| Sparkin, i know mate and i know how lucky i am. I dont earn vast sums of money, but i save and spend as much as poss on what gives me the most pleasure. I have wanted one for years and after all the NC30's it was the icing on the cake, i had the chance of one and took it. It put me 7k in the red, and still am 2.5k 12 months on but you only live once and it would probably be the only chance in my life to get one and i dont regret it for an instant. I feel quilty rabbiting on about them, but everyone who rides one / mine goes the same way. Its just one of those bikes that on paper is not exactly great, but in reality its superb. more than the sum of its parts, it just seems to work so well. I guess thats why they are so sought after even today.
I am a lucky git to have one, but i am paying the price though. 99% of people just couldnt commit to owing one, each to our own i guess |
