It's going to be a tricky time for me... apparently, any more bikes and we're getting a pet cat. I don't want a pet cat but I do ...

Re: Time for a new bike?

I'm a time waster, I told you I was. Bought a zx6r today... I know. Nothing in common with a vtr, but hey - I like making split second decisions.

Let's be honest - I'm probably a timewaster

Try again - I really do think I'm going to buy another Firestorm this time. They'll keep up with owt on the roads - in the right hands. These hands! :) :) I'm having trouble bringing myself to buy a cheap one - have you seen the state of the downpipes?? I can't easily find new replacements at a reas...

Don't know if you'll be able to open this...

1999...£1200


£1200 looks a lot more like it! - how cheap do these go for now?

If it's the spec you're after, buy it.
If you want something different, buy a not so good one at half the price and get it to the spec you want.

No point paying top dollar then changing everything.
can't reply to the ad' yet. :roll:

Re: Time for a new bike?

Hmm, could be right. Looking at the MOT history it's done a few miles each year though so not a stationary museum piece. It has no goodies. It does look like a new bike, that's all. I realise I can get one for half that price these days... this though, I think, I could happily keep for a decade. It'...
