Well I wanted to rent a Buell which is slighly more relaxed but around here I can't find any offered and after my dad testdrove one last weekend, I kinda feel the Buell is not worth the money
I wouldn't mind something less "racy" like an Hornet, Monster or whatever, with smaller engines, why not, but this new rental company just opened and they are offering quite huge discounts this month.. the list of available bikes is pretty short
- Harley Davidson Fat Boy :arrow: already had a Dyna Glide for a while.. the Fat Boy is "fatter" but similar and when you rent it is nice to rent something "different"
- Triumph Rocket III, the 2'300 cc whale.. of course the declared 0-100 km/h time of 2.9 seconds is happealing and it would be nice to play the fool at the stop lights, but well, I also can already picture me smashed into the first house outside the first coner
- RSVR
- CBR
that's it, so the choice is limited.. gran tourer or sporty ones.
I know what you think.. the Aprilia or Honda are meant for skilled riders with years of experience and I don't hide the fact I don't ride a bike on a regular basis.
But I also think I grew wise enough not to do anything stupid even with a powerfull bike.
I don't plan to gun it down country roads at 200 mph, don't worry.
Of course that said, a more relaxed bike would make for some more relaxed cruising, especially if Aleks comes along.. but the Triumph or Harley are too relaxed I guess :roll:
I just want to have something different to take me around for a couple of days and I have to jump on this discounted occasion
The reviews I read about the 929 are saying it is kinda forgiving, and "easy" even for the not-hardcore fanatics.
no I won't take it to the ring
