After over 7.5 years with the Blackbird I really fancy a change of bike. That's not to say I don't enjoy riding the old beast - we had a rather shakey start, something along the lines of 'why the hell do people like these?' Living with it though I've grown to love this bike, but to be honest now it's just so unecessary and I'd probably enjoy bimbling around on something with...
1. Less power
2. More comfort
3. More fun-factor on back roads (of which there are absolutely loads in Lincs)
4. Better fuel economy
The Versys appeals because I quite like the look of them, the motor seems proven, and out with a friend a while ago (who owns an ER-6) it's not exactly short of real-world zip. Cheap too, and Kwak have some very good 0% deals on at the moment.
Thanks all.
Of course there's also the Honda NC700X but something in me just thinks 'no' when I see one.
Or....
I could just think 'fuggit' and buy Big Rob's gorgeous 11S.
