Weight-carrying capacity of the r80 gs and r 100gs
I have found that the net load- carrying capacity for the above bikes is around 200kgs i.e. rider, passenger, luggage. It maybe a little less for the R80 GS. To carry that weight, does anyone know if the rear shock needs to be upgraded and/or the front forks improved? On some bikes,(2016 Africa Twin) to carry these weights the shock and/or the front forks need upgrading which can be expensive. This question is important obviously for long-distance riders especially.
