Well shitty bike or not? It did the job so thats all I care about. I had the car license and a car also so just dont assume about stuff that you really dont know

Mate...if the '09 R1 is in your budget, swing that way. Take one for a ride if you haven't yet - preferably with aftermarket cans. If that doesn't win your heart over the MV... then I give up, you and I are of a different ilk! IMO it is better in EVERY WAY than the MV.

Yes That R1 is one of the top bike on my list, the other one is a Ducati 848 and one of my mate is going to check it out on this wednesday. So I hope to bite one of 'em if not I 'll just wait until something else comes up.

I have no comments about other bikes, but if you are considering ducati 848 you might as well look at Daytona 675.

Might do and I'm really fussy about the color ( i prefer em in red ) but some of the 2012 + looks not too bad either so yeah I will test ride one of em at the local motorbike shop to see how they are. Thanks for the advise.

But it is entertaining.

A thread about buying a bike.

You must be a Trademe favorite. No offence but no wonder people write "no time wasters please" on their advertisement.

It doesnt matter what I buy ( Japanese or Italian ) cos People gonna nag about it anyway so I've decided to buy something that I really like and hey its just going to be my 2nd bike upgrade so it dont matter if I end up buying the wrong one cos I can always learn from it and buy a better one next time.

I think I'm very close. That Ducati 848 ( Red ) is sold also and the R1 is kinda reserved by someone so that will be finaized on this Wednesday if not it'll be mine
