Hairy Posted October 16, 2018 Share I still like the idea of a cruiser ... may just take a walk down to the HD dealership again and kick some tyres. Last time I was there the sales guy was so pushy that I did not get a chance to just look around. Personally, I don't mind the sportster range, especially when a little blacked out with minimal, if any chrome ..... and if I bought one and they offered me a HD jacket with it for free I would have to politely decline the gracious offer, not into "branding" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymann Posted October 16, 2018 Share Don't forget about this (the Yamaha still runs deep in this one!) - was especially built to take on the 883 Sportster. You won't have the Harley image, but its still a bloody nice bike. http://www.billysbikes.co.za/tests/383-nut-or-bolt.html https://www.wheels24.co.za/News/We-ride-Yamaha-XVS950-Bolt-20140526 Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andymann Posted October 16, 2018 Share They only came in for a year or two in limited numbers. There are a few secondhand ones around - I can ask a few questions if you want - but probably around R85k used now Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted October 16, 2018 Share If money were not an issue I would really enjoy the BMW RnineT ... just because it looks lekker and I really like the sound of a boxer engine barrykm and sawystertrance 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawystertrance Posted October 16, 2018 Share That's the one I would have recommended. Not sure if I would ride it even middle-distance rides though. Even CT to Franschoek may be a push imo. Edit: Hairy, are you clear on what kind of riding you want to do? Edited October 16, 2018 by sawystertrance Grebel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
