Which GS to sell?

I had the same problem - but with a standard R100 and an 1150. The 1150 has everything - BTBR lights, big boxes, heated grips, blah blah blah.
But I sold the airhead - and I've regretted it ever since.
Keep the bike that makes you smile (or sell it to me...

Sell the F650 to Tina;
that way you keep it in the family!
And if she learn to ride it she can show Knut and me the best part of Northern Wales in July!

Without question sell the F650, it lacks the soul of the Airhead.

The Airhead's really are something special, my folks have had them for over 20 years, I love them. After riding the F650 I realised it's no different to a Honda Dominator, not so cheap but cheerful.
I was tempted to swap the 1100 for a smaller bike, I realised the only move I would make would be to an Airhead.
Get a Bigger Garage,
I've had the same predicament a few times.
I sold a DBD32 Goldie to get married in 1969, split in 1971
. should have kept the bike
since then i've only sold the Bikes I don't like, or have duplicates of.
Thats why i've still got>R60/6, R26, R80g/s 
R90/s 
and a R80/7. all bought since 1972 { when I met my present more bike friendly wife }
when buying a bike, I consider it's dead money, I never even think of what it's Part ex or Sale value is, if I want another, I buy it, IF I Can Afford it 
if not I drool and save till I can.

I've decided

But a belt is 100% OK for a Beemer!
Like my CS! Liv.
