Subject: (XRV) Need info before buying another one
Hi all,
I bought an @ last november, and was happy with it. Last week however, a
strong effort on my breaks on a wet spot on the highway sent me to the
hospital and my @ to the garage. Having discussed with the repairmen, the
price to repair it might be around the price of a new Transalp. Taking into
account that all my equipment (helmet, boots, jacquet, pants) did their
protective role but are totally worn out, that's also some money.
I know that question has been asked here before, but I would like (maybe in
bilateral e-mail to avoid bothering others) the advice of someone(s) that
can really compare the @ and the Transalp (acceleratiom, handling, ease of
manipulation, etc.).
Keep on riding while you can. I should be back on wheel within 4 weeks (the
doctors said).
By the way, the breaks of the @ ARE very strong !
