You've lost that lovin feelin

Positive words of encouragement from Joe and Gary; the worse thing for me is seeing it there all the time. Whenever I mothball it and put it somewhere where I cant see it i'm fine then someone suggests a ride, I dig the fucker out bring it home prep it then nobody can make it on the dates they agreed then I dont put my name down for the rides posted as it seems a lot of hassle to drive 60 mile round trip to go and get it, use it once, have to look at it and work around it for ages until I can be bothered to take it back to my grandmothers and put it away (which is a massive pain in the ass)

I cant be asked latley. Bikes been sorned since Feb but wont sell it.
1. I,l waste the money
2. when its gone i know i,l miss it even through im not using it.
3. Like garry said it,l only cost more if i want to replace it after selling it.
4. Better to have it in the corner and not use it than not have it.
Just seems lot easier and less bother to go pedling latley

Maybe we should do a vets return of the MoJo ride... then again I probably wouldn't put my name down because it would be cold and muddy and the bike would need washing..... fingers crossed I dont loose that loving feeling altogether

Yes good advice there chaps, im not going to sell it until ive given it a couple of goes in the new yr, im gonna get a road bike nxt yr hopefully but if the smoker does go ill be getting something nice ....... or at least thats my plan

Imagine if you had a new 450 in the garage at the best part of £8500 and not using it , fakinell that would be painful !!!!

If your knees buggered i wouldent fancy trail riding a 990! If you lose your ballance or something and put your leg out as you do automaticaly thats half a ton of bike going over on your knee ouch.

i think the weather at this time of year is a factor too, im out in brass monkey weather during the week, doesn't exactly inspire you to do it again at the weekend for fun.
come febuary i will be out a lot more.

Agree Jul, you need to be more than fit to take a 990 off road & you know what your like when you get wondering whats up there

Yup I know that just got to be sensible on it
