Quote:The R1250r has got under my skin, the boxer engine is smooth and torquey and the bike is quick comfortable and is very flickable, I also like it’s charachter of rocking the bike left when you blip the throttle.
I would have one tomorrow if something happened to my fazer thou.
I very nearly popped up to the dealer last Sunday to place an order. My impression after a 2hr test ride was that it’s a superb bike.
However, VNA has knee issues again right now. I’m keen on hill walking, so I’m gutted I can’t get out. I’m trying to get them working for me again, but, I might need cash for a private referral. And if a specialist Orthopaedic surgeon can help, well even if I can get it done on the NHS, I’ll not be riding my bike for a while if I’m recovering from knee surgery.
So it’s on hold. Might yet go for it for September, but more likely march - I think.
