My feelings exactly! I have a '01 1150 GS and a "00 KLR. They both fit a nitch and I would feel incomplete without both! I see the GS as a sport tourer and the KLR as the "adventure tourer"I think it will only be a short period of time till John realizes the short comings of the GS as an "adventure tourer" Ron -- --- Ronald Wells> Hmmmm, I did just the opposite.
