If informative posts getting deleted and all that crap then from now on I will refrain from coming to this particular subforum and share my knowledge about any bike, BMW or otherwise. Apparently you people don't want to hear about the bad quality control issues or design issues.

And you will get a GS....unless Trip decides that HE wants a different bike...:lol:

Hell I don't know shit about any of them but the little bit of "research" I've done (:work:) has shown me one thing. These bikes are all, including the Suzuki, the Ducati, the Aprillia and the Buell very different and have different strengths and weaknesses depending on what you want to use them for.

Old review but interesting,

I don't know You can get one of these for $4-5,000 in really good shape, I fully admit to being a Suzuki fanboy!:rockwoot:

Hell with the money you save, you could upgrade the suspension if you are really serious about off road. Racetech is but a phone call away!:lol:

No problem... um are you dead too? It's funny, I hit "reply" and went and got my "research" stuff together and all the posts were gone....:idk: Anyway, I'm cheap and dollar for dollar I don't understand where all that extra money goes for the other European bikes. I mean I understand that there are electronic gadgets, I'm just not sure a competent rider needs most of them...:idk:

Dead? Uh no...I wouldnt know how to use the fancy shit anyway, and I want something I can easily afford and perhaps buy used so when I beat the shit outta it, I dont feel guilty!

But calling the gs a pussy bike is constructive how?

I agree housekeeping went a touch heavy on the bleach... Some good post were deleted... But a lot more shit was removed than quality.

Calling the gs a pussy bike and calling the long way guys butt buddies is not informative. It has nothing to do with the 800. The 800 thread is not a thread for ur love of ktm. If you want to be informative about the 800 go for it. If you want to be a douche your posts will disappear again.

But the constant bashing on my Buell is fine.
