Hello all,
I bought Martins GSA of the site (it,s a minter cheers mate) and got her out for her first short ride yesterday and i have to say what a bike. was a little tentative at first because of the size and the fact that i havn,t ridden for nearly a year (long story) but i soon got into it, i went out with a mate on a GS and having had sports bikes for 20 years i can,t believe how well these things go round corners couple of things to get used to, dont drop it 3 gears going into a corner (it aint a gixer thou) first twin i ever had so gonna get used to the engine braking, and the way the whole bike moves when revved is a bit unerving. Spent ages playing with the ESA cant make me mind up where i like it set yet and it,s a big bugger i,m 6ft and still on tip toes on the low setting but all in all a bike wich i feel i will have for a very long time.

will eulogise some more when i get out on it, if your thinking about getting one just do it, cracking all round bike :thumb2

Revving mad

"...the way the whole bike moves when revved..." I see this sort of comment occasionally and wonder why after 30 years of Boxers I never notice any movement; But then I think it may be that I never rev it in the manner I hear the youngsters enjoying at the lights; I know why they do that but please not on a BMW. It achieves NOTHING
