I hope after writing this i'm still welcome on this forum, as i will a get another monster.......one day. :(
After much thought I decided to go back to another Sports Bike. I had looked at the 1098 / 1198 and 848 plus a 749. All lovelymachines but as we are still trying for a baby and looking to move house the price and running costs with servicing was too much. So i looked at the Aprillia RSV (not V4) and what a great bike. Front wheel up in nearly every gear, however, parts and service places are very few and far between. So after thinking long and hard i decided maybe i would stickl with what i had for the time being. Then at work one day my collegue pulls up on his new CBR. I had a ride and was very impressed. so i am sorry to say i have done a deal and Daisy Duke has gone and boy am i glad i looked after her, even in part exchange i have only lost £900 in 2 and half years.
However, as you guys are such a great bunch :ukm: and have made me feel so welcome since i first got the monster, i'll still be on here having a chat and meeting up with you guys, albeit having to park in the naughty corner.
