My current bike and previous..had. great track record for low maintenance / mechanical issues./ no major weak spots costing fortunes reasonably easy to work on. the NTV offered great distance riding at a decent cost, and was fun in a slow way. but the 900 offers .."WHOOOSSH " enough to make you remember to HOLD ON TIGHTER, next time...:wideyed::eek::woot: (yep, made that mistake, along with many owners in the early days of ownership..[IMG]http://www.rfownersclub.co.uk/images/smilies/scared/eek.gif[/IMG] ) Both came at a reasonable purchase price, both offered me great service. SO Lots of OOMPH, easy to maintain, and reasonable running costs,,must be loads out there..:hilarious::hilarious::hilarious: Don't need fly by wire, or any new fangled Devices added to HELP me ride, etc... especially if it means the bikes back in the shop every month because i CAN'T fix it, cos "that is just how they make them now, Sir"..:banghead:...... ££££..:rolleyes: So my search begins next year.. though most likely look to just get another of the same make, if the prices stop rising so quickly.:***: ...only ULEZ compliant. can't say i've ever been disappointed by it or it's performance, a few little tweaks and she's way fast enough for me.. (far beyond my abilities, so she gets my full respect.....:D) [URL='https://www.motorcyclenews.com/bike-reviews/suzuki/rf900/1995/']MCN[/URL] [/QUOTE]
