  • They're all good thanks, became a "step-grandfather" last week.

    So my thinking is:

    Panigale because of performance
    KTM because old-school/analogue and rarely seen
    MV because sexy as fuck
    Aprilia because possibly the best package overall
    Bimmer because sensible option, relatively speaking...

  • I've seen all of those in the flesh and the 1299s and MV are the most special looking by a mile (the RC is extremely choice.)
    The Aprilia is ACE but not that interesting under 7k. The 1299 must be mental from the get go. I rode a 1198 which felt like getting hit in the face with a bat and the 1299 has more everywhere....

  • Ha ha gramps.

    Have ridden the MV brutale 800 and 1000 on a race track and both were far better thane and my crack handedness.

    All those bikes will pass 70 without out even breaking a sweat ;)

    Even as a Ducati lover I've got to say MV.
    How about a Guzzi as I like them even if they are tractors by comparison.

    If you get an MV try and get one that was looked after by xbikes. As they were the MV race team and did a great deal of work/parts for the MV.
