So a 12 is like a Focus ?
That's why my 1150 is like an Aston Martin

Funny how up here in the land of heavenly gravel roads (Finland, that is...) bike markets are a bit different: last year's most sold over 125cc bike was Kawa ER-6 followed by Honda CBR1100XX and Yamaha FJR1300. In top 20 there are no allroad bikes at all and not a single BMW model.
Most sold "brand names" (excuse my bad English) were 4 Japs (Ho-Ya-Su-Ka) followed by H-D, KTM and BMW at 7th place together with Triumph (3,8% share each while Honda had 23,1%).
So instead of being "everyman's bike" 1200GSA is more like an odd freak...

Ah, the good old "popular vs populist" argument!
I also have a 1200GS and a Focus. Almost a pattern emerging here...

I've got a 1200 and a Volvo (wife has a Volvo S40, which is a Focus in different clothes) - do I count as mister average?
