I buy and sell one almost every month.

In fact, my KTM after just 1hr of use, is getting sold this saturday. The CRF is back on the market, and 1 month ago I just picked up an RSV-R. My garage door = revolving door.

I don't judge, but you better hold onto that Priller for a while.

I'm almost considering selling the Buell when I get it back and going in for a Thruxton.
Depends on how I feel when I get it back.

I'm going blue and white. But, it won't be until I sell the Monster. Anyone want to by my M900?

Don't get me wrong, I love the 1125R, but considering that most (ok...ALL) of my riding is on the street and not particularly challenging (besides dealing with the low speed choppiness in traffic), the Thruxton just makes more sense.
Fun, visceral, but not so far beyond what I need.
My 1125R... what is it MattP said that time "needs a rider upgrade"

I'm too far into my ancient GSXR to ever sell it and I can still keep up with the new ones. When that becomes an issue it'll be time to build the motor to match the rest of the bike...

It's going nowhere. Haha I mean literally, it's stuck at AF1 at the moment.


But ya it's really nice and I went through too much crap to just turn around and sell this one. I can't yet at least until I sink about $3k in aftermarket parts then I'll decide about taking the loss.
