Hey Mr Self Destruct...a kind offer and also some more interesting facts there mate...what you say is a good point....especially about the finance......ok ill fess up...theres a couple more things going on behind the scenes......my long term job security is currently in doubt....all rumours at present but cuts will be made boo hoo.....so seriously speaking the word on the street is that my job "should" be ok.......but it has been enough to make me feel guilty about forking out 3.5k on a bike just before i found out..........so you see if i sell the bike the money will be in my paypal account...it will be either for a new bike next year when security has been confirmed........or it will be going on bills or retraining to get another job......but at least ill have the money......id hate to be in the sitution of franticly trying to sell all my stuff when i had a good warning........it is also why i am reluctant to spend any more money on non essentials.....ok a bit of fuel cant be grudged can it for a day of fun.....but at the moment it is zero takeaways or luxuries.
But for the above reason i also cant sign ip to more finance & id rather have the money than a trade in.
To top it off my missus isn't working plus she is pregnant....I'm delighted about that , well they say there's never a perfect time don't they but it is yet another reason to not be selfish and make sure i have dosh in the bank should the worst happen.
None of that changes my opinion so far about my thou but it does stop me modding it to get it right for me and that's just tough shit really......if i had the choice i would get that shock out and sent to Nitron for a refurb and set up to my exact spec....then id swap the bars for some nice Gold Renthal bars.....that's about it really...it has mostly all the cosmetic stuff id ever want......ok so ill bring the yokes back up to the top of the forks coz i need more clearance plus my nuts are getting squashed by always sliding forward onto the tank..........the rear sets look the business but id prob get them flogged and changed for some lower pegs........& Mr Self Destruct......i'd love to sell you this bike but i wont kid you on if you are cramped on the 600 it will be worse on this thou.......the rear sets and the position of the bars make for an uncomfortable ride for me..........not exactly selling it am i........it will no doubt sell to someone who already knows what they are all about i think or someone who is willing to do the couple of small mods to get it right.
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
