hmmm ...might just go for the same thing but a new one..thought about the 1400 but they are pretty hard to get hold of and you get good deals on the brand new M800 just now so might go for that...but no doubt what ever i buy i will end up having hubby rippin it to bits to get it the way i want it !!...also..it has to be a low seat height..ive got ducks disease...my arsh is to near the ground !!

I was talking to a woman yesterday, she's got a GS1200 and she's at least a foot smaller than me, ie about 5'4".

Don't worry BG it's already on my list .... but with a bit of competition from a rumoured tour with my local forum (but that would have to be a really good plan to take priority - and at present there is no plan) .... and the possibility that the Mrs may decide we're going to have a family holiday ....

But as things stand, I plan to be there.........

ive tried so many bikes and unless they are mega low seat heights i cant reach ground...must hae mega short legs lol...and if i do manage to reach the ground...my chin sits on the tank trying to reach the handle bars over big tanks LOL...i jist cana win !!!!

Ive ordered my new bike from George Whites...down your way i think !! Free uk delivery...local dealers just cant get anywhere near their prices. Should be here in a couple of weeks !!

This is it...nice low seat height...big bulkier than my last bike, the VS seems smaller but as long as my feet are firmly on the ground i should be ok lol.

Im not keen on those metal things on the tanks on this style of bikes, but my hubby took his off his VTX and welded tank together and put a normal petrol cap in the middle of it, might get him to do that to this thing..but might get used to it once ive got it. The VS800 didnt have that..neither do the 1400's..but ..suppose i cant have everything !!!!!

Oh..and that pipes have to get the heave !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! new pipes on my santa list !!!
