Street Triple. Or maybe a Daytona 675.

Or a boring, comfortable BMW for long distance motorway riding if I move to Wiltshire. Hopefully I'd have some change out of the 6 grand for a decent pipe and nice pair of slippers to go with it.

Did consider but would want the RS which 1K more. Didnt actually ever go for a ride as I spent fifteen minutes having a cup of tea watching a bloke desperately trying to find neutral so he could start it at Bury Hill one Sunday. He was bragging big time about it being a proper bike and how it swamps the SVs etc but got irate when I pointed that my SV650 naked was quicker - looked at me like I was crackers until I pointed out that the time he had taken to find neutral I could have been home!
