Hey folks,
After years of owning GSs, RTs, Buells, KTMs, MT01s and about everything in between my eye has been taken by a 1200 Sport V4
The 1200 Sport has that classy retro look I'm after, as well as a big v-twin and I'm keen to get thoughts on those who have owned one.
It'll be an 'every day' bike, but since I work at home that's likely a once-a-week blast and a few local trips, so it's not going to be an every-day commuter and while I'm competent when it comes to aesthetic mods and smaller jobs like wheel bearings, exhausts etc, I won't be touching the engine, so I'd need something that's not completely alien to a good mechanic and reasonably reliable.
What should I look for, look out for and be aware of?
