Some great bikes in amongst this lot !! Some proper 10 pinters too! If only I had an understanding bank manager.
In fairness to the bike, it had a recurring overfuelling problem on the front carb that SP Motorcycles, despite many attempts failed to track down. Eventually, in desperation, they stripped the carb completely and found a perished O ring as the cause. But it meant that, if it felt like it it would decide to drown the front plug at a whim on start up. Once running it was fine, but get the start sequence slightly wrong and you were going nowhere.
Heaven - Desmo or Augusta 312 (the £50 K one) Hell - Gotta be the Goldwing. Like your choices Jimbo, a mate has the 1198 and it is so beautiful.
