lean angle GSA

[Paul S]

A 1150GS will lean more

Can't be real ! ..............No pipe

This one...?

Need to remember it's the 1150 though....

Good to see that one again CC.

Nicely spooks a lot of rice jockeys with the german engineering

I have seen a pic on here of a guy on track day giving a GSA some serious lean
I have done the search routine and no can find
The bloke is called Dave its a grey GSA

I want to send the pic to my mates lad who keeps telling me and his dad

"That German shite don't handle"

So can any body point me in right direction

it was on fairly recently

Was it this one?

Amazing pic. V reassuring seeing someone do this on a GSA with compromise tyres too rather than super sticky ones.

Mate of mine, Beangreen, recently had enormous lean angle on a roundabout...

...sadly, on a diesel spill.

They do lean over a lot further than that

Out of interest what tyres are those?

Would you be similarly reassured if you found out the fecker fell off 50 meters down the track?

Instead of gawping in wonder at pictures... Get out and try to do the same

Funlop D607 ( The F is deliberate)


Often poo-poo'ed or passed over by contributors to UKGSer 'What tyre's best on my 1200?' threads Fit some, you'll be a god by Tuesday.

Thanks, I might give these a go next time I need new tyres as I'm not loving the Tourances, and the EXP's had good feel but didn't last 2 minutes (expression and not to be taken literally )

I might be braver on a track but I won't intentionally be attempting anything close to that lean angle on the road.

I had them on my vanillla GS and used them on several track days. No problems at all.

I might be wrong (can't be arsed to check..) but I think the D607 is now replaced with the TR91 which I think is a fab tyre ....
