The ever changing 850T/V11
« on: May 16, 2015, 06:04:37 PM »
Since I decided to scrap out the Breva 750, I wanted the 850T to do road duty.

Part old, part new.  ;-T  Longer gas range than the 750 Breva and more power when you need it.  Is that seat custom made for you?   Looks nice.

That is a really beautiful 850T.  The drum models seem rarer every year.  Is that grey a stock color, looks great/mean

It desperately needs that - oh, and some expanded metal... somewhere. :BEER:

One thing though, a fella's not gonna skip steps in a tire change with those purty side bags like you have in the past.
