Crap, the dude just claled me about my bike, hummm

I was gonna sell my Kawasaki 750RR for $1500. Gonna get parts to complete my engine swap, but im having second thoughts on selling the 'cycle. Someone reassure me, my car is gonna kick ***!

I bought this bike for $1500 a year ago and I did over a $1000 worth of work to it last summer. I mean its basically brand new now, Damn im gonna take a beating from hell on this one...

That is a damn sweet bike and if you've poured both money and time into it, I'd keep it. Hell, 1500 isn't all that much money, and I imagine the bike is worth more than that to you. So tuck it away in the garage and pull it out a couple times this summer just to have a little fun. Besides, nothing beats having back-up transportation that is reliable/fast/fun/good-looking and a regular car that is a 7.

Well, when the guy looks over in his Vette on the highway and laughs, then you promptly blow his doors off, I think it will be worth it

Well its got some marks on the farrings because I let someone ride it and they laid it down! Pissed me off, $300 of the $1000 was for new front and rear tail lights, a brake handle, and few other things the 'fu^ker' broke off my bike. And all he had to say was sorry, I was yeah I got a sorry for ya, POW!

Well anyways, if I dont make some CASH fast, this aint getting done this summer. But you guys are right $1500 really aint ****...

Reason im reconsidering is 2 things #1 chicks dig bikes! and #2 I got on it a few days ago when it warmed up a little and I was holy ****, im gonna miss this..

Thanks guys
