Nicely balanced, certainly 30% down on the power of the GTR , but I've had 3 in the past, and got as far as Slovakia on them... so its like a return to a comfy old pair of slippers for me.....

Average fuel on the 100 miles back was 6mpg down on the GTR 

The GS has full luggage with it... so I'm all set up again 


The new GTR owner is very happy with his new bike... Pointed him to the forum so he may well be along sometime soon

Just got rid of my 90th anniversary GSA after 4000miles due to corrosion issues and bought a new GTR lol advise from BMW always wash and dry after use and apply treatments as required to maintain show room condition. Enjoy I know I did while I had mine.

Looks good, I like it. I keep getting tempted to go down that route.

Funny how quick this happened... went out for a ride around the Peak District on Saturday, had no intention of changing the GTR when I left, got back, and decided .... 4 days later the new bike is in the garage

Some times, that's the best way to do it.

Bryn ... The same happened to me as you know ... Although my journey from Gtr to Gs was as far as it took me to ride from CX to T Square ! I am sure you will love it !

  And you don't see many orange GS's   

Think it's the right decision for me
