Your opinions please.

I've got both. Well an ST not an RS.

 

Triumph Sprint RS, the later ones with single-sided swing-arms?

 

I looked at one before I bought the ZRX. Seemed a bit bland by
comparison.

I looked seriously at a 2002 model ZRX1200S, but it seemed a little too
ponderous and bulky for me. The depreciation on most Japanese stuff is
putting me off too. Triumph prices don't seem to be quite so badly
affected by higher mileages and I'm bound to put quite a few on the next
bike. The ZRX I looked at was roughly the same money as a 2004 Sprint
RS, but I just know the ZRX will be worth half of what the Triumph will
be in 2 years time with the same mileage.

 

I'll counter that argument with suggesting that only the likes of Harley
Davidson owners buy a machine because it has low depreciation.

 

Yeah, but they're all middle aged accountants playing at being Easy
Rider, so it's understandable they'd be worried about depreciation.

 

Old man's bike.

I'll counter your counter argument with the words "utter fucking
bollocks"

I'm not exactly young now, am I?

 

Was hoping for a more of a bite than that.

But you're the king of Pahnd Island, and I feel more like Forrest Gump
nowadays

 

Here, have a box of chocolates.

 

muddy cat says...

I'd rather have a new pair of Nikes

 

No, no, they aren't ethical.

Cue jokes about Loz not being ethical too.

I've never owned anything made by Nike.

 

Alison Hopkins says...

Being ethical has never been a major concern for me.

 

Not as nice as a Daytona. Special Edition. Black.

Actually you're not. But them I'm doing about 600 miles/week commuting so
oddly enough I do care a tad about the fuel consumption.
