F800, 1200 GS, or Stelvio 1200? Nice choices...I think maybe the F800 for some real out of the way traveling, like the Trans-Alaska Highway



Oldroadie,

Exactly, one of the reasons I'm a bit hooked on the F800 is because it is significantly lighter than the other 2 therefore would be better suited to do a lot of off-road work that would be encountered on a looooong expedition.
The other 2 are also superb bikes but a bit heavy for that purpose.
