The most important question?

With much appreciation I edge closer to an XSR....


I am mulling between a restricted, but brand new one on pcp for £50/month.


Or getting a loan and "owning" for not an awful lot more/month an unrestricted 1 owner 2016 model.


The question is...what colour!?


Who knew it would be so difficult to choose...


Green (A2 compliant) or the used one in silver...


:confused::confused:

It's easy....unrestricted 2016 in Forest Green. Simply the best. Sorted!

Darn it ... That's what I think I think too...but it's just not a permutation I can afford!
What is mean it's...the A2 has a colour choice...the used unrestricted one is in silver only...

I could always wait I suppose.

Easy. Buy the green restricted one, and get it derestricted.

otherwise get the silver one, it's probably a cheaper option long term anyway and let's be honest, silver looks great in its own right.

To elaborate; the restrictor on the xsr700 is just a throttle cable mount that limits how far you can open the throttle. One ebay purchase and three screws later and your bike is derestricted! No futzing with ECU programming or anything like that. The stealership in switzerland (actually way more honest than the one in the US) actually gave me the derestricted mount in a little baggy! :laugh:
