A change is ...

… I said that in June 2012, and in November that year swapped the Suzuki GS500F for a Honda FJS600. Well, in typical 'man' fashion, I'm at it again. I've just signed up for a Honda NC750X.

Why? A couple of reasons: the FJS600 already has nearly 10,000 miles on the clock, and is still good for a trade-in, the NC750X is extremely economical at around 80 mpg (imperial), the dealer made me an offer I couldn't (well, could, but didn't want to) refuse, and it will still suit my commuting purposes, and it is fun to ride.

To be honest the FJS600 is a good bike (OK, scooter) and I would have been happy to keep her if the part-ex offer had not been so good, but as I was about to say, a change is as good as a rest.

Just got to wait, now.
