Do it!

You know the bike already, if you do then feel the need for the extra bragging rights of the 1290, thats when you can sell your current toys

Just bid on the 1290 on ebay!

But if too dear then yes, get the battle bike. I had an LC4 before the SD and I know the feeling of those vibes at anything over 70!! Supermotos are solo much fun but not on an open roads. I was always trying to get across country on roads smaller than B roads. It was mad and fun but took forever.

Ok a quick update the new 1290 as now been sold so ive been to see my old sd what can i say i bought it in may 2009 and sold it my mate in 2002 with 1300 miles on the clock since then its done just over 1000 miles and been stood 3 years its Pat Mcdoogle old spare battle bike no 32 if i remember correctly the one he got the lap record for Donnington 2008 tuned by Bob Farnham with just over 2300 miles on the clock now or maybe less till i get chance to put a battery on i won't no so the big question now is what's it worth as it is now
