  • I just can't wait

    I sold my Bandit to get cash for a new house... i'm closing the day after tomorrow. I still have a cruiser, but i feel naked without a sport bike. I can't wait to get another Katana. I'm itching. (before you ask.. I can't sell the cruiser because I inherited it from my Dad)

    I've tried many different bikes, and thought long and hard about what my next one would be, and i've come full circle to end up wanting a Kat same as what I started with (probably 750 this time)

    I am forcing myself to pay off ALL my credit cards first. I will have this done by February. I've paid off 4 cards in 4 months... only a few to go.

    Just in the last week, i've been able to raise about $600 just from selling stuff on CL and ebay... spare parts, some stuff around the house I wasn't using, an old IPhone, etc. All this goes into an envelope that I keep hidden in my sock drawer.

    so I'm scraping together all I can in the meantime in the hopes that I can get it sooner. I figure i'll have a pretty good selection by the time I reach 2700 or 2800.

    The reason I'm writing this on here is because my wife is tired of hearng about it. And I know you guys understand what it's like.

    thanks for listening.

          That's the problem with kids ... they get between you and the things you really want!

              no, i needed the money asap (closing is tomorrow) and I didn't have 2800 worth of junk to sell.

              i sold my bandit for 2800, which is what I opaid for it 5 months earlier, so that worked out

                  exactly! that's the motivation I am using to sacrifice and get the cards wiped out first!
