Hi Guys :hellobye

My bike is starting to show some serious signs of wear and tear. 2nd gear is gone and she's starting to blow a bit of smoke. I think this might be the beginning of the end for the bike. :cryin She has been ridden hard.

Thing is, I can't decide wheather I should spend the :dollar on her to get everything fixed up.
Of if I should sell her quick and be bikeless for a year or two :scared , then buy a new one. :thumbup

I haven't been without a bike for more than a few months since I was a kid :riding , so getting rid of it is a big thing. :fact

Anyone have any suggestions? I just can't decide! :dunno

Being without a bike = HELL

If its not something big then fix it. then ride it till you can get a new one.

Don't stay without a bike. not now for sure, this is THE
season for us.

Whatever you do, stay safe.

It only cost me about $400 worth of parts to redo my tansmission in my old 600. I say fix it and take better care of it this time.
Yep, looks like my suspicians have been confirmed!

Once the One is in our blood you're screwed. :p

I think Im gonna get it fixed, and ride it nicely till I finaly sell it beginning of next year. At least this way I'll have some time.
