| The 851 captured my imagination years ago - a true race bike for the road, tremendous looks and sound. Ah!
Bought a 750ie Sport a few years ago, it was all I could afford and it seemed a good machine to try after a few years lay-off from bikes. It was, and is, a grin-inducing little beastie that gives me much pleasure.
Then ... the 999 appeared. The looks of it entranced me, I had to have one! The opportunity presented itself and I grabbed it. The sheer beauty of it, the engine, the handling ... I've yet to see another bike I'd consider trading it in for.
That's it for me. |
