I did something bad today..

I sold my 900... :(

Had no intention of selling it, but as they say.. got an offer I couldn't refuse! Would of never even considered it if I didn't have the 1000 in the garage. I definitely have some mixed emotions about it.. but hey what you gonna do.

On a brighter side I did come home with a Victory Vegas Jackpot, so I think I will survive til the 1000 is done. :)

Yeah, very naughty! :P :P :P Just means you be able to plow all the extra funds into 1000. B) Who did you sell it to an acquaintance? Or someone approached you on the street? You had it looking realy good. Like a KZ version of a AC Cobra. Looking forward to seeing the 1000 complete!

Cheers!

I went to a Victory bike show this afternoon, as I wanted to see what was being done to them on a custom level.. Some very nice bikes in the show, and all ridden in and ridden out. The 900 was not in the show, but got a lot of attention. Two of the service guys kept coming back to the bike, and one particular was very interested.. One thing led to another and bang!

here is a question i always like to ask to play devils advocate :whistle: :evil: .

can you take the money that you got for your kawi and go out and buy another one just as nice?

i really like the victory's 106 c.i.,four valve heads,ohc,an OVERDRIVE six speed transmission.they sound wicked with some aftermarket pipes.nice bikes for sure.

where's the pics?

Man, I must have been really doped up on the NyQuil last night. The part about the Victory didn't register. Congrats!

I know, I know... I actually looked at a 75Z today, all there, but needed some TLC. Dude was asking 4800 for it, which is why he still had it... lol However, I don't think I could of sold it for more money as easily as I did, if that make sense.

Here are a few pics of the Victory. :)

Nice ride! as for the selling your bike, I'll sell anything, I got 2 x-wives for sale, take over payments. The way I see it, take the money and save another one that may have ended up e-bay. ;)

You'll love the Victory. I'm thinking of selling all 7 of my old Kawasakis. It would probably kill me to see them go though. I know I'd cry. Last motorcycle I really liked and sold was back in 1977 and I cried watching it ride away for the last time.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

she's gorgeous!

I cried when my harley went, didnt leave the house for a week when I sold my Chevelle I dont think selling my bike is an option unless stupid money walks up.

although if I had another one in process it might not take stupid money LOL
