Actually stood up close to one yesterday. Until you do you don't realize just how big they are. I'd be fine once on as i'm a big lad but the panniers might make getting on & off tricky as i'm not as agile as i once was.....
.....not as easy to get your leg over!!!! 
They are big buggers.... was it the GSA or GS?
GSA has wire wheels rather than cast, it also has a much bigger fuel tank.
I tend to put tent & sleeping bag on back seat, it makes mounting it, "interesting" - Also with all that gear on the back and full tank of fuel, i'm not that strong, so it can be a real mission to lift it off the side stand 
There's a lot of stuff strapped to that bike just for a holiday..
Say, Tunnie, have you ever thought about using hotels or maybe buying a caravan?
I've always maintained I love camping, but you can't bomb down a country twisty lane at 80mph, getting 50mpg, skip traffic jams or hold anyone up on a bike 
Just hope you don't meet anything coming the other way
