No, can't be true, the "king" is not for sale surely???
My thoughts have been leaning this way of late, yes.
The case for (selling):
1. I haven't been using it very much lately.
2. I have 2 other bikes, Drz400 & R100GS.
3. I could do with the space in my garage/wood workshop (my occupation).
4. I could do with the money to A. Update my combination machine (woodwork) as mine is going wrong with regular monotony and is a bitch to work on. This would cost about £8/9K.
or B. Buy another bike – possibly maybe KTM 1190 Adv R.
5. The whole Harley groove thang leaves me a little cold. Sometimes I feel a complete dick riding it. I know that is daft but that is the way it is.
6. It is a very single purpose bike – touring (which it does well).
The case against (keeping it):
1. When I do ride it I think "yeah, this is niiiiice!"
2. I now have it how I wanted it.
3. I've spent far too much on it and would lose a lot of that.
4. I already have 2 off-road oriented bikes, why buy another. I most likely wouldn't keep the KTM long as I hate paying for dealer servicing etc and hate the feeling of being at a corporates mercy.
5. I could save for new woodwork machine.
6. Regarding No 5. in the case for selling: Get a life you fucking bell-end.
So there you have it...the case for and against, opinions welcome!
