Tip for new members (perhaps needs adding to the FAQ section???):
Don't listen to Kwacka Kid's advice on tyres! He's young & insane & fairly notorious for running some really bad rubber on his bikes!!!
How old were those tyres on the GS???
I run an 010 Battleax on the front and an 020 Battleax on the rear of my CBR600 and love them, but I'm guessing your bike is a bit heavier than mine & might have different needs. Unusual wear for your front tyre - makes me wonder if the previous owner didn't have enough money to replace both tyres last time they were changed (it's normal to go through 2 rears for 1 front tyre).
Wait for some of the other guys to show up with their thoughts on the subject.
And welcome.
