(only cos he insisted) not many bikes could have coped with a big fat fook and a smaller one plus 2 lots of bike luggage, in the region of 200+ kilos, on a GSA this was, i've always admired them and lusted but after that particular little adventure would have one in a heartbeat, realistically though the price is to deep for my pockets even at second hand prices, just cant stretch that far due to other commitments, gonna buy a poster for me bedroom wall instead.

I know where there's a lovely sorted GS going for a tad over £3K Cliff :good:
