Took Zuky to a mates mate to get her serviced last night, today I get a text saying he has got a buyer for her if I want.

I was telling him I was looking for a new bike...... question is do I let her go for the offered £2,000.

She is 54 plate black k4 s with 7,000 miles, acro full system. I would put her back to standard apart from the can.

Get rid - I think I've seen about a dozen threads where you've said you're thinking about a change, and then what sounds like a good offer falls into your lap. It would be rude not to take it up ;)

Borrow another bike for an afternoon then have another go on Zuky. If after the ride on the other bike you are still feeling like selling Zuky, then go for it. I recently had the joy of a CBF600 to borrow. I have never ridden anything as dull as this bike, getting my Sylvie back will make me enjoy riding bikes again, I have not grinned while riding since she went away and have even been going pillion to avoid the Honda.

+1 Good advice here.
Also is it enough to buy or make a down payment on another bike you like or will you be bikeless afterwards????
Don't think I could give up riding for any amount.

Orose has done it for me, I do want summat else so much just been thru a lot with Zuky and over come alot on her, I was hoping to keep her and buy another but I not that rich.
Fact is I declared her off road, never done that before.

I think if the gal wants her she can have her.

I have just insured her, paid in full do I loose that if I have no other bike to transfer it to or will they send me some back ? Silly question but its 6am I not awake yet ;)

depends on insurance company etc and premium paid

you should get most of your money back

I was only offered 25 % of my premium after 2 months from carole nash when I suggested that their new bike quote was out of order and wanted to cancel. It may be a delaying tactic so best no suggest you are getting a new bike when calling them first if you intend to cancel. I shopped around and funnily :? the next quote they came back was only slight cheaper than 25% of original premium + cost of new policy with another company.

If its under 14 days i think you may be able to cancel without incurring loss to premium

It's £500 quid more than my K6 sold for, but that did have one or two 'cosmetic issues'.
