    But Shaft Drive Is Better

    The F650GS has gone and so has the Africa Twin and I've finally "come home". I absolutely adore my R1150GS which I've had for a couple of months now. No offroad yet, as I'm keeping the road tyres on until after The Longest Day.

    The bike is smooth, comfortable, responsive and fast. Runs fantastically well, even fully loaded up and comfortable for two.

    I have to say that they are bloody good bikes and really get under your skin.
    They tour so well.
