Not sure what to do.

Thanks everyone for the replies......some wise words there.




So i've basically decided to aim for a new bike next year & with a bit of luck i can start looking next winter.


I'll keep the fazer for 1 year & see how i get on with using it for the days that are ok but still a bit of shit on the roads.....i wont abuse it by riding it through winter but i've got a feeling a new bike will make me a little ocd so it will be kept for the really nice days.....if the bike continues to be reliable then my dad can use it when he comes to visit as it would be nice for him to do some Wales rideouts......i can strip off parts at my leisure to overhaul such as the brakes without worrying that i dont have a bike to use...will keep me learning....that's half the trouble.....i wait a big chunk of the year to get on my bike & then something acts up & im spending valuable riding time trying to fix it because i'm always learning new stuff.


If it breaks down big time then i'll strip it & keep the parts safe.......because who knows like yous say i might end up buying a mint condition fazer again in future so then i'd have a steady parts supply too.






I think where i am it would be easy to just buy another mint fazer & use mine as a good spares bike for it.......but it just aint a spares bike yet.....& it would be a shame to never try anything else....if it were a rare bike like an old trx then theres no way id get rid but theres thousands of fazers out there & there still will be if i ever want one again.
