TRADE: my GF for your R6
I have a slightly used girlfriend, 1982 model, white with black top, 5'6",
110 lbs with 36C cups and excellent tail. Features one of a kind exterior,
wild styling, and razor sharp handling. Quite a looker, turns a lot of heads
when parked somewhere. She sometimes runs a little rough but is extremely
fun and performs quite well once you get her going. Has good after-market
add-ons (tattoos, piercings, college degree) and comes with lots of
accessories and some hard luggage. Can be cranky and a bit of trouble to
start, especially on cold mornings. I don't advise using the choke.
Seems to idle okay most of the time, and fuel consumption is good, though
response is best with premium beer. Sometimes she's a little fussy, stops
cooperating without any explanation, and wants to be in control most of the
time. Then again, many of my friend's wives are like that, so it seems like
people don't mind this sort of thing. I've invested a lot in her, and in
some ways.
I'd hate to part with her. However, I realized I'm not looking for a project
that requires this much attention, and the long term cost of maintenance on
an exotic model like this is just killing me. Will trade for any year
YZF-R6. Prefer a straight bike with no issues, minimal modifications.
Ex-race bike is okay if it comes with clean papers and is ready for normal
street duty. I can fix minor mechanical problems, and cosmetic damage is
fine. However, I'm tired of trying to work miracles just to have a
dependable source of fun.
Serious offers only ? no test drives.
