Re: Bike Theft

Re: Front end knock

If it were my money it would be 2015 1199R, then a 2015 1299S and lastly the 1199R 2012-14. The 1299S has a lot of the equipment that the £50k Superleggera ...

Made me a bit sad to see the parents and looking unkempt and scruffy yet they were all stood around with iPhone 6's and new samsung phones. Does that make me sound snobby? because I'm really not.
