Funny that,, I swapped a boat for a bike a few years ago...... which became another bike, then another, then a p/x on a Landrover !

I looked at the Super Ten, and I really wanted to want it, but just couldn't. In all honesty it was *too* perfect for what I want, I'd be bored with in in no time and to be fair after seeing Selina's in March, then again in May I just thought it was the right bike for the needs I have it for, it can tour, pillion tour (which is the main reason) but it'll be good on our crappy roads too (not excellent like the Tenere), much cheaper than the S10, and a local dealer helps too.
Also looked at the Versys,, in my humble opinion it sucks donkey dik and shouldn't be allowed on the roads, god it's awful! So I looked at the 1000 Versys, and wasn't keen. The Multistrada was a firm favourite, but at nearly twice the cost of the Tiger there wasn't really any justification, and while the tiger isn't the bike the Multistrad is, it's certainly more than half the bike, so I'm happy.
I always wanted to fly the British flag, but there was never the right bike,, now there is, and I can.
