The same but different

Post by Kwacky »

Went to see my mate at Sutton Honda.

They've got a 2019 adventure sport in. It's the updated model to mine

I've been offered my bike and £3,200 which isn't a bad deal.

I'm just wondering if the extra cc and tech is worth the money.

£3200 is a lot of money for essentially the same bike.

£3200 is more than I paid for the ST, unless it's a good upgrade then you could buy another fun but older bike with that cash.

Give it a test ride if you're really tempted.

I had forgotten that you rode one a year ago (blush)

Might still be worth a back-to-back refresher ride :D

Seems like a lot of money for very little in gain.

Having done a big ride on it this evening I tend to agree

If the question is what more would I have got from a newer version of my bike then the answer certainly isn't £3k more
