Just to pass the time, is there any new motorcycle purchases on the horizon for you and if so what? (Doesn’t have to be a ‘new’ bike, just new to you). anything tickling your fancy? or has Covid buggered that also
I remain stubbornly hopeful that the Norton V4SS I've ordered will arrive one day. Does that count? If it does, I am also considering changing the 848 for a Hypermotard.
Blown the budget on rebuilding the Multistrada engine. Still, if I get my arse in gear and push on with reassembling the 748R and 1098R and get them MoT’d, there might be funds in the pot to have a look around. Still have a hankering for a Desmocedicci D16RR. Andy
No new steed for me. Recently fitted a 550 engine in the Aprilia and the 939sp is in for new calipers, lines, master cylinder and new rental sprockets with carrier. I look forward to riding both
Fancy a streetfighter V4S and a Panigale R but will wait to year end and see what’s happening as I work in oil and gas which is somewhat volatile atm.
Hmmmmed and ahhhhhhhed a bit about a 1199/1299, but tbh still very happy with the 899 and not much point trying to sell the 899 or buying another bike to not ride Mostly been buying bicycling accessories.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-R80-RT-MONO-BRAT/303554952871 I am bidding on this to tool around the island on!
Bought my 996 in January. Re other possibilities, I was thinking of a V2 towards the end of the year but also really like the 765 Daytona Moto2’s which is similar money and just a bit more special. Have to wait and see now.
I fancy adding a bike ? Not sure what though, something to use everyday come rain or shine, something still fun and don't really want to break £10K as its going to be one of those bikes that's rarely washed etc. Just service it, rag it to death and use it ?? ( I can hear most saying Multi, but I've had 3 of them and feel I have done them to death a bit)
I agree mate, but not really a summer and winter hack though ?? A bit pretty to fuck up on wet winter roads. I've had a clear out Andy and only have 2 bikes, both of which are too pretty to tear up in Autumn/Winter ??
Could probably say that about most bikes around the target budget of 10K. We all know how Duc's stand up to our shitty salty damp winters, chains go rusty in the showrooms
I want something but doubt I’ll have room or funds, could be A 848 SF or Hypermotard or if I spot 1 a aprilia 450 2 stroke thing whose actual model number escapes me, think Andy800 has one.
