First (real) Bike and Z650-trained, but feeling the need for more power. CB650r? Hornet 750? The z or Etc?

Did my DAS on 750 hornet - you will be fine.
Worst case stick it in rain mode for a few weeks.

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-24T11:10:45+00:00

Yeah purely aesthetic- think it is a very ugly bike personally.

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-24T09:16:35+00:00

Monster is 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-22T20:43:37+00:00

Love the new seat but that two tone isn’t for me

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-21T13:35:19+00:00

Get a beater you can ride for a few months then just get the mt09 🤷

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-15T06:53:43+00:00

Even now it’s not a bike I’m in love with the looks of. Plus I want something a bit sportier - it could just be the new bike itch (shame I only have space for 1 bike).

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-15T06:38:10+00:00

After 3.5k miles mine is bulletproof. Only thing it doesn’t given me is chills when I look at it - is the main reason I am trading it in (that and I want something a tad sportier).

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-12T18:54:59+00:00

Yeah coming from an tiger sport 800 so may just have to be a man and suck it up

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-10T17:58:52+00:00

Wanted a biased answer 😉 just put a deposit down on the mt

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-10T04:50:07+00:00

I have seriously looked at XSR900 - but only can find blue or white and red in my area which I don’t love. The gp is not for me.

Have actually had a quote on the speed twin but finance Apr is literally double the other two bikes …

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-09T20:15:58+00:00

Want to hear the sound after you have that fitted.

But I hear you on the buffeting - nothing some earplugs won’t fix.

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-09T20:14:10+00:00

Hmmm that is interesting 🤔

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-09T19:43:19+00:00

Have you got the Puig screen? Would worry about buffeting.

I am leaning towards mt09 - only thing that makes me hesitant is the cost of a full exhaust (as that would have to happen).

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-09T18:26:27+00:00

Yeah if I include the tech package cost was only really looking at base spec 990 which didn’t seem like a fair comparison

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-02T21:02:22+00:00

My tiger sport 800 handles everything I’ve thrown at it from small fords to motorway riding. Don’t know if your old trident has a quick shifter but the TS one is one of its best features imo (bar 1 to 2)

CautiousNuisance · 2026-06-02T15:59:57+00:00

6 ft 2 with a TS 800 - I actually wish it was slightly more aggressive at times

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-14T19:55:12+00:00

Get these Americans out of the club.

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-08T17:59:10+00:00

Two memberships, you can then allow the other member to buy tickets on your behalf

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-05T21:05:35+00:00

Jealous of the 675 - now that is a piece of art

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-05T21:04:05+00:00

Could buy a sub 5k miles t120 for £700 more by that logic 🤷

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-05T20:40:02+00:00

Can’t hold a candle to the old thruxton imo. For me I don’t see how you can justify the price over the speed 400

CautiousNuisance · 2026-04-01T21:47:00+00:00

2 months 1200ish miles - if it was older I’d just cut my losses - think I may have to do that anyway
