I didn't realise that. I thought it was a brand new model.
From what I understand the engine and electronics, and all the attached crap are from the GS. But, I think the frame etc is new.

I reckon once you added a few needed extras, then it will be priced similar to the new Tiger 900.

Worth trying both.

The F900XR gets a great write up in the Bike mag that flopped on the door mat this morning. It ends with asking why you would buy a GS for £4k more
