New Second Bike

10,500 $ or euros? It's safe to say it isn't a 750 America so it must be a brutale. That's a damn good price for a unique and absolutely crazed bike. I'd be thinking pretty hard on that deal! Don't think it will depreciate much more than that.
 
Hey guys, haven't been on in a while. Been traveling for work. I ended up going Triumph Speed Triple 1050. It's black, has an eliminator kit, belly pan, and smoked LED turn signals.. looks awesome next to the 848 in the garage.
 
I know that I'm gonna hear laughter but my 2nd bike is gonna be either a GS or a Multi 1200 (most almost definitely the new multi if it's not as ugly as the spy shots).
 
You ever done any real distance on one?

I did a 1,700 mile road trip on the 848 this summer, had a blast but there were days...

most I did in one day was 340 miles, pretty tired at the end of it. Just love touring as well, so hence the choices.
 
No I have not, you win. But yeah.. It's a real upright bike so it can't be that bad. I have done long distance on my Speed Triple, I do 60miles/day on it. It's great fun.
 
Hey, don't get me wrong, I LOVE the motard for the city and short hops. You get off that thing and you have the stupidest grin on your face but on the highway doing anything over 70mph, it gets tiring a lot faster than the 848.

Weird sounding I know but at that speed the wind resistance acts like kinda a counterbalance on the 848.

Anyhoo, just having the dilemma of even being able to consider a 2nd bike is just a flat out luxury.
