The bike in question is my 1980 honda benly 185T (pictured in my avatar) - don't worry, i'm not giving up biking, its my second bike. I bought it for emergency transport/winter hack last year following an accident where my 600 bandit was written off. I've sice procured my lovely naked black curvy s.v.
I don't need the money from the sale particularly (not that I'd get much), its more for shed space.
This bike is to be honest the worst bike I've ever ridden, but simultaneously the most fun. Its won an award at a rally (best rat) and has always proved to be a head turner when I'm out and about.
However, last year, a to$$er in aVW golf drove into the back of me when i was on said benly, and the bikes frame has become a little twisted because of it, which has caused me to devlop a bad back from riding in a funny position.
I no longer really need it as my s.v is back on the road :D
my head says to get rid of the benly, but something within me thinks i should keep it (maybe put it on a plinth in my living room if I'm not gonna ride it)
What does everyone think?
Bear in mind that E-bay has a half price listing weekend for vehicles this weekend....
