Ning peeps!  I have the whole weekend off  [thumbsup]

We have friends from Oregon here for a visit.   [wine]

Monday through Wednesday I am working in the warehouse at work.  Sit at a desk for 8 hours, help a few people, and surf the interwebs!


TiNi how many days now?

Hey Paula

It was good to meet you

I'm sorry I had to bail like that

It was nice to finally meet you too, I'm sorry the timing didn't work out better (traffic [bang])  but I'm sure there will be another time. :)

I hope you enjoy my mountain

;-D 

Verrrrry nice. [thumbsup]  Hiked a good ways up it this morning before heading to the airport, and of course I enjoyed the short ride.  The drive was pretty good too (especially up to the hotel and back), even in an underpowered rental car, but I think next time I may ride up from home. 8)

I'm with you.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

I might have to buy one.



Have you ridden a GS1150?

No, and I'm told they are *very* different. This was not quantified, either. But I assume its a bit less refined. I'm looking for a 1200, myself. The market is pretty good for 'em right now, and it fits me well, I'm just waiting on funds. I don't want to finance a toy, even if it will be a primary commuter.

Also, I had reviewed the 1200 here.

Finally got a some of the honeymoon pics resized so I can post them without causing bandwidth failure.  Look for a post coming soon.  It's not a ton of them, but a few to represent each island we visited as well as the boat ~

So many improvements in the 1200.  I wouldn't consider the 1150 unless it was an absolutly a (here is a stack of cash to take it off my hands) smokin' deal.

What year is the 1200 you looked at?  ('08's squeeze out a few more horses, and fixed a problem in the drivetrain.)

Also, look at the 800.  Very close power:weight ratios to 1200.
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Thanks for the info.

I think I will stay away from the 1150 due to what you guys have said, along with it's a lot heavier (So the dealer says). I don't weigh a whole lot, so less weight is better for me.


I test rode one at Moto Ohio, so I am guessing an 09?

It was pretty damn nice, I was amazed at how well it handled.



Mrincredible,


where you seeing used ones up for sale?

SF bay area option on Craigslist. There are a number of 1200's with all the bags and a few other goodies for 8-12k.
