Advice on 748s - should I buy one?
Hi all,
I am after a bit of advice. I currently have a M600 and have decided to sell her for another Duke. I envisage a bit of commuting, mostly cross country and a bit of mway.
I have been considering a post 98 900ss or a 748s I have seen advertised (both are similar money). I have ridden a 916 Foggy Rep before so am a little bit familiar with what to expect.
Really I just want peoples opinion on what would be a better bike. I say commuting but I would only envisage 10% of my work journeys ever being on the bike so if a 748 is not such a good commuter, I am not overly bothered. I am 6ft1 and about 15 stone. Anyone on here of similar build? How comfortable is the bike on a day to day basis?
The 748s in question has done 14k miles with the 12k mile service carried out. Anything particular to look out for?
Thanks in advance everyone. Experience shows that owners club members are ALWAYS the best people to ask (very much a better bet than any dealer!).
Best regards
