After getting knocked off my last XJ6 and the bike getting wrote-off, i didnt imagine i'd get a new one for the same price as the first (£4100). However today put a deposit down on a XJ6S from George White for £3999 on 0%.

Chuffed to bits...only downer was dropping the TDM coming out of work....oh well you win some you lose some.

Will be glad to be an XJ6 owner again, they are so underrated it is unbelievable.

  • 2 weeks later...

Picked up the new XJ6 yesterday :thumb: , was a mad day..my mate was picking up a new Hayabuse [jammy beggar] from the same dealer and chopping in 2 bikes. So i rode his FZ6 up and brought my XJ6 back. Was all a bit worrying as he had out-of-date paperwork and it was all a bit touch and go for him :eusa_eh:

So glad to be back on an XJ6, like an old friend. It handles quite a lot better than the first one i had. Not too sure why, possibly that the fairing is just preloading the front suspension a bit more and making the rake steeper. :icon_cool:

We did a few miles as mine needed running in (Running in a hayabusa = supercar performance anyway so no biggy for him), but it seemed like every other vehicle we encountered wanted to take one of us out. I nearly got pinched up between a bus-stop and a silly bitch in the wrong lane, he nearly got taken out by an old-fart in a volvo. We both nearly got ran down by a chav doing a ridiculous overtake in a Saxo. :pissed-off:

All in all good though, forgotten how damn smooth these engines are....
