The time has come.
My youngest (13) is interested in doing some weekends away on the bike so I need a bike that will be suitable for taking him on the back, and which will cope with the necessary luggage etc. He's just 13 but like all 13 year olds nowadays, about 5'9".
It seems to me that the Sport and the Breva are actually quite similar.
My heart says definitely the Sport - for ages I have thought them to be stunning looking bikes and I'd very much like to own one. (2 valve, I know about the 4v issues).
My head says the Breva because for taking said son and luggage, plus my 200 mile trips to Yorkshire, it could be the more practical bike.
Ideally I'd like someone to tell me that the Sport is just as capable of carrying luggage and comfortable enough for a pillion, and that'll be my perfect solution. But I don't want to go looking for a Sport, only to find that it's not really up to the job and regret not going for the Breva.
Ladies and gentlemen, your opinions please!
