RE: GS build quality
1200 vs 1150 ? said 2006-01-01 00:27
looking for an opinion: I am about to buy an R 1200 GS Adv. or 2005 1150 GS Adv. I have trouble to choose among the two. Quality and looks, are the two most important aspects for me. I am a 6.3in., 225lb. male. It seems to me that the R 1150 GS Adv. is a bit more bulky and thus more appropriate for my size, where as the nw GS 1200 Adv, although better equipped and on paper looking technicaly much imporved, looks much skinier. For another, i am wondering weather the new 1200 GS has droped in quality comparing to the the R 1150 Gs Adv., just because of the first ever BMW GS plastic side look?
