Haha, that wasnt long at all! Have you had the Fazer a shorter amount of time than the trophy?
Can't even remember how long I had the Trophy for Bud & I had the Vulcan as well before the Fazer but all my past bikes have given me the experience now to make an informed decision on my Major purchase.
Cutting the Bull though I honestly don't think you know a bike until you actually own it as it's not just riding it out for a blast it's using it on Long runs & how comfortable it is, How much luggage you can safely carry, How easy it is to work on/service etc, How easy it is to store & get it in & out when you want to, How it handles with You riding it rather than the "reports" you may have read here & there etc etc etc I'm glad I've been through the bikes I've owned otherwise I'd go get my big wad out or finance myself up with something that won't suit me long term & I'd be *******. Now with what I know & all that I've learnt over the last few years & with all you lot helping & the other Biker mates I mix with I can spend every single penny I can get my hands on & buy something that will be the Best I've ever owned & should be nigh on Perfect in every way for Me.
I didn't get anywhere near a shop or even look for any bikes/info as a few COBs were going for a run out so I met up with them & off we went, I met them in Leicester & we went up the curly roads Market Harborough way ending up at Foxton locks for a cold shandy & a chin wag, Got back around 3.30pm I think it was & had an Epic blast on the way home with 2 of the COBs'. When you are with the right riders it's awesome making good progress when riding in close formation it kind of heightens the sensation/buzz.
Off up The Vic tonight as it's the weekly COB meeting place but I won't stay long just show my face & off I'll pop. Epic route between me & the Vic & I know it well so it should be a "pleasant" run.
