Re: Sprint ST 1050, V-Strom 1000 and FZS1.
Lol cheers Martin, I can assure you that time travel is indeed possible as long as you're carrying enough corner speed I've lost the urge to go everywhere fast since I went to Scotland... now I just want to go further & ride for longer. I looked at gs1150's for about 2 minutes but then closed the browser and slapped myself across the face

Re: Sprint ST 1050, V-Strom 1000 and FZS1.
It's got to be the Sprint mate. You're doing the sensible thing looking at the other options, but right now you have the Sprint up on a pedestal and you're looking in vain to find something that appeals to you more in your price bracket. I don't think you will. If you actually saw a bargain and bought something other than the Sprint, in a year or so time you'd be thinking about trading it out for the Sprint again I reckon!
Buy a Sprint. Get those rosey specs removed so you can say you've had one and used it with a vengeance and then flog it for something else next year if it isn't right for you. That's my thinking batgirl.

Re: Sprint ST 1050, V-Strom 1000 and FZS1.
Big trailies are all the rage at the moment.
If you buy sensible you can suck it and see if it works for you. If not sell it later and it shouldn't take a big depreciation hit. Being sensible for a bit the Bavarians have that corner pretty sorted.

Re: Sprint ST 1050, V-Strom 1000 and FZS1.
I dont think anyone would be gutted with a sprint.
If by chance you go for a Fazer give me a shout as I know someone flogging one. |
