Question

Come on then, I'm looking at replacing my recently sold Blackbird with a Mille and don't know which to go for?

I'm sort of leaning towards the R, but then should I go for a 2000MY bike or pay an extra £1,500.00 for a 2001MY bike?

Are my abilities likely to need the full Ohlins of the R and altered engine position/steering head angle???

Then who are the cheapest deals that you know of?


Mike.
(Fully comp Ins = £890.00)

Doh! Not biting today are you Mike?

LOL

GTi in Newcastle - 0191 297 0660

I'm about your age (maybe younger? ), the bike is garaged overnight, I have a rural postcode & although 6 pts in the last 5 years, 7yrs+ of NCB

Also in the Sun today is the differences your general location in the country makes to your insurance. Me - I'm Cambridge & that seems to be one of the better areas, so possibly N'ham goes against you.

Give 'em a go. No special affiliation but we've put quite a few of our couriers through 'em with good results.

BTW that's a rider policy (or whatever they call it nowadays), £250xs & protected NCB as well
