Sad Time as am thinking of maybe selling my FZ1 - chaparral02 - 09-04-12
The last of my biking friends i go riding with and touring with is selling his motorbike as he very short on funds and needs the money...
With none my other mates owning a motorbike anymore, i don't know if it really worth me keeping my FZ1 as i don't seem to get much enjoyment anymore when going out riding on my own or feel like going touring on my own..
I live in guernsey which is a very small island and has a 35mph max speed limit,So most my riding fun use to mainly comes from me and my mates taking are motorbikes away to france..
I love my bike and have been riding motorbikes from the age of 14 (am now 43)
I really don't know what i want to do right now...

easy to sell difficult to replace once you've done it

I can see why, you can't just go for a quick blast when the mood suits.
How about an enduro bike. Is there any where you can go off road on the island. Anything over 35 on a 250 single cylinder on the road aint breathtaking anyway but as soon as you hit the dirt it's a blast

That was Jersey :pokefun Anyhow he moved to Somerset and the murder rate quadrupled there !!
I've only just started with an Enduro bike and I wont see 50 again :lol
It's great fun, ok you do fall off in the mud every now and then, but it's slow stuff and I laugh out loud everytime :lol

He didn't come to Somerset, it was Oxford way, we had some private detective pillock in the seventies called shoestring.

Oh bollix it was Midsomer wasn't it. Oxford way eh? Wonder how Morse rates him?

With great difficulty no doubt, especially as he's six foot under. :lol
