I bet that bike will stomp your 1200
I own a '78 and a '86. The gl1000 feels faster, with no windscreen. I know it's definitely lighter. But the 1200 develops power more smoothly. It' deceiving.
When you unload the front wheel on the first two upshifts, you know you have some serious power in your grasp. I don't know which is faster, but I know I couldn't live on the difference.
I'm sure someone will drag out some quarter mile times somewhere along the line.
