Look, I have a '07 GSA with 50.000km on it, I had a 800GS that I sold after a year... I have still a bunch of other bikes as well and NONE I kept as long as my GSA. I like to switch bikes every now and then (read: almost every year) I just love her (I'm a guy, so my bike is a she...), made some esthetical modifications (Touratech and Wunderlich parts) and just can't get rid of her.
The high prices of maintenance? WTF? I mean, She always go to the BMW dealer here, last time the 50k i paid 200 and something € for the 10k maintenance... But then I indeed paid almost 600€ for the 40k, but everything was checked, changed and so on... Don't forget that she has to get her maintenance only every 10.000km or once a year, my other bikes need more maintenance, but in the end you pay nearly the same for a Jap or the BMW.
I had Ducati, Honda, ... and in the end, riding a GOOD bike, does cost a bit of money, but she has NEVER EVER let me down, and I would by a 1200 GSA again in a heartbeat!
If you want, you can always mail me for more info, pictures or whatever concerning the 1200GSA!
