    The 800 XRX was one of the nicest bikes I've ridden in a very long time and I wanted it hugely - but that cost 12500€.

    The 955i is a lovely machine with loads of character and cost 3800€ - you tell me which is best??????

    Ade wants to know she will be looked after in the custom she is use to for the 2 grand not just flung aside and not used I bet she has got lots of years left in her and when she belongs to you she will be entitled to half of your estate:D.
