Haha don`t you worry I`m not going anywhere, I`m dead certain I will one day own at least one other Honda motorcycle, what it will be, time will tell. Been juggling with an idea to build a Steampunk influenced cafe/custom either out of a CX500, or if I could find a salvageable wreck, a Valkyrie, but for the time being gonna rock the Daytona, who knows if I might actually achieve my dream next year to have in on display at the MP-16 exhibition since this year`s show has gone already.

Right now very mixed feelings between being very exited about having the Daytona finished after two years of building and having to part with the CBR...

Who knows once I get old enough I might even get an ST1300 PanEuropean

you have multiplekids dont you? they bring a decent pri ce on the black market. you should get plenty enough to pay for all your projects. you can make more. :-)

Oh well, it was worth a shot. For the record, I have 6 and I'm fond of every one.
I certainly hope that some unexpected funds come your way so you don't have to sacrifice your fine F2.

Mattson, if you part with your CBR and the urge to ride one is too great, you're always welcome to swing by Stockholm and I will happily lend you mine for a ride.
