    Depends if there are good examples of used 16's at decent prices, my mindset is that if I buy in winter it would be cheaper, much like buying a soft top car in winter really

    Welcome Mark , Newbie myself and find the forum really good. Recently bought an older bike from a dealer who also had a few speed triples in .
    Stunning bikes ! Good luck with your search or have you an eye on a particular one already?

    Not yet, I had an argument with a tree in my car and the tree decided to take it out on my foot, breaking it in two places, I have just begun to walk again so was going to arrange a test ride next week
