+berniebgf Thanks for watching :) I must say this bike is the best I have ever ridden which helps in feeling confident while riding. It seems massive at first but once you get used to its weight, it becomes a part of you basically :)
Epic riding skills. Agree with previous comments but a great thrill watching that journey. Would love a GSA 1200 for weekend/casual riding...... just a bit put off by the bulk of them. Still my fave bike though :) Safe riding....
How did you find the bike when the traffic was really heavy? I commute in on Tiger XCX and I'm definitely not as nimble as other bikes but get through much better than I expected. Bit worried that I'll get completely stuck if I move up to the GSA especially round the more central parts.
You're taking too many risks, in my opinion. I used to drive a class 1 HGV and I drove panel vans for some time. Undertaking them as you did here is just asking from trouble. I commute on a motorcycle now by the way.
+DervMan thanks for watching :) Yes, I have been riding various GSAs for quite a while now and I find the bikes very comfortable and surprisingly agile even in heavy traffic. They are perfectly balanced with low center of gravity and this helps a lot once you get used to the bike's weight. No, I do not have a quick shifter - usually I just do upshifting without clutch.
I used to commute from West Drayton - not any more though as I have moved out of London recently. For the last few months I have been commuting 90 miles one way pretty much every day. It is doable (especially on the GSA) but after a while you start to strongly wish you worked closer to home ;) Anyways, the GSA is more than capable of delivering an outstanding performance over long distances. I do not think there is a better bike you can do a daily commuting on :) Safe riding, mate.
You are confident on the bike, some manageable risks there.......Couple of moves I would not have taken.
Thanks for the upload.

Some impressive bike control there, I guess you've had the GSA for quite a while given how naturally you throw it around? Do you have a quick shifter?

Where do you commute from? I am considering a very long commute to London.
