Some years ago, I'd dream of having a CB1100, an Urban GS, a Thruxton RS... Now, as years go by, I want them less and less. I'm rather happy with my Interceptor 650. I have had the opportunity to upgrade, but I seem to always go back to it. I tested a Ducati Scrambler, an Urban GS and also a V7. ALl fantastic bikes and I have nothing against them, but where I live, those bikes cost at least twice as much as the Interceptor, but definitely don't feel like they are twice the bike. Well, that's good news for my wallet then!

Air cooled ( nice and simple ) and shaft drive ( zero chain maintenance ) But still I can't decide. Need to do a test ride, or two.

Money no object, I think it’s got to be either the Speed Twin or the goldline T120. But for my actual hard earned cash, it’s the Kawasaki Z650RS, I ordered one as soon as they were announced! Ordered on the looks! I was already considering a Z650 or Ninja 650, so the RS was an obvious choice, I had been eyeing up an XSR700 as a happy Yamaha owner, but the looks just don’t do it for me, the new XSR900 looks even worse in my opinion, I appreciate they are going for something in their looks, but with the sharpest Japanese sports bikes, their modern retro and naked range just don’t look as good. I would really love that BSA, but I doubt it will ever be imported to Hong Kong, we don’t even have Royal Enfield here now. Have you heard of the Brixton 1200? A bit of a T120 competitor on a budget that was also announced for next year.

For me if I’m going to go “retro” it’d be something that’s actually still pretty old (read: simple) and inexpensive (like a used Yamaha SR400, for example). Easy to work on yourself, don’t feel bad taking an angle grinder and a welder to it, and even after heavy modification you could have two for the price of one. My current bike is 1900cc and for the same price I could have three used retros and cash for modification… makes me often wonder if a 250, a 400, and a 650-1300 ish used retro would be cooler to have than one new modern bike with a GPS and a bunch of features I can’t fix tweak or work on in any way whatsoever.

The Gold Star is beautiful!! When I was in high school I had the scrambler version, the Victor 441! I remember watching road racing, and the Star in full RR form. Nothing else sounded like it with that huge piston and megaphone exhaust! I still have marks on my leg from 'starting' the 441! No electric start there! Bring the engine up on power stroke then kick while pulling the compression release!! LOL If you missed it, and it back fired, it would take a divot out of your leg with the kick lever!! I'd have to buy one for the memories!! 8) --gary

Z900 rs se or xsr900 for sure. I might pick the Yamaha only because I already have an inline 4 and want something sounds different

Have just purchased a SWM 440 Gran Milano and love it. So would love the new BSA similarly
