The GS850 is too heavy with the shaft drive. I never liked the torque reaction with shaft drive.
The needle bearing GS 4 stroke is a good strong motor. I like the old GT range, they had something...oh yes ...FUN
Have to do something about that wet waether braking though.... jeez.
On my bike test all we had to do was ride around the block and perform an emergency stop
The biggest death rate is the old git who has a stone age full bike licence, last rode a GT550 in 1978, nothing since, gets some money together and buys a Fireblade...open it up, first corner and splat into Devon's finest stone hedge. At least with a HD you KNOW it doesn't handle
I'm looking for a series one Speed Triple now, its a steel frame and a much bigger bike physically.
