Laxed out rides

**wysper** · 27th April 2010, 14:49

Hey guys...

anyone here had much experience with the older F650s. The ones the called the funduro's that were designed by aprillia.
I am thinking about trading the SV on one.

Would love a GSX1400 but cant find enough cash - or find a gsx cheap enough. Depends on how you look at it really.

More people! Its good riding with 10-20 others. Although i do enjoy the small ones from time to time.

I had one a few years back, not a bad bike at all, very reliable with the rotax engine, cant go wrong if you want a 50/50 bike, it aint a fast bike or super good at anything but reliable none the less

Might even come for a beer tommorrow night... I'll probably end up with a 675 too ckai, though I plan on not putting mine into a ditch

Go on. You know you want too. But don't make the same mistake as me and not film it. I could have made shitloads from selling the footage to "Distroyed in Seconds".

It'll be interesting to see if you still have that opinion when you test ride other supersports. I didn't need too because I knew straight away but some people think they're a bit basic. They're friggin' awesome though. It'll be good to slowly take off the LOR with Trumpies.

Too many jappa's around.

It goes back to that comforting thing with do to each other.

I really should have claimed commision from Trumiph on your 675 ckai

I might come for the ride this sunday as the missus/supposedly better half, is timekeeping at pukekohe.

might be the go then. It is in my price bracket at least, unlike the KTM

Yes but it was my cool blue that sold even more

I'm giving hamilton MC a tinkly today to see if they know when beastie is gonna arrive. If hell freezes over, expect to see me down there with some new wheels as well. I may bring myself to riding the wifes...dunno.

You damn near stepped off my bike & in the door of a Triumph dealer for a daytona.. That should give me partial commision on your "cool blue" which sold even more

Still i'd recommend going and test riding the others to see just how beautiful a bike the daytona is (or not is, if your some kind of weirdo.

)
