So Who Picked Up A New Bike On 1st March

I plead innocent your honour as I was only reminiscing

It was that geezer who posted before me that was the quilty party your honour

 

I admit it. I got a new bike on 1st March. Well new to me so does that count?? Oh and my first car back in 1983 was a 1965 Morris Mini 850. It ran on crossplies (remember them) and had a gearlever as long as my arm. Literally! Great fun that car!

 

Definitely counts! Me too, but I bought it yesterday on the 2 March!

 

That’s the same as the one I had
Brilliant fun with it’s waggly front end coming out of bends and giving it the berries
Can I ask how much you paid for it

 

How long did it stay that colour before you painted it Black

 

They are a wild bike, I sold my RRR Urban Tiger last year and I’ve been waiting for while to pick up the right early RRN or RRP, this one is superb and I had to pay strong money for it, but there are not many out there this good.

 

Very true, this was my RRR when I bought it

 

Well Dilli, never realised you used to be a hooligan on a blade

 

Well I was going to change my Tiger for a new one but decided not to bother in the end. Does that count?

 

I was all set to mate and I've test ridden the new one. I like the TFT dash, as it's clearly visible in all light conditions, but apart from that the bike is essentially the same. To get a matching spec to my current one would have cost around £1300.00 over what I paid for mine originally so not that keen. Will probably keep this one another year and then buy a low mileage replacement new model.

 

You wouldn’t have spoiled the new bike with panniers would you

 

Oh yeah

And you can get four cans of beer under the seat

 

Well I certainly wouldn't have put a POS topbox on it!

 

Always my number 1 priority when buying a bike

 

So trying to get the thread somewhere back on track ... I've ordered a Speed Twin, but no delivery date yet

 

I got my dream bike..........Bonneville T120 Black

 

Waiting for my 2019 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE to arrive. My dealer keeps saying “any day now.”
