Understandably a difficult and emotional decision Katy but it was time to close this chapter, and start writing the next one! Your videos and travel vlog have both helped and inspired me and I look forward to more in the future. Maybe check out the Yamaha T7, that's where I'm heading. All the best ❤
Thanks so much Marc. I feel good about letting Monster go, definitely time to write the next chapter. I enjoy keeping the CZcams channel going so hopefully I’ll be able to find some time amongst juggling babies to add the occasional video. It’s lovely to hear you’ve been inspired. Good luck with the T7 search.
Very sad to see Monster go. But the time was right. She has been amazing, she took you round the world and looked after you in so many different situations and conditions. Well done Monster. Onwards and upwards, darling. Here’s to many more adventures 🏍️ I love you ❤️
Great you got it sold! I don't know how it couldn't be interesting regardless of what you get. I really dig the new F900GS but don't have £12000 spare. Anyway, I look forward to see what you decided on and a bike's a bike so all good. FYI, I traded my F650 ST just couldn't get it to run my way, it probably was running as it should be but was never happy, maybe a little underpowered for a 120 kilo 18 and half stone bloke.
Thank you. I’ve been looking at the 700GS a bit lately but I’m wondering whether to try something a bit different. It can be quite shocking looking at the price tag of some bikes can’t it. What did you get in the end? Or are you saving for the F900?
@@HaynesGarage I didn't want anything too big and heavy so thought about middleweights but still ADV, like transalps, tigers, africa twins or Tenere's. Ended up trading for a 700 Transalp, which came to me very unloved, from a trader, he's ignoring me so am taking him to court for the repairs but don't want to dwell on negative things or subject you to them, who needs that. I'll try my best to get my money back, if not it'll be a nice bike when it's done regardless. I'm enjoying it but has a broken rear wheel and under strict instructions from the engineer that did a temp repair, to only use it for work and back so not even had any jaunts yet. Thoughts have crossed my mind, because I don't like interest, I know sometimes it's unavoidable, I may try to trade up. A base model is £12000, which is not really that far out of reach, I have 0% credit cards if need be. I'll see. Just wanted something modern and sorted and I really like the look of these bikes, nothing odd from BMW for a change, just a motorbike with all the stuff in the right places, chain on the left of the bike, nice silencer, high level, nothing odd, no odd suspension set up. Totally floats my boat. I know nothing about the 700GS and yes I agree with the prices, especially Triumphs, they really hold their prices. A guy at work bought a 1200 explorer or similar, beautiful big dude, too big for me but the little sis, the 800 would be fine for me. Not sure yet. Just looking forward to my new wheel rim and spokes arriving so I can get the rear wheel relaced and new tyres so I'll be safe to go rip it up somewhere, going stir crazy. All about the pennies, anyway I look forward to seeing your new hoss in the stable.
Thanks and best regards from Austria Walter!!👌👍👍👍

Sadly an end of an era but the start of a new one,
Good luck in all you do Katy.
Thank you Barry :)
