Morning all!
After my 1200GS being written off many years back, I currently have a nice, low miles (23K)1100GS sat in the garage, but.....I have opportunity to buy what seems like a very nice R100GS. Realistically, I don't have the room for 2 bikes, so it's one or the other.
Now, there's nothing wrong with my 1100, in fact I rather like it, and going from a 1200 to an 1100 was a surprise - I preferred the 1100 but the R100GS is the first bike I remember seeing and knowing what it was... I was about 6 or 7, sat in the back of my folk's car on Castle Street in Liverpool when this massive blue and white thing with '1000' on the tank roared passed us, two up... Anyway, enough reminiscing
My question to the good folks of UKGSer is R1100 or R100? I know it's my decision, and I have to go and actually see/ride the R100, but I'd be interested in the thoughts of those who have ridden/owned both...
Cheers in advance for any opinions...
Dave.
