Just had a wee shufty at the video mthee posted. Oh dear!
What is that all about?
All up weight wet is 213kg or in Imperial weight 470lbs! An SRX600 twin shock, fully fuelled is only 172kg or 380lbs and with a similar 44BHP output, on slimmer tyres the SRX will be a nicer bike to ride.
A well sorted SRX can be had for under £2K and depreciation is likely to be minimal.
Why would you buy this?
I just don't get it!
Not to mention the 42 carat P...... getting his BSA and Royal Enfield rifles emblems mixed, amongst other things!
As an aside, out for a canter this afternoon through the windblow to the west of us, on the Duke, 127kg, or 280lbs, with about 30-35BHP and 3"x18" front and 3.50"x18" rear tyres, you just think it through the curves!
Temperature was sitting at 2°C, but much of the road was dry and the old bird was on a light throttle at 55mph to 60mph for most of the way! Had a coffee and chocolate eclair whilst looking west up Loch Earn and decided that when the gritter went past it was probably time to head home. Wash down, leaf blower dry off, then back in the garage.
Keep wearing them out!
Good health, Bill
