Three months on from my crash at Manfeild. The summer is fading and the shed has a space where my motorbike should stand. Time to meet my next bike.
Whats it to be? Replace my darling baby blade with another (can there be another so sweet to ride?) or go for the same motor in another guise - a naked bike? - a Hornet?
So, if God looked down and said "Audrey, you can only ever ride in one place forever", I'd choose the track and my CBR600RR. If I want to get out and have fun with hubby, who likes the open road, wind in his face and a bed of grass (well, tent nylon) at the end of the day then maybe a Hornet will do both the open road and the track. If anyone has the direct comparison and has ridden both I'd be keen to hear what you think?
Ok, Ive been waiting to build up the cash reserves too. Crashing on the track means a hefty excess of $2,500 along with new helmet. Oldest son sold me his 250cc Honda before going abroad and doting mother that I am, I bought a lemon. I nearly turned it into marmelade in a ride over the Tuka's but with a few parts and the loving care of the wizards at Motomart it will soon be a gem , hopefully sold and a gem in someone elses crown. Then, with a pocket full of cash (only a small pocket) I will be looking for a great deal and a sweet bike.
