I’m An (ex) Ape Man

Discussion in 'Other Bikes' started by Expat Jack, Apr 30, 2022.

  1. After much tooth sucking and procrastinating I have gone and chopped out my Daytona 765 Moto2.

    All my bikes are (were) full fat sports bikes and, well, what’s the point of that?

    You all probably know I like Triumphs as well as Ducati. But the 1200rr makes me feel a little ill. So ugly and pretty screwed up riding position (low pegs, lower bars).

    So, supernaked it is. Streetfighter? Too expensive and serious. Superduke. Seriously?

    Dog fight between 1200RS and Tuono.

    No contest. My new bike:-

    2021, very late. 112 miles. Full Ti system etc etc.

    Any bike that lets the rider change the cruise control button to adjust wheelie control on the fly gets my vote.

    So. One everyday bike. This one. One dedicated track bike. GSXR. One beautiful bike for high days and holidays. Pani Bayliss (eventually).

    Happy days. Off to destroy the rear tyre tomorrow.

  5. They’re so good my riding bud has 2, a 2021 and a 2020. I’m sure he has the exact same model as yours, sounds gorgeous and looks same. Enjoy ownership.
