Cant make my mind up....

What bike i'm gonna get this year, all these stories of the BMW S1000RR
gearbos woes & other problems make me shudder at nearly £13k

I am gonna set myself a max budget of £3k

I fancy summat different, but will still be great on fast road & very fast
track...

Nige,

'That's shot the fox'

Eunos Roadster (for summer)
Grand Cherokee (for winter)

 

Just get another gixer.

 

Surely you're not going to own it long enough for the warranty to run out?

Shame you just missed this, what with your budget:-

I thought you'd already ordered one and were simply waiting for delivery?

That's in Thundercrack territory then.

For 3 grand?

 

Looking long & hard at it, i could just about afford to buy a very expensive
bike, but i would rather spend the money on the family, save some & have
some money left over.

Coupled with the horror stories, i cant be fucked with it.

Might just buy a K3 thou...

Are you telling me a K3 thou isnt fast on both counts?

3K buys a nice GSXR1000K3/4 if you search around

Lozzo
Versys 650 Inter-Continental Hyperbolistic Missile , CBR600F-W racebike
in the making, TS250C, RD400F (somewhere)
BMW E46 318iSE (it's a car, not one of those 2-wheeled pieces of shite
they churn out)

 

Haven't they just been subject to a massive recall?

 

I'm sure CRN can sell you something.

Mumble mumble CBR600F

Gixxer thou. Best sportsbike I've owned.

Nige wibbled forthrightly:

A whippet attached to a wheel barrow

 

Hmm. Think you'd want a greyhound, or possibly two in parallel harness
and a special lightweight racing wheelbarrow to boot. With somewhere
for Nige to put the inevitable tail tidy and LED indicators, obviously.

It'd be the only wheelbarrow in the whole o't Yorkshire wi' rim tape
on't wheel!

 

GSXR750.

 

Indeed not, but you said you wanted something different and a Gixxer isn't
something different as you've had one before.

 

?

the original carbed Mad R1
certainly not as smooth as the inj model you had.
Big stick needed to tame the beast

 

Mine was an original R1 with carbs!!

Pikey.

 

I had one of those as my first 'big' bike.

 

Hey Nige **** the 3k limit. Buy this quick before it goes. You won't regret
it.
That's the first I've seen for sale in 2 years. If I hadn't just spent a wad
on mine I'd have it tomorrow. This is the update model like mine but with
the high performance ABS system which was a peach by all accounts.
