Just purchased a used 2008 GS (3400 miles). 5 Speed Manual. Leaving behind a 2004 ST1300. Will sell the ST. Live in Eau Claire WI, salt and sand almost off the road.
Hoping for ideas and help:
1. Heated Grips
2. Cruise Control (Electronic)
3. Mount for my GPS

Welcome to the clubhouse!
I'm watching my roads back here waiting impatiently for them to get cleaned up too!

Windshield

What size and brand windshield do you have? Out today and at 70MPH got more wind than my ST1300. Guess I have to realize the Spyder does not have full fairing. That said I do like the Spyder.

Welcome, Jan!!

I picked up my 2008 GS on Monday night. Looking forward to the next few months' of warm weather, myself!

The RS comes with a very sporty (meaning useless) windshield, but BRP has other options for this model, like a touring windshield or a full fairing that comes also with wind deflectors.

...it all depends on how many bugs you want to kill during the summer riding season!
Broke my RT out for the season's first ride yesterday... WOO-HOO! It's great to be back in the saddle!
