Sorry to hear you've had to let that bag of nails go, but sometimes it's for the better. In the past I've spent thousands on old knackers sorting problem after problem, and when it's time to sell, it's like a slap in the face.

So what's your new project bike?
I've currently got a Honda CBX750F and have my eye on another cheapie on eBay for £220.

Well 2 bikes pmsfl ones not a project but a suzuki gs500 should. Be a quick and easy one. Cb up for sale already dropped price so whoever gets that will end up with a decent bike for peanuts or I will have 3 bikes lol

Thought you would be keeping the pan after all the work you did on it.

Marital issues and the parts for the pan are astronomical in price took a really big hit on it but you cnt bump up a bike price with receipts as to any buyer it's still just what it Is a pan, nee bike is top secret lol but will be the most powerful I've owned yet bit newer than pan but still in my late 90s era as I prefer the carb bike era

Top secret.
Fuck me.
Why?
The last "top secret" was the ultra exotic.............. Pan european.

Now dont get me wrong. The pan is a very decent bike, and i have even looked at the later one myself recently, but i just dont understand why keep a bike you have bought a secret. Seems odd.
