Default its time

Well the wife and I agreed (I didnt even have to beg) that its time for me to get a new bike. The old girl is getting tired and its the right time of year to be selling. Been looking on craigslist and ebay around SD for some new/used bikes. Found a sweet 05 f4i, 4000mi,for around $2500 up in north dakota and an 02 f4i, 2400 mi, for $3500. Looking into RR's and the likes.

You guys might think I am crazy but I think I can get $2000+ for my cane around here since its a college town and students can afford insurance on it.

How much for her??? Does she cook? How about the 'naughty stuff'??? Are we talking about the same 'old girl'??? Nevermind.

Sweet, it's always fun gettin new toys.
Last spring I got my FZR out of hibernation and started riding again.
Wife was concerned for my safety for havin such an old bike (it was onlya '90) and suggested I get a new one.
The rest is history.
Still have the FZRand gettin ready to sell it, but kinda draggin my feet about it.I'm shureI will miss it. But,I do need new gear more than havin a second bike sittinbehind in the garage.
Good luck findin a new ride!!

...New gear...yummy! New gear is way cheaper than a new bike, and safer too.
