How much longer before your next bike?

RACER X · 06-30-2009, 05:40 PM

what is this new bike stuff you speak off?

may get a 'busa in a few months to add to the flock.

not for a while, next purchase it a new truck and a house. The Harley will be paid in 4, then who knows what ill want.

Although if I could pay it off in 2, i'd possibly look at Ducati 998 or something to park next to it.

But ill probably get another new sled before I buy another bike... Sled season is longer, and im not joking even a little.

thinkin today i might want to hang on to the blade another year or so. i could snag a leftover ten to replace my 954 fairly easily but if i scrimp and save for a bit i could get what i really want, an rsv4. ive been reading early reports from guys in europe who just got theirs and damn if it doesnt sound like its worth waiting for. hopefully they dont detune the base model's mapping. we'll see

had my kawi about 9 years, ive redone it 3times

had the gsxr750 bout a year, would only trade it for a slightly newer one or a daytona 675

Ninja 250 = 5 years though only rode it for 2, just sold it last spring to a guy at work.
600 = August will be 5 years and it's not going any where for a LONG time. 1.) I love it, 2.) I can't afford a new bike and a car payment.

Erik on the other hand...
ZX9 = 4 years
04 ZX10 = 2 years (not quite)
99 CBR = 2-4 weeks
07 ZX10 = 2 years (not quite)
05 ZX10 = 3 months or so

He is the same with cars. I don't care, as long as he doesn't try to trade me in

years

I still got like 18.5k (CDN) to pay on it... and 8 on the Sled. As soon as one is paid, Daddy will have a new toy. But not before. Like I said, next is a truck. Probably a leftover Ford F350(2007 leftovers are 31k about 3 hours from here), or a used F350 King Ranch.

I had the Ninja for nearly four years and the Hornet for about a year.

I sold the Hornet because I needed the cash and well the Ninja...she ain't so pretty or fixable anymore.

If I buy another bike it will be a motard and probably strictly for the track. I don't know that I will ever ride on the street again. I want a fun bike for the track not a 'I have to go fast because my bike is supposed to be fast' bike.
