RantMachine Posted June 22, 2016 Posted June 22, 2016 Very very nice! Certainly wouldn't mind one of those myself. Good time to snap it up too, seeing as the big singles are going the way of the dinosaur after this year! I'm sure the used prices will make a bit of a jump accordingly. Quote
Paul-Kent Posted June 26, 2016 Author Posted June 26, 2016 http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b58/pcritcher/bikes/83BA9AA3-25E1-4CC6-BA4A-FE19932DEE85_zpsqqvhuhua.jpgPicked it up yesterday, 5 hours later I got home after taking bit of a scenic route along the A515 before jumping on the M1Nearly made it home without a drenching. As soon as i joined the M25 I knew I couldnt avoid a soaking and I certainly got one! The surface water was pretty bad so I dawdled along at a steady pace Apart from that, the ride was amazing, great bike, very pleased, need to get it in the shed to fit some toys but the gateway is too narrow Trip to Wickes as soon as I get paid me thinks!

Hoggs Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 In the shop window there was this thingasking price 41k H2R? I saw a second hand H2 going for about 18k... Shame it has a digital odometer as I was really curious how many miles the previous owner had done before he realised he'd made a terrible terrible mistake Quote
Paul-Kent Posted June 27, 2016 Author Posted June 27, 2016 Can't recall what it was.The road version is cheaper apparently, that was purely a track bike Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
RantMachine Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 I saw someone picking up one of those at Colchester Kawasaki Some folks are just made of money... Quote
Hoggs Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Can't recall what it was.The road version is cheaper apparently, that was purely a track bike Yeah the H2R is the track only at 41k the road version (H2) is loads cheaper at a BARGAIN 22k! Quote
rapid Posted July 3, 2016 Posted July 3, 2016 Nice XT! I had an XT660X, loved it. That engine is bulletproof, you just can't kill them (trust me I inadvertently tried as this was my first "big" bike!)Excellent Yamaha build quality as usual, and you gotta love that thump! Quote
Paul-Kent Posted July 3, 2016 Author Posted July 3, 2016 I started with an X, then had an R now have the lovely Z Quote
Paul-Kent Posted August 25, 2016 Author Posted August 25, 2016 Another pic taken today whilst I was out testing the retrofitted standard pipe, the after market one was just a bit too loudhttp://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b58/pcritcher/bikes/E3EC092C-5F1D-4896-807D-8958BF2A62ED_zpsiuy6lz8g.jpg Quote
