Does that seem expensive to you too Kwacky? I have over 9 yrs of ncd too on both. £350 for my bike and £600 for my car fully comp including breakdown cover is excellent I think.

Expensive? My car is a 2 ltr 4 wd. This is the best quote I,ve ever had to insure it around £600. Bike is a 948 cc, I,ve never paid that low for a bike insurance either fully comp about £350.

Carol Nash offered me a great deal yesterday. My car insurance is due soon too and I,d been offered £720 from my existing insurer. Carol Nash offered me £960 on their 6 wheel insurance system which on top of legal cover, personal injury cover it also includes breakdown cover on both my car and bike....

That,s why I don,t just go any where to ride. I ride on a couple of roads near home and the 483 in Wales and Oulton Park. To me road riding is almost like a track riding. I get to know the road and all its character and issues and then stick to it and when I can go riding it until the cows go home. ...

You switched sides D6 :? I reckon he's more worried about brand image ;) Kwacky I had the same issue when I was changing my car 3 years ago. I fancied a freelander but it was far more expensive than a Kia Sportage and when I tested the kia I fell in love with it and it was loads cheaper than freela...

Great choice. Happy New bike day have fun with it Could you do me a favour please. I arranged a test ride on one a few months back and the Speedo was stuck in KPH but none of us knee how to change it back. I would seriously recommend finding out how to do that before picking it up as not one person...

yeh Monty, wont be long now. Another few weeks and we,ll be out on twisties.

Good choice of bike. To be honest there's too much choice now. Happy new bike day. Cheers kwacky, I was plesently surprised today with the power and the beautiful handling of this middle weight and middle ground bike. Absolutely gorgeous. They make these street bikes now just like the superbikes. 8)

I did test a 765 too but in the end I decided that for me there wasnt enough in it to warrant a 2k difference in cost so in then the kwacker Z900 won. ;-)

Cheers guys, gotta wait for dry weather to really test this bike on the twisty roads of Derbyshire. ;-)

HAPPY NEW BIKE DAY

Cheers Monty, I,m so excited.

Hey guys I tested a Z900 today and loved it to bits. With a price tag of £8599 paying over 4 yrs at 0% finance deal works out a good 2 grand cheaper than the triumph 765 which isn,t 2 grand better in my opinion. The Z900 is quck, sporty, agile, s.ooth, brilliant on corners. Beautiful and powerful en...

Duke and I will he heading over to France again this summer. Cookie will be joining us for a couple of days. It's the usual format - nothing is set in stone, relaxed pace, stop off at places we like the look off and find somewhere in the evening that sells food and booze. At the moment the rough pl...

Its a beautiful bike though don,t you think?
