I was working in Barwell literally across the road so I stuck my head in the door to see what they might have on offer. Given that they are both Aprilia and Triumph dealers I figured there had to be something, as indeed there was. Couple of nice used S3's, but the sales guy then took me over to the Tuono V4 demo bike and fired it up. People, if this bike goes anything like as good as it looks & sounds, I may have to sell a kidney. I am besotted.

They also had a selection of Laverda Jotas in the workshop which they were happy to show me around. A really interesting hour in a dealership which came across as professional but approachable. Best start saving I guess

Open ended Dave. He said to give them a call when the weather picks up and take it for a spin. Rest assured I'll be doing just that.
