I'd like one... But with your history, spares availability might be an issue

I like them, but think an 03 SV1000n would be a more sensible bet (and they're certainly around at very sensible prices).

Well engine spares shouldn't be a problem as its a tl engine, its just crash damage that would make it a nightmare to get bits for. I know some one who had a raptor a he loved it, with the twin art cans it sounded like thunder. It was the V-Raptor too, which to be honest is a bit extreme, looked mental with flat bars though.

 What were they thinking of with the v-raptor? The naked is gorgeous as it is. Those cans are nice, but the pipework's awful. The standard design's so neat, it's a shame to ruin it.
