One if the wheels are off and bike in bits you cant ride anyway.
Two it will look the dogs when you get back on in a few months.

Good luck Blue and if you need a hand any time you know where I am.

i agree get round to those little jobs you keep putting of !


hope your treament goes well blue and wish you a 100% recovery buddy

oh and if it was me as you guessed i woudnt sell the bike personally

No way to selling, park it up see what the doc comes back with, then decide. It might be a visual impetus to get you back on a bike (if thats still an option obviously). Whatever happens best of luck mate!

You already know the answer....BE POSITIVE and all will be fine and you will be back in the saddle in no time...

and as said 3 months without riding is 3 months of honeing the bike to be all it can be just like you will be after said opp

"ninjer"
honeing the bike to be all it can be

you obviously haven't met blue.........it's a strugle for him to just wash the bike let alone anything else

Pretty discusted Blue to see you've gotta ask a question like that...should have been no hesitation on your part...you've got Statley's mobile number why the bloody hell aint ya phoned him to see if a REAL BIKER wants a real bike...TUT TUT...you should hang your head in shame not thinking about your ridin buddy

While down at RidersRest in mid France last week, there was a lot of talk about a huge amount of new & 2nd hand bikes leaving the UK for other European Countries due to bikes costing more abroad - what I'm saying is if you sell you might find it tricky replacing them at a later date.

I know from experience over the last year that it's difficult finding a brand new FJR

there are alot of bikes heading towards poland. Just ask devonkitchens, his sv went east with a few others for a quick sale with big profit

Yep there's lorry loads of sub 4k bikes heading east this year. Some of the dealers in the midlands have had 7.5tonne trucks rock up and leave with upto 10bikes loaded up and shipped off to poland

Going to be a shortage of decent used bikes in a year or so. Will be good for the big dealers selling new bikes but not good for our pockets

Won't be mine. It on about 16K so far i think

3 months is no time...mine is a garage ornament for longer than that through winter....park it up and forget about it for a while and see how things go
