Give me a B road, a 30 year old back and some cornering skills I’d love it, but at 64 I’ll stick with my Multi. There is room in the garage though🤣 PS. The Aprilia sounds good in the background.
I truly enjoyed your real world review. As you rightly said, all the other reviews are track focused or tech spec readings. I’m a CRF250M owner that I use for commuting and also own a 2024 Triumph Street Triple RS which is lovely for a quick ride with the lads. I would like to upgrade my CRF250M for something stronger, not that it’s really needed for city commuting. Was hoping that the Ducati single would fit the bill but it’s just too strong and the fact it doesn’t have a fuel gauge is a bummer. Maybe something like the new 400’s from Triumph would do me but they’re a bit small in size. The Duke 390 is nice but small as well. The only bike worth considering is the old DRZ400 from Suzuki. It does look a bit dated though doesn’t it?
@@stevesherlockrides I did and went to the dealership to see it in person. It just doesn’t look right. I know this might sound daft but I can never love that machine.
Dealership just advised me that they need 5 hrs to install the termi’s not cheap without buying the thing so in the uk £600 does this sound right sounds a lot to me.
You’re never too old. The riding position is quite good.
Brilliant review ❤
Thank you sir
its a comfy bike.. it has a typical euro5 lean under 5K rpm.. but it rides and tips in brilliantly.. i got one alongside my 950
Yep agree itvwas the emissions police that will have affected it. Great bike though and pleased I rode it
If you could only have one which would it be?
Tough question. I suppose the multistrada as I can do everything on it. If it's a choice between 890r and Mono it would be the mono

What was it you didn't like?
@@stevesherlockrides how it looked.
@stephenspiteri_zunkus personal choice but it rides fantastic

That does sound expensive. Is that just the labour?
@@stevesherlockrides yes just labour 5 hrs, most of the front end has to be removed apparently.
@Single698 wow that's rediculous
@@stevesherlockrides nothing i can do only ducati can do the upmap so even if i fit it myself they wont then do the upmap.
@Single698 I wonder if you would notice the remap?
