| You live in Twickenham and work where, in the city? Why not buy a Japanese middleweight for a grand and use that for the half hour commute. No worries about paint falling off, getting it nicked, letting it sit outside in the rain corroding away, dropping it 'cos some myopic retard has decided he'll go in the opposite direction and didn't check what was coming.
Much as I love my Ducati I know it's not the most practical or reliable machine in the world. I don't commute into town anymore but when I did my 400 Honda was infinitely better than any Ducati for weaving my way through the traffic. And being a Honda I also knew that it'd carry on doing it with the worst treatment I or London could throw at it.
