Thought so. A mate demo'd it a while back and brought it round to me to see if I'd get it back to shiney if he bought it. Like me, he loved riding it but then went and bought another Fireblade.
Is there any reason I shouldn't get a 990 smt?

Good enough bike and not much dearer than a 2009 model in McCallens and a better colour to boot. I know what I'd do and dealing with Belfast Honda has always been a pleasure for me.
What price are they asking Neil?
There's some good ones over on the mainland. Fowlers
of Bristol have this for example:

There's little choice over here, Clive. That's why I've bought 6 bikes over the water over the past several years, but some folk don't like the uncertainty of doing a distance deal.
I could always start up a bike resurrection service now I'm heading into retirement. I think I could be quite good at it.

I think you'd be bloody brilliant at it!
Now you've got me thinking.........
I'll be picking her up on Saturday Neil.
Train up to Liverpool, then I've plotted myself a nice 250 mile route down through Wales via Snowdonia and Brecon national parks to home. Only 70 miles longer than the M6/M5 and heaps more fun.
Very very excited now
Hope you get yours soon

Taking me camera, will stop for pics on the way.
Nice one Dazzle, hope it's a good dry day, where you getting it from?
P&h. In Crawley, only 15 miles and not quite as spectacular ride home as snowdonia
You could go home via Eastbourne/Beachy Head/Seven Sisters, that would be interesting!
Had mum and dad coming round for a BBQ this afternoon but didn't go straight home.
Took a test ride about a year ago thought these were the best bike I had ever ridden small, compact, quick steering awesome brakes and engine, suited me down to the ground.
Still is
No reason at all not to get one

HTR, Clive. It's just your type of bike to a tee.
You're right there Davy, it's like a slimmed down faster version of my Ulysses, really made up with it. It's basically like a brand new bike, only had 1380 miles on the clock, it'll be two years old in November, I got a cracking deal from Sye, happy as a pig in shit.
Do you know what spoiler that is ???
I'm thinking spoiler on standard screen might work well
MRA Vario I think, but stand to be corrected.
