doug m Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 Haven't been on line too much lately, I recently picked up an 05 749r, almost mint with 3200 kms.It is one beautiful sport -race bike.It was too good a deal to pass up....even if I have to part with one or two of my other bikes, as much as I'd hate to see any of them go. The wife may divorce me on this one....
Slavomir Musilek (R.I.P.) Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 hm... 05+ year... real beauty... the 749/999 desing still reminds me od 2001 Space Odyssey... Can't help myself safe ride to you both
DeBenGuzzi Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 I love the 749/999 I think they were just ahead of their time, They are at the very least unique and just as good if not better a track weapon than the 1098 given it has smaller displacement with a much lower price tag but it is also easier to live with. Good purchase!

Looks like a dirt bike as well. I can sort of see duplication with a couple spine frames,,,,, but honestly, 5 bikes, should be not an issue. Tell her she can buy a few more shoes!!!! Steve

Richard Z Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Very sweet Bike... I settled for the Paul Smart for myself... Hard to call it a mistress though....

jrt Posted December 2, 2009 Posted December 2, 2009 Her shoes vs my bikes. Always worked for me. Uh oh. I've got more bikes than she has pairs of shoes. Say, maybe I'M the mistress..... I'll take it.

doug m Posted December 6, 2009 Author Posted December 6, 2009 Very sweet Bike... I settled for the Paul Smart for myself... Hard to call it a mistress though.... I was thinking cash flow-wise, as one can spend a pile of money maintaining them, not to mention all the tasty add ons one can purchase. I'm not really into kinky sex with my bikes...or am I ?.... I always liked the design of the Paul Smart replicas. Really nice bikes.
helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 but then I'd have to....... .... have to what?
