It only took many, many years before I bought another. A slippery slope.... indeed.Back on topic..... Sorry to hear the news, dkeshish, but don't blame you - I'd do the same thing. Hopefully, like others have said, it will work out later. Half the fun is building what you want.
Now about the Depends, sorry to hear the news, Pilgrim, but hey, I guess it's better than a wet saddle.

- June 24, 2016, 03:46:59 AMput an ad on Craigslist with a picture of the bike, your twins and explain you need to put them through school and this is your only asset and so you need, $$$$$.$$ and go from there.
You know you will never get back what you paid for it, so if possible look for all the Drifters in your area that are close to the same mods, same miles as yours and use those prices as a base, then the buyers will have to decided on what is the best for them, if you overprice it it will never sell, but you can tell the wife it is listed but good gosh it is just not selling......

- June 22, 2016, 15:25:32 PMFAMILY FIRST. Toys when you can. You got one smooth and clean ride and any owner would be lucky to buy it. I've been getting a ear full from my wife since I bought another bike (my Drifter) last year after selling sport bike. Now my Wife and 3 kids want a Sea Doo for our nearby lakes. I am considering selling mine to and may test the waters if I can get out close to what's in it which it way too much and buying a 1500 for alternate comparison as my future project down the road when wife is happy and kids grown up or I can afford it. One rule in our household no loans on toys. All my extra cash goes into Drifter mods.......

- June 22, 2016, 14:45:25 PMI sold my first HD to pay for my first son... sold my corvette for the second... didn't have anything left to sell for the third...
Believe me, you WILL regret selling it. You will miss it, you will dream about it, you will wish you had it every sunny day and warm summer night. You will hear one in the distance and look for it. You will boast to whomever will listen that you USED to have one. (like that commercial where the grandpa says he thought about buying one but got siding instead!)But, sometimes you have to do what you have to do.
My condolences and I'm glad it's you and not me!!
Don't be a stranger in any event. We will happily share our riding stories with you.
Cheers.
