GS1200 & multi-terrain
Hi all,
I'm looking for a bike that gets me around the city, takes me for weeks up the highway and allows me to plunge into the vast wilderness of my native Northwestern U.S.. They say the GS1200 the beast for the job. My question has more to ddo with tires than anything I suppose. how in the world is an off-road tire supposed to deliver even moderate performance in highway conditions? I ask because in all the online 'tour pictures' I never see any of the expeditions carrying extra tires. Just kinda confused about how the GS1200 rides on the highway. Is this machine all it's cracked up to be?
riding experience: dirt recreationally from 15yrs old (40 now) / 6 years street on a 650Kawa, and 1200Kawa Voyager XII
Thanks for sharing your honest experience.
