    Hi All, looking for advice
    I have a 2020 Bobber black, just over 100 miles on it. I was thinking about P/X ing for the 2021 Bobber.
    The main reasons are the bigger tank and Euro 5.

    But I do think I may be doing this for the wrong reasons, (shiney,new, want it, etc)

    I've never P/X before so would be grateful of anyones recent experiences before I speak to the dealer

    TIA

    The Tank is solely range -
    I've been asked to go on group rides and There's one I'd do to go to Belgium so that's where I thought the Euro5 may have an impact

    I'll jump on the website now thanks

    The style of the bobber doesn’t really lend itself to a touring type bike imo?
    I can understand the fuel range being on the smaller side as a bigger tank would obviously be nice but the financial hit is going to be big for an extra litre or two.....
    I'd stick with what you have.

    With any of the trips I've done aboard on bike the Euro number has never been an issue.

    I think you'll lose a wedge of cash changing your bike just for a litre or two of fuel.

    As D2T, I'd stick with your old bike and enjoy the ride:sun:

    Thanks All
    Other than the totally legitimate but expensive 'shiny, want it' approach I'll stick with what I have

    Cheers again!

    Euro5 is not a factor for travelling at all, if that were the case then 95% of all vehicles in the UK would be ineligible to travel abroad so then you are only looking at tank capacity. I get going from 9 L to 12 L might be attractive but is it thousands of pounds worth of attractive......only you can answer that one mate ;)
