Default So what has the twin bro bought now

He phoned me last night to get a valuation, I text back my guess, he had already bought it.

So what has he bought this time?

Clue, his last bikes have been ss900, zx636, cbr1000, gsxr750, Mille R and a succession of loan ducatis 999, 749, 1198, Desmosedici, monster etc. This doesn't fit the mould!. He says he is too old for biking, so what would an old man buy?

I can appreciate where he is coming from - I went SV650, GSXR600, GSXR750, ZX636, Harley XL1200 Sportster (it was a toss up between this an a BMW GS). I'm old before my years!

Well it looks like he has only bought it to deal it.

Stuck the trade plates on, got it back. He needs to clean it and stick it in the for sale.
