Just put the deposit on a new T7

old colour scheme but will be a 22 reg - pick up friday

Im a ‘mature’ rider from the uk - won’t really be used off road just for fun really

had my license for 35 years plus anf usually had trail bikes XT, XL,KLR,KMX,TTR - got back in the saddle last year with a used G650GS 

Looking forward to Friday

Welcome, I am sure you will enjoy your T7 as much as I do.

Just had the call ( with the reg #) ready to collect friday

last new bike I bought was a 600 naked bandit way back in 2003- I can’t believe that’s almost 20 years ago

Don't you wish you could keep all the bikes you have, had or will own in the future.  All you need is a building to house them and a heap of cash to afford all the museum pieces.  

That's a great bike to cruise on and feels so smooth.  I feel your loss. 😥

Beautiful.  How are you going to keep the girls from swarming the bike with such a good looking rider.  You'd better keep it moving for safety sake!  😆

Congrats!

 

Honestly - while I bought mine to take it offroad, I was so happy with how *fun* the bike is to ride on the road.  I still prefer my Tracer for long on-road trips (cruise control, wider more comfy seat, bigger gas tank, moar powah, etc, etc) but for day to day riding?  I'm always looking at the T7 first.  The added height for visibility, the incredibly nimble handling, the very tractable but fun powerband and more than enough power to have lots of fun.  

 

And lets face it.  It's a damn good looking bike.

 

Also: Red and white is best colorway!  Fight me!
