Hi All I'm a 40-something and been with bikes all of my life. I will be getting (hopefully) a nice windfall next year and I am looking at trading my Suzuki GSR600 for a new Hypermptard or Hyperstrada I have sat on them, but not t\ken any out on test rides, hoefully next spring I will start . I have a list of previous bikes on my sig ( for those who dont see the sigs, like me on my tablet!). I use my bike to commute 3 miles to work, but sometimes its 50 miles back
There's quite a few hiding in the Ipswich area, so hurry up and get a Ducati so we can get a local group going before I drop dead.....
Hopefully next summer. Lol... I can go easy on my gsr I used to live in Manningtree so I know a few roads in north essex too.
Cheers for the Welcomes. I sometimes get to Clacton for chips, but not normally further south. Must be something about the older rider, who can afford a Duke? or mature enough?
Yep. I had a Harley a few years ago, bad knee which needed an operation. Thats off my tick list, never again!!! But it served its purpose
Its nice and flat here. Give us a shout if you get bored. If I get a leave pass then I can come out and play
In the throws of moving from kirby cross at the mo and then hols, so pretty manic at the mo. For a so called niche brand? there's deffo plenty of us about it seems between Chelmsford and Ipswich :smile:
Might have something to do with Colchester being between them and having a Duke shop there? I dont have a Duke, I have a Suzi but looking for a Duke.
There's also a brilliant independent in Harleston, a guy called Carl Harrison, who recently serviced my ST for a very reasonable price. Hope to meet up with all you guys soon. Chris
