Newbie Looking For A 899 Panigale

  1. Hi all!

    Just a newbie to the group here, currently in the market for a 899 panigale with a budget around the 9k mark, ideally sub 10k mileage
    Would also consider a 959 but I don't think my budget will stretch quite that far
    Struggling!
    Appreciate any advice or help
     
  2. Thanks!
     
  3. Welcome and enjoy. Hope you find what you are looking for!
     
  4. morning nathan'
     
  5. welcome
    check out the 9k one on AT - got a wrap and around 7k miles and decent service history. desmo not for another 8k which saves 1k
     
  6. Welcome to the forum.:)
     
  7. If you look around, you might just get a 959 for not much over - I got one with low miles and full DSH to use as trackbike for sub 10

    The 959 isnt much difference to the 899, but worth the stretching budget a little if can for it as a few minor improvements really did add up (Also if you plan to do trackdays, the 899 has weaker conn-rods which has been an issue)

    The downside is the stupid exhaust, massive step backwards on the 959 but other than that
     
  8. Appreciate it thanks!

  10. Can't find that one?
     
  11. Its def there not sure if 899 or 959
     
  12. If it was the anniversary edition one it was being collected as I rang up yesterday, just missed it!
     

  13. My old 899 was the best smile per mile bike I’ve ever ridden on the road and we did a good 30k together. :upyeah:
     
  14. Great to hear! Love the idea of a middleweight superbike, been toying with the BMW s1000rr but it's too much for the road imo, im quite a experienced rider and like to be able to use the majority of the power, I feel the 899/959 fills that bridge between a revvy 600 and monster ltr bike
     
  15. it was an anniversario inspired wrap but actual bike was red. it looked decents
     
  16. Yeah i missed out on it haha
