The 1150GS is HEAVY !! It's also pretty unreliable and expensive to fix. And in my opinion it's a dull dog when it comes to performance too. Compare it to a 1200GS and it feels like a Sherman Tank dragging the QE2..
The 995I is also heavy. And it's top heavy too. This is where the BMW beats it.
However, the Tiger is light years ahead in terms of performance and handling. That 955 triple engine is a real peach. A joy to ride.
The 1150GS would be better on dirt roads, but not by much... If you spend 99% of your life on tarmac, get the Tiger...
It's also considerably cheaper and more reliable too.
