Hey Guys,
I've been curious about a GS-A for sometime now, but I'm wondering about those knobby tires on the A. Seems to me the Michelins on the standard GS would provide a better highway ride, better cornering, less noise and better mileage. If I do decide to get a GS-A, should I have the dealer swap the tires out first?

My Adventure cam with Tourances, kind of a 50/50 tire.
Not really good for off-road but acceptable for street.

Depends on where you are going to ride it,
If you are ordering one, you can order it with street or off road tires, not sure if your dealer has one or not on the floor. or even if he can get one, I've heard from a couple folks from up north say they can not get a GS-A this year (I think he was from canada though)
I ordered mine with street use tires, the wifes GS came with michelins on it, I have no idea what mine will come with
if you order one you might save on certain options you may want
