RVF Dilema

Post by benjy_b »

Hey Guys,

I'm having a little dilema when it comes to choosing an RVF. The reason being is that I can't decide on whether to buy a minter or to buy something a little used and modify it.

My intention when riding the bike is to travel a little in europe, weekend blasts, the odd commute and possibly the odd track day. At the moment I feel that buying something that has only been kept in a front living room would be pointless and I would not do the bike justice by putting miles on it and increasing the risk of damage.

I also like the look of the tyga tail units and exhausts, but could find it hard to justify fitting these to an immaculate model.

On the other hand, an impecable RVF would be a pleasure to own, keeping a mint service history and reciepts and also keeping its value better.

Can you guys shed some light?!

Regards,

Ben

I bought the only one I could find, I couldn't be real picky about what I got! :lol:

You have a much greater selection than what we have here, and we probably pay a lot more. :(
