  • If newer is on the agenda, the 790 KTM looks a proper giggle. I luuurve the sound of triples...I'd totally have a stripped down Daytona as a second bike for the occasional thrash if I had a bigger wallet / garage.

    RC51 is a decent shout - they're beautifully put together and are at the point you can't lose money on them short of putting it in a ditch.

    Don't know about UK prices but late model Aprilia RSV and Tuono twins are amazingly good and silly value here. They are absolutely beautiful bikes to ride - my friend's 09 Tuono is the most pleasing all around, loony tool I've ridden in ages. The frame is a thing of real beauty and the rotax engine is an absolute peach. He paid $4k!

  • Seen a few of them out here, sound and look sweet, if tiny! But out of my budget for sure.

    Rc51 sp1 and for sure sp2 are beautiful but go for strong money these days. A ‘classic’ and priced so.

  • Definitely have a go on the RSV / Tuono - they are way more complete and sophisticated than I imagined. Really lovely bikes.
