Re: Which Street Tripple?

The new 765 will cost me about 2k more but that will still be on the bike value in 5 yrs time surely. Am I right?

Re: Which Street Tripple?

Surely the new 765 gotta be worth more than a 2 yr old 675 in 5 yrs time.

Re: Which Street Tripple?

I don’t think you’ll go far wrong with either. Personally I’d go for the bling, but I’m tight and like bling! Especially bling that someone else has paid for I,m not really a bling enthusiast Monty but I,m more of a futuristic proff who thinks about long term gains and value adding ideas. 8) I,d pa...

Re: Which Street Tripple?

Kwacky I,ve decided to go for the new one out of the two cos its brand new on an 18 plate a more modern bike, more powerful with 2 full years of warranty. Its worth paying a little bit more for and after 5 years will that much be wortth more than the 675 model. I,ll worry about adding race can etc. ...

My only thinking guiding me towards the 675 is that not only I save £36 a month and I would also save a £1000 on buying a race can and some other useful bling that the 675 has.

Both bikes are pretty much spot on for road riding and occasional track use. The 765 has electronic rider aids which the 675 doesn't.

You'll have fun on either.
Its an R model they both are.

Re: Which Street Tripple?

Also Kwacky... What are the Triumphs like for reliability?
I really like one of these bikes though b,cos first of all they,re British and secondly they have a certain style that the Japanese bikes don,t.

There was also a 675 on 66 plate 7000 pounds with at least £1000 worth of useful bling on it, like race can a...

Re: Just one bike

I dont get it. You have 2 bikes and want to get rid of one of them only to buy another one? Whats wrong with the street tripple you have? Why not keep that and sell your other bike? It sounds like your requirements perfectly fit the street tripple you already have. Kwacky.... am I missing something ...

Re: Buying a new bike soon.

PCP is another option if you're looking for low monthly payments Kwazaki are doing a 0% deal on Z900 but it works out too expensive and I dont rally want to spend that much on a bike any more and thats why I liked the pcp option on the honda cos it only works out about £80 a month. (beer) I,m not w...

Re: Buying a new bike soon.

Kwacky thats great but I need to buy a new bike to take advantage of their monthly paying schemes. I dont want to pay cash hence looking for a good deal on zero interest finance deal etc.
