Looks similar to the r1200 however the exhaust and the rear shock placement look ugly apart from that it looks good having said that Guzzis are very top heavy unlike the Beemers.

Many thanks Blackel its cleared it up. There good for motorcycles(I understand the importance of unsprung weight) but I wont be fitting them to my pushbike.

I'm keeping the r1200s and not going the gs route I prefer sport/tourer however the gs is very popular over here. When I go for a ride I have to travel about 100ks (60miles) to get to some decent twisty roads where I like to get into it away from traffic and cops it's just the way it is around my wa...

Note I already changed plugs and alt belt...

Thanks for the welcome lads regards George.
