Or unless you'd like to buy my bike? Black GS500F (ie the one with the full fairing) - great as a winter hack! And the Scorpion can makes it much more fun.

Bigape, is that not a RIDICULOUSLY low price for a Deuville? You complete git, etc...

If I was buying a winter hack, it'd probably be a C90. Cheap as anything, indestructible, but if by sheer skill you do kill it you can just throw it in the bin and get another one. Plus it would make me appreciate the SV even more when I got back on

Yes it was a steal. It came with the touring screen, hand guards, heated grips and Honda topbox.

It's done 92500 miles (ish) but yes as good as 100k. It had around 75k on it when I bought it.

It actually looks quite How many people do you know have the black leather look

It's dirty I'll give you that. But that's what a hack is for. No cleaning for me.
