So I have started to take the Dream apart for a full on restoration. I have my Vstrom and a scooter, but sold my GSX-R750 a while back. I like to have more than one bike (no reason - I just do), so I have just bought a 2019 Panigale V4 (collect at the weekend). I rode one and it was mind blowing, but am I too old at 60 to be taking on a 200+ bhp bike - I guess we will see!

Enjoy it, in my opinion you are to old when you cant manage to strap your Zimmer frame to the carrier by yourself

So - I have enjoyed my time with the V4, but it really is too much, the power is immense and at normal road speeds it is not even close to being used. So I am going to sell it. To replace it I am currently thinking:
Aprilia 660 Tuono Triumph Street Triple 765RS Multistrada V2 Suzuki GSX-S1000 GT
Anyone had any experience of these?
I am of course keeping the Dream (and my Vstrom 650XT)
