    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I remember a mate showing up on one of these new. Mind blown. Took it for a ride. Wow.

    Not really for this thread but thought I'd share.

    Harsh but probably fair, mine never missed a beat for 10 years plus but then again it never did anything dramatic or exciting either. 5K... yeah that's reaching.

    With less alcohol in the veins, yes, that was harsh. It was a thoroughly Honda inoffensive appliance. 5k is the offensive bit.

    How did they even manage to achieve that?

    Seems harsh. There's a motorbike mechanic, a good one, who used one of those a commuter for years. OK for a mixture of rural and city roads - if you aren't in a hurry.

    OK and now I've seen your later comment.

    Yeah - that about it - a good reliable bike - but hardly an exciting bike ..

    It's got the word "Harley Davidson" printed on the side of the tank so you can charge $15k more than what it's actually worth.

    Why the fuck would you spend $8,000 on this when you could just get a brand new 300cc Kawasaki or Honda or something for the same price?
