Ok had a ride on a 2008 GSA with 37K miles on the clock
observations - bloody brilliant - roomy, comfortable, easy two up around town, pillion was happy and no buffeting. i'm 6ft so could touch floor ok
comes with bmw panniers (no back box) traction control, suspension adjustment.
question - clutch biting point was quite a way out - is that normal?
is there anything I should be looking for or avoiding - both in terms of year, mileage or bolt on goodies? Is the GS and the GSA similar except height and that screen and tank?
can't really spend more than 6.5K anyway. got a bike to sell so a p-ex would be handy.
so just after the knowlege - very tempted after the test ride to go straight back and get it but am going to wait at least 12 hours to think!
(pex is an fjr 1300)
