About to enter the fold, picking bike up next week. Owned a GS1150 a few years ago and grew to love the engine, shaft drive and even the often biking press maligned indicators which I actually prefer. Only thing I didn't like with that bike was the sheer physical bulk which could be a pain manouvering it around in the driveway along with the fact the silencer took half your luggage space on the left hand pannier. Then I got to thinking about the R1100s... hey presto problems solved.
