silly question but?....would your dad insure for you and put you down has main driver/rider? :rolleyes

I'm the only biker in the family, and the only one with a bike license. Hell, I'm the only one who even LIKES bikes! My Dad never even rode 125s! And Mum had a Yamaha 100cc which never came off L plates for 1 year at uni. So yeah...  :rolleyes

to be honest with you christo?...you say your broke?..and yet youve got that trailer just sitting there doing ..nothing!! :rolleyes  .....with what you might get for that you could poss get a decent runaround!!?...majority of us have at sometime been down this road for something or another?...you arnt the first and defo wont be the last to hit rock bottom!!....you havnt lived yet matey?...thers alot of woes round the corner to come yet?? :rolleyes ....if you want to get bk on road?...you will do!!...and nothing nor no one will be able to stop you?...end of the day matey its up to you!!!!....... :\

I picked up that trailer for £75, and I doubt it's worth much more than that. Plus, that's the only roadworthy thing I have at the moment, and call me sentimental, but I'd rather have that than peanuts for it.  :rolleyes

I have a plan b if all else fails: a friend is selling a CB750 in parts as a project bike. If I go back to France, I'll buy it, do it up, and sell it. Hell, I might do that as well!

Thanks for the input Yamazer. I'll remember that, especially as I've seen SV650 33bhp kits on the Eebs too. 

Exup - I call dibs on fitting a 600cc engine to that!  :lol

On a final note: I do want to get back on the road, but I haven't been back on a bike since the big smash up. And while there's nothing I'd like more than to hop on a bike, I'm pretty apprehensive. I've not been able to ride out the angst, or even work it out by fixing up the bike, so I have 2 months of beating myself up, and endless internal replays of what happened sitting in my belly. Last time I put on the blue leather jacket I was wearing on the day (about 3 weeks ago), I felt physically unable to wear it. I suspect a minor panic attack (or summat). And to boot, I still have the insurance thing hanging over me. I still don't know what's happening on that front. Lots of shit. Lots of things to work out.
