1199 Prices...

  1. I'm guessing the impending 1299 is having an effect on used "obsolete" models :)
     
    • Useful Useful x 1
  2. unless the 12 is not received well, then its 'original and best'!
    Im really interested to get reviews on the even more over, over square block.
     
  3. I suspect a non ABS bike would be noticeably cheaper than one with ABS. The system is so good why would you not want it?

    Dealers will be wanting to shift 1199s as i suspect they will be getting quite a few in to sell when the 1299 is out.
     
  4. Why, because it's silly, I ride bikes not computers :) ......................................... :Bag:
     
  5. Could have fooled me :)
     
  6. Why? :)
     
  7. I wonder :)
     
  8. I don't know? :)
     
  9. Maybe cos the non abs version was cheaper to start with?
     
  10. get on with you! oh, wait a minute, I agree, or did a few years ago.
    modern bikes with 'loadsa power' need aids, even marquez needs aids.
    you think he could ride the bottom of 250bhp bikes without them?
    but, i think, if i could have a 1199 without all the aids, i would like that.
    enter the 899 !!!
    old stuff is cool without aids, bikes and cars. you were in control, but, with aids, you have protection, a buffer,
    and, old stuff had half the power, with skinny tyres,
    i love both, with or without having aids.
    :upyeah:
     
  11. Old stuff had half the power and skinny tyres? In 1984 my Z1 had approx. 180bhp and a 130 Rear :Happy:
     
  12. bet you crashed it :Facepalm:
     
  13. Nope :Happy: it was scary back then - would be scary now too, more so in fact, not young and stupid anymore (just stupid) :Bag:
     
  14. im gonna put a 110 tyre on the pani :Eggonface:
     
  15. 110 front, 120 or 130 rear - have fun with that, mind you the power delivery will be a bit more linear than my old Z :smile:
     
  16. lol, yeah, I will take em off the 125 :) , the power delivery is quite linear, but not twin like at all.
    More 500 two stroke :Woot:
