Dunno. I'm only 65 now, so probably not soon. When I feel I'm no longer safe on a bike or behind the wheel most likely.

I'm only 19 and I have to sell mine (check the classifieds if your interested) but I'm pretty sure it wont be my last. I just need to make sure I put myself in place for a good oppurtunity down the road.

meh. I have other financial responsibilities. At least it should allow me to get a dirt bike (see my 125/250 thread). I'm gonna be really sad to see it go. someday I'll get another tho. hopefully soon

What kind of question is that? Contemplating an end to sportbike riding? Blasphemy! Careful or we'll have you burned at the stake.

You guys keep talking about when your back gives out..... I've had a bad lower back for several years now (bulging disc) and a sport bike is way easier on my back than a cruiser. A cruiser makes you slouch and sort of relax..... half an hour riding like that and my back is toast. On the CBR I can go about 2 - 3 hours before I need to get off and walk around for a while. For me....its a sport bike or nothing....
