  1. Newish to the forum, been lurking around for a while before making the final decision. Just put a deposit on a very low mileage 2011 MTS and p/exing my GSA. Looking forward to some banter and maybe some rideouts... if you have them. :upyeah:
     
  2. welcome
     
  3. Greetings, I had a 12 GSA once, nice bike but positively pedestrian when compared to the Mutley.....
     
  4. Hello and welcome
     
  5. Be interested on your thoughts between the two
     
  6. Hello and welcome.
     
  7. Hiya mate, where are you based?
     
  8. Consett, Co. Durham :upyeah:
     
  9. Sister lives at Consett, may be up your way spring / early summer - so get the kettle on fella! :cool:
     
  10. No problem, could show you some good roads during the day and/or bright lights at night :wink:
     
  11. Hi and welcome
     
  12. Welcome to the Multi. I came from a GS and never looked back.
     
  13. Trancey - in similar position, pls share your thoughts on the comparison......
     
  14. Also came from a Beemer GSA & I'd say the BM was a nicer bike to ride in traffic & sub 70mph but after that the multi just blows it away, more power, better profile tyres. Even after nearly 18 months it still amazes me on every ride but it takes a bit of getting used to.
    Good luck with it, i don't think you'll regret it.
    :upyeah:
     
  15. This is my consideration - tbh, I dont get (or use) too many opportunities to be riding at post 70mph - occasionally for sure, but otherwise, it is town riding, or country roads and twisties where 70+ aint on the cards - I guess I will see how it feels when I ride it on Saturday
     
  16. To me it sounds as if you should be testing the 2013 bike. The updates bring the low rev smoothness to close or equal to that of the BM.
     
  17. I would say my usual "greetings" however someone has beat me to it. Therefore, hello good evening and welcome. Remember stay out the black and in the red. You getting nothing on this forum for two in a bed. Oh and look what you could of won.
