Up behind Walyunga National Park. Let me know if you get wheels and I'll organise a run through there.

If it was a woman old you sell it? No you wouldn't.

I had an immaculate zx7r, I sold I as I thought I didn't want it. 6 years later I am still here looking for another. It is only when she leaves that you realise you can't replace that easy. I should know, the wife still here!

some were sold for health - motivation to walk and run more..

some were sold because they got broken...

others were sold just because the insurance cost too much for it to be sitting... and the fuel cost too much to ride...

but after every bike... there comes a time of remorse... picking the next bike is always the hardest!

... I'm still looking for a replacement to the 12....

Yes I did. Best decision I ever made. And put me in a position to make some of my favourite bad decisions since!

Heh!

Hmmm well I certainly beat you there..... my ZX6R tracky has not been ridden since.... hmmmm sometime in late 2009...... and that was only briefly, as I had trouble sorting it out @ EC... my last successful track day was 29 April 2009..... somewhat successful, as I put the bike into a tyre wall @ OP......

Ahhh here's hoping next year I can get it back on the track..... with some help from Gos ;) After I move back to Canberra!

Philbo I rekon sell it and buy something else when you're ready to ride regularly again. I wouldn't personally follow my advice though :lol:
