    Well following my disaster last year, ive been eyeing up new bikes and no matter what i do, i still come back to Deauvilles!

    I have my eye on a mint 03 Deauville at the mo, low mileage. Unless i see a similar priced valid alternative, its mine!!!

    Any suggestions??? The first one to say BMW gets a slap! :p

    Or a diesel Mondeo... Anything but a Dopeville - I'd rather be dragged behind a Harley than drive one of those yawn-mobiles.

    I don't own one and am not considering buying one, but can't figure out the hostility people have towards Deauvilles.

    I think it's the practicality they hate, as if riding something with no luggage space or terrible reliability or a wrist-torturing riding position makes their willy bigger, or something.

    :rolleyes:

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.

    I agree,I had other bikes for years but would never change from a Deauville,they are grat bikes very reliable and it saves me running two cars.

    That's a sweet looking Deauville alright, she's a minter.
    Can't go wrong with it, especially as you know what they are like, having had one before...
