I tried a Blackbird. I never realised riding a realy big bike could be so easy. In fact, it was so clinical in everything it did it put me off.

I have to say that I love my 749S.When I get the Termi's fitted and some more sporty rubber I think the lust will increase. In an ideal world I would love to keep it and spoil it and ride it gently on the odd occasion. However if in a couple of years I do not feel I am at Pan/Wing/Cruiser stage of my life,I will be keeping a close look out for:

Ducat1 V4-900/1000

Aprilia Mille-next generation.

Thing is I can consider the Italian stuff as my bike is my toy and does not get hammered by the weather. If it dont shine...I dont ride! I think regular breakdowns and mechanical failure are generally a thing of the past.(Accepting that I had one recently! )

prolly dump the girlie bike i'm riding now and get a Harley


seriously... I'd like to get a R1200GS but the budget is more likely a DL1000, I also want to get a KTM supermoto, but again, the budget is more likely a DRZ400SM

I want a big bike that is capable of pulling a trailer with either my SV on it or a supermoto

theres a new triumph on the horrizon, the 675 triple. ive got my eye on that little baby, looks amazing! 120bhp and the most pointy styling anyone could want.

Would love a triumph of the right spec, other than that an Aprillia Tuono is tempting.

Cant see a reason to change the SV at the moment though, its great fun and finacially friendly.

Think I'd go for an R6 or maybe an R1 - BUT it all depends on being able to touch the ground.

I tried to have a go on my hubbies R1 but he'd stopped it on a very slight camber on the road, so when I tried to get on, I was very nearly pushing it over!!

He says I'd like the smoothness of a 4 cyl!! I had a go on his Fazer 1000, with him as pillion. Having his weight on the back meant it lowered enough for me to touch the ground!! That was smooth.

I'm not sure, tho as I love my SV.
