I would have chosen the 800 as well
(I'm talking potential carrying weight...the GS ADV can carry a lot more fuel and weight...and you'd be tempted to max that out, where on the 800, you don't have that GVWR)

The size was a big [HUGE] part of my choice. And, I haven't ever gone across Africa like these guys - but, I'd imagine fuel isn't around every corner. The 800 has an itty bitty tank. Yes, I know there are expanding options. But, dang.
I love my bike.
I mean, REALLY love this bike.
