My New GSA

Hello Everyone. I finally got my new GSA last Saturday and in keeping with the tradition here, I am posting my first picture tonight. Sorry it is not anything exciting as far as the picture goes. I went with the premium package, ESA and such. The bike has the BMW panniers and top box. I have my Zumo 550 mounted on it as well as the XM antenna. In addition to the stock seat, I purchased the low seat from a GS and the extra low seat from the R model (hope I have that right). So I have three seats. Being inseam challenged, the extra low seat fits me best (pretty much flat footed). The low GS seat is fine as long as I only want to be on my toes. The stock seat, well, then we're talking the need for a ladder.

I've only got about 370 miles on it as of tonight. I absolutely love it so far. And it feels great to finally actually have my first Beemer in the garage. Can't wait to take on its first little trip in July.

I have been a member of MOA since last fall and really enjoy reading the forums each day. Met Mandy this last weekend at Gateway BMW in St. Louis during the open house while I was picking up my new bike. Hope to get to meet some you in the future.

Returning to the MOA after an 18 year absence. This is a picture of my 3 month old 2006 R1200RT on the way to Alaska (August 2006). Taken across the river from Teslin Lake YK. The bike survived the trip with a starting mileage of 2500 miles and at the end 10850 miles. It currently has 40 k on the odometer and is ready for Alaska this year once again.

I sprayed the vulnerable painted pieces with Griot's spray on bra for protection. The bike came home, I peeled the material off and no scratches at all:clap I will do the same on this upcoming ride.

2009 GSA. I kept the Garmin mount, FF50's, Centech, Throttlemeister and TT Zegas from the '05 standard GS. I had TKC's on the GS, but this one came with Karoos. Well, the first long trip I had a chance to take was for work in Arizona from Cali, and as much as I spiced it up with off the beaten path riding, I still had some deadlines, so mostly pavement. Oh well...Still had fun on 66 up to Oatman and some dirt roads around the desert. As far as the bike...love it! Killer machine.
