Certainly is, hideous

Annual leave mate, I had to get it all in before the end of the financial year. I go back to work 16th March.

I am on leave from work so got plenty of time on my hands.

Me to,

Absolutely hideous

Fair enough

Wow, you don't normally come across as that soft

Wow! not many bikes hit me with that I want one vibe straight away, but I love the idea of this thing. Love the look of it, I would have the standard clocks but apart from that exactly as the test model please. Shortarse friendly too. Only drawback for me would be the £17k ish price tag, couldn't afford that without finance and I am pathologically against that. I had an old 1993 R100R that I loved and to me this looks very much like that but better in every way.

Liquid cooled 8 valve I believe.

Not sure they prepared that well

I didn't go in yesterday, but the last time I went in their on the way home from Rugby it was sticky carpet and broken chairs type of place. Has had a reputation for being rough for years, used to be a good place for music backalong, wouldn't have a clue now.

Sounds like the story that was told to me.

Salesman Chap I was talking said that they had had 4 x 700 CF Motos back with ECU failure and they had been waiting 4 months for new ECU's which were on back order. I didn't ask any more than that so may very well not be the Bosch ones. I did like the look of a CF Moto 650 GT they had in the shown room it was 18 months old for £4600 but I just couldn't take that leap of faith at the time.

I know you are a Neevesey fanboy and I am not putting him down but the point is there are plenty of opinions out there and we are all free to listen or not and value or not the ones we choose. There are good and bad I will make my own choices. I like Nathan, I don't say he is the best but I am interested in what he has to say. If you actually listened to what Nathan had to say he was pretty hard on the CF Moto but of course it's your prerogative not to if you don't want to. I personally think you would be mad to spunk £10k on one. I remember a candid chat with a local bike sales man who would not touch a CF Moto with a barge pole, given the warranty claims his boss was dealing with. I value that opinion because he was talking about 1st hand experience. If it were my money and I wanted a mid sized ADV bike I would go Japanese made in Japan but it would be a dull world if you couldn't look at the options and opinions before making a choice. And god forbid chat about it on a bike forum.

Nathan isn’t a postman, he adopted the moniker because he rode an Aussie postie bike from Australia back to the UK. He runs Dorothy’s Speed Shop in North Devon and runs all sorts of biking events from Green Laning to tours of Europe etc. He runs a fleet of bikes of all sorts of makes. Interesting guy with no axe to grind. I don’t mind Neevesy but you can follow more than one reviewer, it’s allowed

I think it already is.

Interesting review from Nathan

That newer bridge was built in 1961 for cars. Its is butt ugly though.

Oh dear

Wasn't he one of yours anyway?
