The GSAs are still sold as 2013 CamHeads, until the new GSA(water cooled) gets here around 2014. The new GS1200(standard) water buffalo is almost here, very soon now. LOTS of changes we all read about by now. We're thinking of buying another GSA1200,2013 before they stop production later this year probably. Our family biggest topic has been the mpg's and even the newest 1200 water cooled has not improved on this according to BMW Literature. HP jumped a ton to 128! That is not even a consideration of selling the new bike to us, as HP has been a non issue a while now. BMW is a runaway train in this regard, beat the Japanese,English,Austrians,etc??? As a very long time GS guy, I've been selling my younger family on what Ive done all these years and the right bikes to buy! One has settled on the GSA currently available2013. We shop very soon and probably buy another. My "beef" with BMW is still the mpg's for a 1200GSA to improve and its a thorn in my side. When you try to "sell" the GSA idea and get around to the mileage conversation, you can almost hear the gears turning "why"? Its getting to be old and as a life long guy at this with BMW, you'd think somebody would listen up! Still the most fun, best bike ever bought for whatever I do(my GSA1200'07). My gasoline bills will always be bigger apparently. Randy PS; I do indeed look at the smaller GS lineup these days, more and more for two reasons; My age and the mpg's. The GSA gets bigger every year and I let it fall on me the other day! Still got her up, but not much more of that left in me. Heavy!!!
