Sad days are here :cry:

The K16 has gone, one week ago today it was sold and so I am currently without two wheels. On the plus side PRD is going to be struggling long term now to continue his jibes towards me :clap:

So no more Wolf tours for a while.

PRD

This is very sad news. I hope you got good price for it. Any ideas on next bike. Some say the GTR
Is good!personally I think R1200rt would suit you.

So there was nothing lined up when you sold it ?. :no:
Pross

O.C.

Well it was an experience Steve, or some say an itch that you had to scratch, and it provided you with lots of fun and enjoyment, and some of us with ammunition to make some fun (all in the best possible taste I might add)   :smiley: 

So time to get another steed ...maybe a visit to Autorama where you will find a stunning 2016 Black GTR GT .....just like the one owned by a certain PRD  :clap: :yes: :mfr_lol: 

Whatever you do....keep us posted 
BE KIND...

Wether it's said in jest or not, has to be tried! All that capacity............and torque!  :wink:
Need to try one myself but the "change" temptation will always be there!
Must try the new Bonnie also, getting really good write ups now it's grown a bit.....size and capacity!
Oh..... and the re-worked Tiger 1050, my fave bike before the GTR, new one's s'posed to good!
and......and......and....... :whistling: 
Good hunting Sir! :yes:
Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

Lonewolf

Viper if you fancy one of those cruise ships, go for it. I have to admit it was a bike I always dreamed of owning until I got the K16.....that was big enough!!

PRD

Rocket 111 now there's a thought! Did you not have one before?

Well mr wolf , I owned 3 1800 in a row the last one I sold out of pure greed as the dealer offered me £3000 less than i paid for it not a bad deal for 25,000 mls but always in the back of my mind that I should of kept it , I also had an early rocket big engine but would be eaten alive by a gtr 1400 or k1600 in the real world and the drive train can be a weak point . Just my 10 penith worth but most of all enjoy whatever you choose.

SofaWing 1800s are a hoot,.... for a H*nda.
They handle way better than they should and have adequate power.
Only problem is that the panniers are permanent so they are a PITA to filter on.
All I want for now is a more comfortable riding position on the 1400.
I have a feeling Mr Russell may be getting some more of my money this winter.
My commiserations Steve on being bikeless.
Now go test ride some stuff and see what takes your fancy.  :banana: :hammer: :biker3:

I quite the look of the Indian bikes, similar to the popular Harley Davidsons in style but perhaps a bit more practical, anyone got any experience of an Indian?

PRD

Yes Mr Wolf I have plenty experience of Indian but I can't say more due to legal processes. But would advise against!
