Howdy,

In abit of a dilema as in what to do, i really liked having the R6 for the last few months of summer but now i want a bike again. I did put the mg up in auto trader had a few calls but kept saying it's sold, only reason being is that the weather is to get worse so thinking it would be better to sell the car March/April time. But it's a good time to buy a bike now as there dirt cheap.

Now was speaking to a guy who i was out with last night who i use to go out riding with, and we was saying it would be ace to go abroad riding next year for a week roughly or so not sure where but like france,spain, germany kinda thing. But i can only afford either a car or bike, i do really like the mg as it's got nice power, it's convenient etc but miss the power of a bike, nipping around people easy.


Also i quite fancy the R1 but i think the insurance would probably rape me.

but they do not go round corners like an R6. Flog your Rover 25 and get an R6 and something really cheap like a diesel astra or something for shit weather.

Its plenty quick enough and insurance won't kick you in the balls.
Get one without the blue wheels though
