I stopped riding for almost 20 years for personal reasons. At age 48 I decided it was time to ride again. I considered either a new MV Agusta or an NSR 250 MC28. I opted for the lightweight NSR and have not regretted the decision.
My issue now is.....i find myself wanting both, but the wife said, why don't you play with this toy for a while before buying another. I tend to agree with her cause i need a new car soon too. I also have the BMW, but that's more for show due to its lineage.
