short lived affair

Post by raggydan »

Well I've had my VTR for approx 3 months, after wanting one fo manyr many years, and have ridden it a total of 3 times. :thumbdown:
Don't get me wrong its alovely bike to ride but I just dont seem to find the time, and I did find a lovely example.
Added to the fact that the last bike I rode was an adventure style bike so I got rid of my leathers and other bits n bobs.
So......if any of you know someone who is looking for a good clean bike, 2001 yellow, low mileage and in very good condition then
send them my way. I'm looking for £1900.
I will add that I don't need a quick sale, I'm not desperate for the dosh.
Raggy.

As in a lot of things in life, it sounds like your dream of owning a motorcycle again was not in reality what you really wanted. Glws,

Just my 2p, but I have had whole years when my bike of the time didn't turn a wheel. I too wasn't desperate for the money so just let it sit. Then one Sunday morning the urge returned and I just had to get out there. I must have been mad, it was peeing down but I had to do it. A few months later and the 'storm was on my drive. So don't do anything too hasty, it does come back!

I too put mine on here to sell, but changed my mind. So glad i didn't, Think very carefully before rushing into anything.
missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
