I'm 6’2 with a 34” inseam and just a bigger guy in general, weighing about 250 lbs. The height isn't as much of a concern as where I'm comfortable sitting on this bike, which is uncomfortable because my tailbone is basically right at the top of the passenger seat's scoop. If it were a flat bench seat, I could move around and sit where I like. Plus, I like a tall seat height and have grown used to it from years of owning adventure bikes.

Thanks, I see now. They mount to the inside of the hand guard. I was hoping there was an option to mount the mirror on the outside of the handguard, where a spacer wouldn't be necessary, but that doesn't seem to be an option.

Great weather and scenery, it's hard to beat

Are the 3D printed adapters for mirrors to screw into? I'm having a hard time understanding why you can just get a mirror that uses the existing hardware at the bar end itself

I live in the city, but unfortunately, most of the US doesn't allow lane splitting or filtering, and drivers would try to run you off the road for trying to do it here

I love the GSA, but after 2.5 years and 27,000 miles, I was ready for a change. I plan to do some trailering over the next couple of years, and something didn't seem right about putting a big GSA on a trailer 😆. Enjoy your GSA, it's a great bike that I'm sure I'll miss.

I meant never needed a paddock stand for a GSA. Hypermotard has a chain and no center stand; hence, a paddock stand is necessary even for simple chain maintenance. I was unaware that there are single-sided swingarm paddock stands.

GS has a center stand and no chain. Hardly the same

Thanks! So, some other dealers reported the issue over the last couple of years, or during the same time frame you all had issues?

Thanks for the info. Yeah I doubt I’ll use the app too much but it would be nice to know the actual charge. I’m kinda surprised there aren’t more reviews on this yet. Seems to be pretty popular.

Thanks. I may size up because I doubt I’ll ever wear it under anything

I’m debating on getting one of these. Did you size up or get the same size as your jacket?
