your test ride time will be in time for the rain , speaks of persistant on sat sorry to dissapoint ya , but the good thing is it will test the new suit out ..
Yoy i looked at the benelli before buying the GS, they look great but after talking to lots of people (even the sales) they have got a terrible reputation for going wrong
Just go get a GS ya know ya going to end up with one
PS Just think of all the new green and silver undies you will have to buy
Yeah - I've had Ducati and Aprilia bikes, and SAAB, Alfa Romeo, and Fiat cars, and they all have their quirks and alleged share of unreliability. I look at it as a challenge of ownership!
Anyhow, I need a second bike, and the Tre K does look feckin' gorgeous...
Might look at a GS for a 'main' bike next year. Or the year after. Trouble is, the SM's just so goddam perfect.
Just taken delivery of a Power Commander III USB. Was a little concerned about the GSA running too lean with my baffle-out Akra system. Should sort the fuelling out and give a few extra ponies
Always liked that style of Harley. Don't know much about them, really, but have test ridden an XR1200 recently. Tempted, as a second bike, but then I do have eyes for the Benelli...
Hmmm...I guess it felt like it looked - big and heavy, but once going it seemed quite capable. It was raining so didn't have a chance to properly have a go, but it did seem a bit vague sometimes, and you need to give it a good haul over in a bend.
Brakes were adequate, and it accelerates like stink! Vibrates like an Ann Summers Rabbit, though. Oh, and the clutch was quite heavy, similar to a Ducati.
Would be tempted if one came up at the right price, and as a second "Sunday blast" kinda bike, but not sure I could put up with it on a regular, day-to-day basis.
I'm also thinking of a Sportster 883 for the present Mrs Joybringer. Nice and compact. And the bike.
