To buy or not to buy?

[Mrs Busa Pete]

the Busa has 53k on it now and with me doing 15k a year just to and from work plus weekends how long before its going to cost money other than 3/4 rear tyres and two front tyres per year.
option a:trade on a k7 or k6 busa [$20000-21000]
option b:trade on a zx14 [second hand 12k on it $15999]
option c:just get a work bike so the Busa only does weekend ks
its not about the money its more about the fact that there's not much difference apart from age and the shiny paint
what to do

[Grahameeboy]

Nooooooo..don't buy the shiny white one Pete........that will just be too Gay......nothing against Gays by the way...just a figure of speech

[Mrs Busa Pete]

Not to mention that mrs busa pete has offered o6 busa with 4 into 1 and a power comamdor mind you we all know what colour that is.
WHITE AND SILVER

Buy it..your new catch phrase could be...'Hi Ho Silver away' and your new logon could then become.......Lone Stranger and Tonto....giddy up!

What if it runs on diesel will that help

[Scouse]

Get a new ZX1400 and a smaller commuter like a SV650

a smaller commuter like a SV650

Perhaps a Burgermanfalloffa.....he likes those and they seem to be evolving into the 'SNAG' choice of transport....:scooter:

:killingme :killingme :killingme :killingme :mega: Now sit down

[Mully]

Wasn't Cowpoos/Alltrax leasing buses? Is that worth it with the mileage you are doing??

Other than that, I'd tend towards Option C.

[gijoe1313]

Oh gosh ... you're in such a dilemma ... :lol: Would be weird not seeing you next time on the 'Busa! Seems you define the definition of 'Busas when you're out and about on it!

Ah well, go on, get yourself another bike and make sure your 'Busa is given a good going over in the weekends! Decisions ... decisions!

[puddy]

Get the 14.Become ZX14PETE.not quite the same ring as BUSAPETE but beats riding LIBERACE'S stage prop!

I just wet my pants again. Hey.... weren't they gay?

Hey Busa, wouldn't a second bike cost ya more in the insurance/wof/reg department? Maybe one bike would be more cost effective?

[Mr. Peanut]

Is 53000km a lot?
