Continental GT 750

Damn !! Another sales flop
The verdict is out until uncle Stu has had a ride; or yourself for that matter; the frame does look beefier than the 650s; and the finish looks good; but i would say it's yet another Sunday mince around machine to go wih all the others; the best i can say is; it will sell because the market for this sort of thing is huge. I much prefer the little Morini.
But half the price and twice as reliable
Please no …… Ehhhhh ooop
Bit harsh, think my Paul Smart was *£9500 new. Only broke down twice in 20 years.
*only motorcycle I have owned that went up in value and quite significantly. to think i nearly sold it to Reggie353 for £7k at one point!
The riding position was the worst of any bike albeit compared to the R9T Racer which was ridiculously uncomfortable. Just to make sure I owned one of each!

Both lovely .
Nearly bought a Racer until I rode it .
Possibly the most extreme riding position of any bike I’ve ridden . You must have arms like a gorilla !
I should have known about the Racer as I bought it with 100 miles on it as the gent before couldn’t get on with it, and the other one they sold here is in someone I knows trendy bar and has never been ridden!
Head like a gorilla btw!!

Not sure it was a success the first time around. They have added USD forks to the Himi 450 & 750, and some of the 650s, so they are in their parts bin.
I’m a believer - have a Himi 450 and had an Interceptor. But the GT is supposed to be their ‘sports’ bike.
Not a bad looking bike, have the specs been released?
