No, I missed it. Was it any good or did they just say it's out dated, over weight and can't compete with the modern sports bikes?

It was fairly glowing:.... "Focused, beautiful, functional expensive.....Its manners, characteristics and components feel bang up to date " .....more...... "for me this effortless style, definition of purpose and exclusive feel are what mark the SP2 out as the pick of our used bike trio [Aprilia RSV-R, Duc 749] ....There's something you can't quite put your finger on. And although its two years older than the the others, the fact it has depreciated less and its absence from dealer floors indicate it'll hold onto its value"

All of which squares with my view that the SP will become a classic, which is why I won't sell my SP-1

That was all about the SP2 though.

Look what was said of the SP1
"It's out dated, over weight and can't compete with the modern sports bikes"
Or is that just Pete.L's opinion

I think that descption more accurately fits me!

In 20 years time I don't think there will be much differencein "desireability". In fact I'd say there isn't much difference now.

Not that Ill be riding in 20 years

In any case anything over 25cc will probably be banned by then.
