I took one out 3 weeks ago on a view to purchasing.... fabulous bike and handles a dream. Weird feeling revving at lights and the bike dips to the right....

It would have been epic, but need a replacement for my blade for euro trips, and while the nine rt was superb for uk blasts out, I need something like zzr1400 for comfier trips away.

It is an epic bike though, loved it!

Love those boxers, plenty of quirky character

Just bought this (Triumph Speed Triple RS) a few weeks ago to go with my Triumph Bobber:

I'd like to add a sports bike to the collection, but can't decide between the 899 or 959 Panigale. I'm also really like the Indian Flat Tracker at the moment.

As a recent convert to bikes I had an ER6F for two months after my test then sold it in February and changed to what I really wanted all along.

This is my Indian Scout 1200. I've done almost 3000 miles on it since collecting it in March.

The M is doing a lot less miles now.

I recent placed my 2014 blade with a BMW S1000XR, it’s made me enjoy riding so much more again after 18yrs of sports bikes.

A couple of mates I ride with have them. Devastatingly quick cross country in the right hands.
I've downsized to a KTM 790 Duke and loving it

Few of mine over the last 10 years... loved the Triumph, handling was epic. The blade I had since new in 2011 and did 40,000 miles on it.... travelled all over Europe and track days. Never let me down. Got a few speed tickets on it, and chopped it in for the Ducati supersport last year.

Also working on a winter project converting a suzuki volusia into a soft tail bobber, kept me busy in the lockdowns

Had my Royal Enfield 500 classic for a little over a year now, it’s slow with a dated engine design but oozes character-also averages over 90mpg touring round the Somerset lanes. It’s a keeper

Been looking for an Enfield 650 if I can find one that’s been binned cheap enough.... want to turn it into something like this..

I’ll probably always have a sporty bike for the foreseeable, but want a second one for blasting about on....and something to do.
