Plenty of weekend trips to the 'Ring, Ardennes and beyond.

Or I may hand in my resignation
New bike option there is terrrable tbh.

had really wide chicken stripes on my old conti tyre, changed it to an Avon and they are allready noticably smaller, given me a lot more confidence in the bike

Indeed I think choosing the right tyres make a massive diffenence to confidence feel and obviously grip.

Indeed. It would make the others look so bad it wouldn't be a list any longer

Id say out of those then the 675. The Ducati is too expensive and the IL4 requires gear changes

Having browsed second hand prices a Mille may be on the list too, 675 Daytonas are pretty pricey 2nd hand in Holland

To avoid tax implications I'd have to own it for six months here before I move across. And the end of August is a little too soon for this now. There is then the cost & paperwork of registering the bike on the other side, possible inspections etc Too much hassle for me really.
