    Hi everyone,

    As a 26 six year old with an newly found fascination for cafe racers, I am almost certain in buying a street cup 2018 model next week!

    I have my motorcycle license for 8 years now, drove multiple different brand of bikes (mostly old bikes) and my last bike was a Yellow Triumph Daytona T595, but I had to sell it last year.

    Today I made an testride on a Bonneville t100, because I cannot find any Street cup for a test ride available in my surroundings. At least I could feel the performance of the engine via this way. The street cup (silver) is really good priced as a brand new, 0km bike so I am considering taking the risk to just purchase the bike.

    So I have some good food for thoughts these coming two days. I hope to contribute my knowledge and gain the same here on this forum !

    Hi and welcome Jelly, interesting handle. There is no better feeling than investigating, researching and making the decision to buy a motorbike. If your heart is set, just go do it......

    Hi Joe, yes I did check out the Thruxton and I would love to own one, but the street cup will be +- €9000,- and the Thruxton +- 14000,- and because of the fact that the money tree in my garden keeps getting robbed by the government I need to make some comprises :(
