Haha, well, I've been to Daytona, but I don't have a Daytona.

What is it with these expensive Greenies? Are people finally appreciating the beauty?

Well, this one’s off the market. Earlier I was mentioning a friend of mine who got the bug bad when I let him ride my bike.

And the clip-ons... B)

And the side covers? And the airbox? And the rear fender . . . ;)

I mean, I have a RedFrame Sport, so I bought mine new with half the bloody motorbike missing . . .:whistle:

G'day folk's.

I've been reading the March issue of Bike magazine.

There's a piece in it about our V11's being classy/ good looking and overlooked...

Also reckon's in the UK prices are round the 6 k mark and rising!

He does mention the weight and that performance is underwhelming but charming, yet in another part of the mag they test the new Norton 961 and are complimentary about it's 77 horsepower and 230kilo weight!

My V11 has roughly 84 at the wheel and weight of about 215 ish dry and I'm pretty happy with it and have no problem with it's weight either on the move or in the garage!

Certainly don't want or need a 200h/p sub 200kg guided missile that has to be neutered so mere mortals can ride it to the shops!

Anyhoo sounds like more folk are starting to notice our bikes!

Cheers

Mine has 78 HP on the chassis dyno and it's got a pipe and PC.  I don't know what it weighs with me on it, perhaps over the limit?

It's gotta a nice power curve matched to the transmission and is a hoot to ride.

 agree that nice bikes aren't losing any money.  It's a classic for what it is.  Nothing looks better, sounds better, or handles much better for that size.
