Was at a bike auction earlier in the week.
A 1998 50000mile Blackbird went through for £1600. Still looked like the day it left the factory too. The thought did cross my mind as to whether i could use it instead of the sv this winter!! Mega novelty value in having a Blackbird winter bike!! |

I've just switched from a GSXR600 all year round bike to a FJR1300.....
I've removed the panniers for commuting

How about a GSX-R600 K6?
I'm sure that's gonna weather the winter nicely...
