The GS is a demon

All of my old friends in high school rode harleys...I finally my first bike, a GS, three weeks ago. So I called my harley buddies to ride because I dont know any GS riders or sportbike riders near me. So I meet up with these guys and I felt a little underpowered  :oops: amongst them they had a Deuce, Sporty 1200, S&S Super Sport (chopped up harley running a 1300 S&S). By the end of the day my confidence had grown leaps and bounds and I could definately hang with a harley on the GS. 1st gear sucks but once second pulls in at 7k its fun to hold on and drop the hammer. I love the feel of the GS and the performance is suprising. I am not saying a GS could take those bikes straight line...but by no means were they blowing me away. I just thought I would share my joy of the weekend with you all.  :icon_mrgreen:

Practice those corners (safely!)...  Then you can practice leaning off...  Then hanging off...  Then you can practice laughing at your buddies 'cause they can't hang with you!   :laugh:

You may have to rev the GS, but it's light and flips side-to-side like nothing!   :icon_mrgreen:

Unless the guy on the 1200 knows how to ride it, or if the S&S has some ground clearance and some knowledge as well.
