Aye, the black one. Tidy, and sitting a 700 quid.

Oddly the Nordie is one of the few bikes I think doesn't look as good in black. Well, shiny gloss black anyway.

Gutted, that's what I paid for mine and it was rough. Never mind, I got to choose exactly what i did with mine. The down side was it cost a fortune that I'll never get back. I did consider black or gun metal grey but went with Subaru world rally blue.

Nice choice. My first one had a pearl white with electric blue tiger stripes paint job. The lacquer had a tint in it so depending which way the light caught it there was a blue of pink highlight. It sounds hellish but looked a lot better than the description. Horribly eighties though.

Gunmetal or graphite grey always looks better than gloss black I think.

It went this morning for £870

There is a Dakota 350 on e-bay now, looks in good condition from the photos and has only 9000kms on the clock! Looks a nice bike, shame it's not a 500.

Looks sweet. Don't see many of them popping up.

No doubt someone somewhere has tried to fit a Nordie motor in one at some point. I wonder if the 350 and the 500 share the same rolling bits? Better looking than the XRT.
