    I'm considering getting back on a bike - after a "few" years off - been
    looking at the ad's for the Kwak GTR1400,
    Anyone got any thoughts or experiences (good or bad ) with this machine ?

    SD said in the Merci M TOG thread:

    "Thanks also to WUNcle for a go on the GTR14. As I said at the time, I
    couldn't find anything about that I didn't like, but it did nothing
    that made me go "I want one"

    It's a bit lardy.

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Tim
    And not really a good choice for someone who's been off for a "few"
    years, IMHO.

    Heavy (with a lot of the weight up high) and *fucking* quick in a
    straight line. Handling's pretty good and the brakes are brilliant.

    OP: the decision may be made for you. See if you can get insurance on
    one.

    What were your previous bikes?

    Define "few"?

    This could well be your last bike...
