I need to see what's happening with work. I don't know how many days a week I'll be expected to go into work. If I'm commuting again I need to decide what I'm going to be using.

Things also depend on what's happening with the MV. If I'm going to have to spend money on getting a replacement tank then I may as well keep it for a while to get my money's worth. If MV swap the tank I might look to replace the bike with another sports or sports naked bike.

What ever happens, I'll be looking at a commuter/tourer and sports/naked 2 bike combo.

I do like the Guzzi in this scheme

Test rides here in Aussie (well Sydney at least) are extremely hard to get. I couldn’t even get a test ride on the Thruxton without putting down a deposit. Also where the bike shops are it’s only city streets and motorway. And you are escorted by a staff member on another bike. He was going to slow and I knew the area as it was near my old refinery so I left him and turned up at the shop 5 minutes before him (20min test ride) and he got grumpy at me.
