Missing it already...
Sad day today!
Today I'm selling my bike that I've owned for 10 years from new. It's been through a few changes over the years but has served me well. We've road around most of the country together and had some cracking times, but the time has come to let it go. I've not rode it much over the last year and it's a shame to let it sit there deteriorate. It's not even gone yet and I'm missing it. I've enjoyed my time here and from all the forums I've been a part of, this has been the most friendly, helpful and informative of them all, by far! I may be back, but for now, Thanks & Bye John. |

Re: Missing it already...
You're not knocking the biking on the head completely are you John?

Re: Missing it already...
I've still got my little 40 year old Honda Monkeybike that I want to road register, but for now no biking.
I'm hoping the Sv will make enough to let me buy a 750 race car. I hope it'll give me a bit of fun on track and the wife will be happier not worrying about me out on the bike. But I'm fickle, so will probably be back at some point... |

Re: Missing it already...
It's a pointy, but would take a bit of TLC to bring it back to it's former glory.

Re: Missing it already...
NOOOOOO!!!!!
I'll never forget you checking up on that dodgy dealership, when I had to send the Raptor back on a van! You truly set my mind at rest!

A good home???
From what both of you have told me, the pair if you crash all your bikes and can't maintain a little Honda... (says him who just let his bike stand there rotting :$) Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk |
