Man how pleased am I…
Does anyone ever feel the bike they have was meant to be, I know this sounds silly but me and this bike have been through soooo much and yet still goes on… I know the damage could have been alot worse and costly but am seriously begining to believe that me and this bike were mean to be.
I have always said I will never get rid of this bike, and that now stands true if I wanted another bike I wouuld have 2 I just cannot bring myself to part with her now.
I understand what you mean about your bike being special to you…
Mine is 23 years old and came into my life by complete fluke!.. Instantly liked her and when she then blew on the m1 after a several hour trip i was devastated…
Thankfully now, after working on her over the winter i’ve got her running better than before
