I'm looking at buying 2nd hand; 2004 750Ss are between 5Kand 6K - do
you think 2nd hand 750s will drop further after the new models come
out?
In any case, I'm going to be changing in July, so the knock-on effect
if there is one should have kicked in.
> Cherokee, Tiger, & now an MV. You're stalking me aren't you.
well, the Tiger will be replaced, rather than joined by whatever I buy
in July, and the Cherokee's going on eBay in a week or so.

well, this one was parked, so I didn't hear it. but having done a
quick google, the sound is frequently mentioned.
Also, and quite amazingly, for a piece of Italian exotica, they also
seemed to be rated very highly for build quality and reliability!

it's a pity Krusty's not on the French run, or you'd have been forced
to.

Utterly fantastic bikes if you like to make the engine work for its
money (i.e. not a lot of grunt, but plenty of oomph). The 910 has more
bottom end it that's a concern.
Beware residuals though - the new 989 & 1078 Brutales should be making
an appearance in the spring. Now is possibly not a good time to buy a
750 or 910 if you can wait a few months.
<thinks>
Cherokee, Tiger, & now an MV. You're stalking me aren't you.

I'd say it's fairly likely, but...

that is probably true. If you get one a little earlier (i.e. before the
1st July), there's still a space or two left on the MV tour if you're
interested.

My 955 & Cherokee will also be going this year, so I guess it's my turn
to follow you.

The former's a distinct possibility as J wants one - although it'll be
her buying it, not me.
I'm currently doing a darsy about what to replace the Jeep with.
Current possibilities are a diesel Cherokee, 2.8 SWB Pajero - or
something completely different.

Understandable. I do rock in every conceivable way[1].
