Just an idea at the moment but if you fancied something different to a sports bike what would you consider. My Short list reads (in no particular order) : Trimuph S3R KTM Superduke 990R Husqvarne Nuda 900R
Speed Triple. after having one for 3 years it's a great bike. comfy fast and fun. Ducati Multistrada new model New Norton
I would go for the aprilia tuono V4 APRC and I test rode one recently its bonkers or KTM Superduke R which my mate has and is also fantastic and stupid quick on the road
Erm, not sure I like the idea. But in the spirit of participation: Aprilia Tuono V4 APRC KTM Superduke 990R Triumph Speed Triple R
I'm totally with you mate and I m just toying with the idea to be honest. At the moment I have 3 sportsbikes which seems kind of stupid as I open the garage and only ever want to take the Blade. Just thinking something a little different could be good for some bumpy B road blasting which would keep the speeds sensible and as an added bonus the police rarely hang out on the B roads that I m thinking of playing on so a win win.
would be a tuono v4 or the new 1200 dorsoduro looks good too. if i wanted a sensible option probably cb1000r in tri colour. had a early tuono which was mad! also had a couple of bandit 12,s and a gsx1400 but just found them to dated and a bit dull.
Well I already have it, a Honda CB1300 looks like a real bike (I am very old) will do most things well.
I test rode a superduke R, Apart from the plank of wood for a seat its a nice bike. I wouldnt say no. The brakes are bloody awesome. Almost caught me out and I ended up doing a stoppie pulling up to a set of traffic lights lol.
I had an MV Brutale 910 and it was an awesome bike. I hear the latest ones are even nicer. They have great acceleration, high spec and sound incredible. The KTM Superduke is a great bike though. I haven't tried the Triumphs but loads of people rate them.
I was actually planning and looking to buy one when I got my blade. (cb1000r) I call it the space mouse. If you look at the headlight it looks like a futureistic aliean mouse lol. I didnt get one because for a decent one I would have had to find another £800 to £1000 that i didnt have. Will be my next bike though.
Dont like thinking (alternative) would prefer,as well as WR450 or the like new Norton Bmw R1200GS That would do me to be honest!
I very nearly purchased a CB1000R around 6 months ago. Decided against it in the end as the level of equipment was low for the price. I would still like one though!
Triumph Street Triple, great wee bike. Cant recommend them enough. If you get a chance ride one. Much better than the speed in my opinion
At the moment it would have to be the Diavel. Most people agree its a great bike but most of all it'd make me feel like Judge Dredd.
