Obsessed with bikes!

**hospitalfood** · 12th February 2009, 20:55

the last few weeks i have been out of control.

spending all my free time looking at bikes for sale.
looking at how much money i can borrow.
staying up late on the net reading bike reviews.

there is no balance in my life, i feel like i need therapy. i have been so obsessed i have reached the stage that i feel over it, but im not.
my head is a dangerous part of town.

i hope that the old BMW i am driving 400 odd K to see this weekend turns me on enough to buy it, just so i can get obsessed with something else for a while.

until i need a third bike.

one is never enough!

is this common among KB members, or am i losing my grip on sanity?

hang on, i lost my grip on sanity long ago. forget that bit.

nothing wrong with that

If i could afford to(and the wife would let me)i'd buy another bike weekly...

It's normal.

I haven't enough money.

I'm depressed.

While explaining such things to friends they came up with the conclusion that I shall pass down to you: Get a girlfriend...

Like nallac said there's nothing wrong with that.
I find I'm up on trade me just drooling over bikes and actually writing down financial plans when i know i couldn't or shouldn't be buying one.I don't have my full licence (yet) but I'm always looking at bikes over 250cc even though its a while away.
But yea I'm in the same boat as you mate and I'm sure the rest of Kbers are.

All the best bro

What sort of condition is the bodywork in?

Does she go?

How much servicing is required?
