benjy88 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 So, I'm just curious about opinions here, and despite obvious prejudice, I feel i'll get mixed views on this one! I'm toying with the idea of two things at the moment... I have been offered an insanely good deal on a 370z Nismo, with which would only cost me about £260.00 per month... OR I do my Bike license, and buy a Triumph Speed Triple. What would you do? Quote
GMballistic Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I'd get the 370Z Nismo imo, ...unless you're feeling particularly suicidal then get the bike. Quote
benjy88 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 I'd lend it to you for a bit if I did get one mate, don't worry. Just the usual payment though yea? Quote
mouthwash Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I'm sure I can do a discount if you're lending me the car. Quote
benjy88 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) I'd get the 370Z Nismo imo, ...unless you're feeling particularly suicidal then get the bike. Naah, I don't want to be a knee down in the corners type of biker... I've witnessed 3 Biker deaths in my life watching people do that on public roads... The temptation is the thought of a weekend riding through France n Belgium with my old man to be honest... That's mega appealing, whereas that's not quite the same with a 370z Nismo...

The problem is though it doesn't matter how safe you're riding a bike without the protection that a car affords you any minor accident can lead to life changing injuries or even death. Personally I wouldn't risk it but if it's an itch you have to scratch then maybe you just have to try it to see. Quote
Zedd Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 The problem is though it doesn't matter how safe you're riding a bike This. Its the idiots coming the otherway, the amount of people ive seen coming around a bend on the wrong side of the road was enough to stop me getting a bike. 1 Quote
benjy88 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 That being said, the Nismo is one of the brand new red ones, on a 15 plate.... Which is so utterly beautiful.... Just look at how awesome they look: 3 Quote
Randy_Baton Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) More to the point how are you getting that nismo for £260 a month and where can I apply. Edited May 9, 2015 by Randy_Baton 1 Quote
Mopedmark Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Hi, as a I've been a biker for 36 years I know th pros and cons for both, the choice is yours I'm afraid, that car is beautiful, to me a speed triple is just that but to you it's a massive thing, the bike IS More dangerous Quote
Ekona Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I wouldn't be choosing my type of fun transport based on how safe it was. 1 Quote
benjy88 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 More to the point how are you getting that nismo for £260 a month and where can I apply. I work in the trade, so it's easier for me to get deals which might otherwise seem impossible... Quote
Jetpilot Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Bike, but wouldnt go near a road on one again, track days all the way Quote
ZEUS Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I'd go for the bike, there's no better way to tour around Europe than on a bike imho. The cars very nice but you have plenty of time for that later on 1 Quote
