As part of my ongoing search for what I want as a new bike - I found this video I had done on the Desert X and never published
So have tickled it up a bit

Desert X
- Thread starter EKIMYRF
- Start date
As you say 'Balanced'......I wouldn't want to get off it either.
I can't keep up with new bike prices, I guess £14K is/was probably about right - but it's a shed load of money.....God knows where they get a grand for a set of panniers? Lovely bike though particularly on those amazing roads.
I'm looking forward to the 125cc shoot out - hope that there are some two strokes in there. Reminds me of the 'Shoot out' tests that Bike magazine used to do 50 years ago.
Enjoyed the video. I have a sneaky suspicion that you're going to regret selling your Multi'......

Re the 125cc 'Shoot Out'
Might I suggest you beg, borrow or steal a 125cc Cagiva Mito - in red of course.
STILL the coolest 125cc ever and it will take you back to your 350LC days.......
It would put the fear of God into every bike in the list above......
