Got the bug

[Terry]

Hi
getting my new RR on Friday (well it's done 500 miles), had a RR on loan while having warranty work on my R1200RS; it reminded me what biking is all about after a couple of years on sensible (ish) BMW's and just had to have my own. All I've heard about them is absolutely right, what a machine. A few years ago had a 996 which I thought was good but things have really moved on.

Hi Terry, welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new bike . Are you adding it to the garage or changing your RS to it?

 

[Terry]

Hi, I'm changing the RS which was a daily ride, but going to buy a commuter as well, something like an old vfr that doesn't matter how many miles go on it. I did think about keeping the RS as wewell but having two newish bikes ties up too much money.

Welcome along. A VFR or a Blackbird would make a great hack. Gaffa22 on here is selling a Black CBR1100-XX Blackbird for a good price, I was going to get it till buying a car took precedence.

Welcome to the forum Terry!
I'm selling my VFR 750 because I can't justify keeping it with the S1000 in the garage!

What colour did you get?
