' be no difference, I did find a difference in the throttle response but thinking about it that could well be down to my GSA having been a year 'younger' than the GS so my experience could well be down to minor modification, manufacturing changes .. but I also considered the points about COG and mass with the same throttle and fuelling components throttle .. be interesting to do some proper 'back to backs'
