With the 0% deals on 999 and 999s do I swop my 05 749s?
What are if any the real world benefits and will my new Termi's fit the 999.
What do you think?

If you are upgrading to a 999,go for the 'S'.The engine is mega,Ohlins all round,radial stoppers and a Termi system thrown in.Awesome bike.

I sell these things for a living so maybe a biased view..

To decide if you want one...

If you want more mid range, grunt and a lazier ride, go for a 999.

If you love the way you can rev the 749S and still keep up with the big bikes - as i do - then keep your 749

The money...

What some customers have found.. With the 0% deal and DUK paying £500 towards the deposit, you'll get a mega deal on a new 999, and if your 749 is on a finance package you may find that you can swap it in and pay the same each month for a new 999 or 999S as you have no interest charges. Have a look at the numbers.

Your Termi wont fit. (i'm guessing its an asymetric system) but all you need is a link pipe that is for the deep sump motor. about £150, get the dealer to throw one in !!!!

If you have a full system, then have a deal with the dealer for a system on your new bike and leave the one on your 749.

Good luck.
