Had a couple of days down in the West country coupla weeks back.
Went on the V-Strom 1000. But finally admitted to myself it's not the bike for me.
So, looking in my shed, V-strom, Africa Twin & Triumph Trophy.
But I only really want one bike to replace all three. But which one?
Well i've finally been convinced on the merits of the GS, now we'll see if all the hype stands up.
So far I love it. :woohoo:
Here it is.......................

Well done TT, she's a beauty, very nice and clean example.
Re the HYPE, there isn't any; what you have there is a bike that'll do anything you want, without protest, and in comfort.
Is that Ohlins I spy?
Enjoy mate.

Great bike T.T. I had one that colour. My wife still thinks it's the best colour for a GS. They take time to get used to but the more you ride it the better it will seem. Enjoy it both of you.
