....and left with an 1199S !!! Yes I could look a bit happier about it but this was "pre-haggle" so deep in thought. I was actually interested in a new 899 but a short test ride later and deposit placed on a lightly-used 1199 instead - amazing what a bit of bling does for you. One thing I don't like is the Zero Gravity Corsa screen. Previous Owner didn't pass on the original and my haggling skills didn't stretch to a screen as well. So before I spring for a new one, if anyone would like to swap screens or do me a deal on an oem original then please pm me. Just got to wait 5 more sleeps to pick her up and consign my 1098 to a pleasant memory. Rich
Nice! Remember that look too, took my 848 for a service and ended up leaving with an 1199s instead....not quite a bacon sarnie though!
Great - I'll pm you and we can sort out details Oh dear, that makes me pig sick (yes, tenuous I know but the best I can do) And most importantly, the sarnie was superb. Upstairs cafe at Riders Bristol, fresh baguette with griddled bacon, 'shrooms and all-important tommy sauce. Without being bitchy (ok, I now will be), it's a shared dealership with Harley-D and all of the Hog riders seem to look like Duc riders after one too many bacon sarnies. And a fascination with leather waistcoats. Made me at least pull the bacon fat off for fear of needing a Harley XFHLTXYZ next once my gut won't clear the Panigale tank....
