The name "Rockster" reminds me of a really heavy duty offroad bike that might also pull a pickup-sized camp trailer....

Actually I really liked the 1150 and 1200 GS and how it looked and everything..... until I sat on one. Unfortunatly, I am a bit too short to ride it. :cry:

I had ridden the new K 1200 GS the day before, which was a big switch from my SV 650.

All I can say is......Wow!
