800 or 1200?

Had the 12 - lowered, with a low seat. 5'6 29 leg - fun but it's heavy. Went to the 800 Tiger and it was a world of differance for back road scratching in wales which i do most of - next Friday i will pick up the F800GS Trophy and can't wait (lowered to 820mm), if you want to get off road a bit the 800 will give you more confidence, i don't miss the grunt of the 1200 because the 800 is just so capable, it's easier to swing around in the road if you need to (which is a necessity on most GS runs btw :blast) so for me weekend fun = 800, but having had two in less that a year with issues i wouldn't recommend the Tiger.... GS all the way!!

Look forward to meeting you for the collection Simon :D
