Nice used African Twin
This looks like a good buy.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324805145560
Plus the weather has turned which makes it the right time to buy a bike.
I've got very little space in the garage though. And the g/f wants to have a bicycle here. And I was going to buy a kids motorbike. I should definitely sell one of the XL200s. I should really see what job I end up doing (and when) before buying any more bikes. Other than the kids one.

Re: Nice used African Twin
My mate bought one of them new. I've not ridden it, but I did swing a leg over it. His immediate reaction was "you can just get on it without trying!" He's 5 foot 8 so has to balance on tippy toes and think about where it's stood before he gets on.
My only impression of it, having not ridden it, is that its very comfy!

I had a group of those blast past me when I was cycling out in the sticks. They were having a ball, hugely jealous.

Re: Nice used African Twin
Homda did them on great PCP deals, tiny deposit and £67 a month.
There's was quite a large balloon payment tho', so I expect loads of them get handed back at the end of three years.
Should be quite a few low miles, minters hitting the market anytime soon.

Re: Nice used African Twin
I have a feeling that's the regular version rather than the Adventure Sport. I'm not saying the Adventure Sport is better, but it's the one I fancy.

Re: Nice used African Twin
My local Honda place were doing them were doing the 2019 models when the 2020 models came out at about 3-4 grand off list price and very low finance rates. They are well finished off but didnt suit what i wanted as i preferred what i have already.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:58 pm Homda did them on great PCP deals, tiny deposit and £67 a month.

Ducati did similar with their Multis so the market gets hit with low mileage bikes that are 3 years old...... My first one was an ex PCP bike with 5K on the clock and 3 years old, The current one was also 3 years old with 4K on the clock. I bought both on PCP and paid them off before the term ended, first one with the insurance after it was written off and the second one a few months after buying it when i retired so didnt pay the large payment at the end or lots of interest
