I have to begin by firstly apologising. Why an apology so early well you see I don't own a GS but I am in fact someone who looks at them from a distance in awe. If I had not decided to give up biking after 40 years at the beginning of this year and decided to see my 04 Blackbird to buy a Lotus Elise I might well be on a GS now. Having realised my folly shortly after buying the car I knew I had to get another bike and about a month ago I brought a 99 Blackbird. I had been looking at this Forum but unfortunately I just could not afford those I saw for sale and quite clearly they do not remain for sale for very long.Still I am happy to be biking again. As for the GS I am sure that it will come eventually but I will have to finish paying for the car first. Now for the big question are they as much fun to ride as I read they are ( I am sure I know the answer really ). Is it easy to get a Test Ride or does anyone know where I can hire one for a day.See you when I have paid for the car.

Hiya! - I'm sure the Lotus is as much fun in a different way.

Easy to get a test ride (just to get it out of your system!) - don't know about hire, but I reckon you will get the answer..............
