I rode a sick nasty gs750 bobber today. Def made me want a similar ride. Maybe with a cb powerplant?

If I could pull together a tiny bit more cash, or be able to get a small loan, I would look to get into another bike. Nothing new though. I've already talked myself out of a supersport until I graduate. Too expensive, and too expensive to insure. (Even though I did find an 03 zx6r for $2500 on Ohioriders.) I've basically talked myself down to a Zuk GSX-650F or a Yami FZ6.

I'm just so tired of dealing with carb bullshit. I think I've fixed something, and get a couple good weeks out of the thing, and then something new shows up. I think I may finish up the year, hold it over the winter and assess come spring. If I get the job in LA, I may sell it so I have some cash to get planted out there. If not and get a job here, I may look to sell and move up.

Much as I hate seeing so many good old bikes getting hacked up by amateurs, the ones done by people with a clue look & sound frickin awesome.

I sold a 675 and bought a 675.

I need to get my decals done and I'll post up new pics.

I've bought a lot of shit lately. But a bike isn't one of them. Acquired a 2nd drum kit, bought a Les Paul, bought about 6 CDs last week.

I'm always looking for another bike...but probly won't buy for a while yet.
