update.. Thursday went out on a test ride on Sprint GT in Guilford.
ok so riding position wasn't 100% comfy at first, bit more forward sports bike against the fazer but it is lot bigger bike.
having never riden anything this big or expensive was nervous at 1st but soon got used to it.
the thing is after the 45 minute ride i wasn't grinning from ear to ear and whilst I like the idea of a bigger bike & the deals that were put on the table I wasn't snapping his hand off.
at weekend had chat with Mrs R & have decided to wait a year. for a few economic reasons and the fact that my bike, unless something major happens to it isn't going to depreciate in value by too much.
Just got to get the Topbox I bought last year fitted & I reckon I'll be set for another 12 months of fun on my fazer600
