So...
the guy I bought the 916 from delivered it to the one armed bike guy (me)
today, trailered it down here the 50 miles from his place.
Nice touch, I thought, a full service bike seller.
But the real icing on the cake was that my NX250 went home with him on the
trailer, leaving me without the need to advertise and sell it as I had
planned.
So I ended up with just the right number of bikes and two I know I will ride
frequently.
It all worked out perfectly!
And now I have enough money to pay for my first service...:)

The retired guys might want to try this. They should finish by April.

It doesn't get much sexier than that.

Consider this ams-er envious!

On that note, my new years resolution:
