How does you 850 handle down the highway? I love the feel of a GS being a sporty little bike around town. Just curious because I had a 450GA that would do 45 mph max in a 10 mph headwind. I always thought it was because it was automatic until I got a 500cc Honda CX that wasn't a big fan of highway speeds either.
