Hopefully another is on the horizon? I'm Selling the Pan if he's interested?? I know when we chatted at Durham Social he said the VN was getting the better of him.

True, but he’s worked up to it. Now have to start from the bottom again. He’ll get there but was genuinely inconsolable...none bikers just don’t understand...if I hear “it’s only a bike” one more time, I’m gonna punch someone in the throat

It's not just a bike it's part of you. I like to think something better round corner it helps sometime. Hope you both get sorted and enjoy it again

Same as a pet, becomes family. I did sell one of my bikes because it was soulless to me and hadn't become family even after 5years giving it a chance. It found a new home.

Have you a friend or family nearby that would have the space, you've probably thought of that though?

The Vn was kept at my mums which is 15 minutes away, but when he starts work at six and “wants to go on the bike” that rules it out as I don’t think mum would be happy being woke at 530 lol

I had one of these. Brilliant bike. Only sold it due to every time I went into the garage I chose to ride my Blade at the time. It needed to get used and go to a good home. Had a mate ride out with me on his. Could never shake him off with my blade. Only down side is trying to hold onto the dam things with them being unfaired. Oh yea you can never wear out the front tyre for some strange reason
