  • Yeah.

    I’m moving back to London, so probebrly shouldn’t be a Ducati any time soon. Might just get a scooter instead. Or an sv 1000. Or a faze 1000. But I think blackbird has had its time, it’s too big and heavy for my weedy frame.

  • Ah noice noice! North or South of the river?

    If I had to move back to the city, I'd go for a scooter as well. My sister just got her CBT and is looking into getting one as well. Insurance is shockingly high for them as I guess the current spate of theft and use of them is what did it.
    SV1000 is nice, but it's just as low slung as the blackbird. SV's sit quite low as well, so with your long ass legs, you'll feel cramped I reckon.

    Thundercat? ZX800? CB1000?

  • Mate has a yamaha majesty 400 I think, a maxi scooter I guess you'd call it. If I was to live in London and commuter / grocery go getter / have fun on some roads on my days off. I'd prob get something like that. 400 single has plenty of torque and can sit on motorway happy. Also get lots of wind protection, which is important for commuting less against wind, more against rain and spray. Arriving at work not soaked through or even just keeping your outer layer that bit more sheltered makes a huge difference

  • South.

    Yeah good point about the Sv. Maybe I should just buy superduke 990! Sure itd he stolen in a week :(
