    Just had a look at one today and quite impressed with what I saw for the
    money (£2500 for 03 with 2000 miles, mint cond', bsm s/s can, handguards).

    Coming in around £1500 cheaper than a similar age KTM/CCM but is it any
    good? Not much by way of reviews online. Basically wanted as a second bike
    for around town, commuting and for use in the bad weather (so I dont wreck
    my rsv).

    Anyone got / had one and care to offer an opinion. TIA.

    Don't know anything about them, but my brother likes them and he's
    pretty fussy.

    The very one. Think I'll go for it. Worst case scenario is i don't like it
    all that much and flog it again for a few hundred less some months down the
    line. Just a pity all the sites I can find with info and parts etc. seem to
    be completely in german :(

    The Baggy's just like the Jap factory made 'motards - it looks the part,
    is a lot of fun to ride, but is also a lot heavier with a lot less
    power, which makes it more reliable and less labour intensive

    The baggy needs its engine freeing up even more than Euro 'motards do,
    so plan on getting a race can and re-jet 'cos it needs it
