    To buy or not to buy?

    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

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

    I'm about to do that.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    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.

    Oh gosh ... you're in such a dilemma ... 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!

    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?
