So I got t-boned on the 919 by a little old lady in a Chrysler today -- I'm absolutely fine as it was at pretty slow speed. She did a number on my 919, though. It's out of service at the moment and I'm having insurance deal with it.

So! With that brings the potential for a write off which brings potential for another bike! :yes::yes::yes::yes:

I'd love to get some ideas from ya'll. This would be a replacement for the 919!

I think I only have three requirements:

Centre stand
Givi rack
Used, under $8000

Let's see what you guys got :sinister:

Sorry, I didn't clarify. This is the 919 that took the hit. The scooter was safe and sound in the garage because I planned on riding into the city after work tonight, to see my girlfriend.
 
First, glad you're OK!!!! Whew!

Here's my contribution!

Can you get a used Multistrada at that price point? That was the bike you said you wanted a couple months ago.

Or, it just so happens your price point puts you right in with a brand new Fz-09 (8000 is the US price, don't know what it is in loons)

Or

Don't know what the Givi option is.

This one comes with the Givi bag

Well, I have seen some great deals on low mile gen 1's lately. Both in Portland and Seattle so you wont have to go far! You have to admit the old gen 1 is still a sexy beast!
 
First off, I'm very glad you are OK and I'm sorry about the 919. OK, now for new bike talk! :Rockon:

You've never had a Gen II FZ1. I know you can get one of those for well under your price and have plenty left over for hard cases, seat, suspension, exhaust, windscreen and a few other mods. I even know a few guys that could tell you anything you need to know about it. :hook2:

You might find a used FJR in your range, but I don't think that's the type of bike you are looking for. What about a Ninja 1000? Oops, no center stand.

Maybe a Grom. No center stand, but you can just lift it... LOL :box:

I really like the FZ-09, but again no center stand. Maybe you can add one. :dontknow:
 
I vote Gen 11 FZ1 so how does this affect your ride coming up? You still doing it?...nevermind just saw your other post I was going to ride with you.
