Hey guys. I have been eavesdropping on the forum for a little while. I am interested in buying a BMW 310gs but have not signed on the dotted line just yet. I have been waiting to see a gs in person, having seen the R near Atlanta a couple months ago while on a business trip. Hopefully I will make it to a dealership in the next couple weeks.
I have owned five bikes throughout the years and am currently riding a 99 Yamaha Roadstar 1600 cc cruiser. I'm sure that there will be a new learning curve changing to the BMW but I welcome the change. Major reasons for changing include: wanting to be able to ride around my rural property; always having wanted a BMW; and, most importantly, recuperating from ACL reconstruction surgery and a fractured tibial plateau which is really pushing me to want a much lighter bike.
For those of you who have owned a 650gs, how do you feel about the 310gs in comparison?
I look forward to learning on the forum.
