This is more of a will sell if someone shows up with a reasonable offer than a must sell.  I'm giving it until October 1 to sell and if it doesn't I'm keeping it until the next bike, which'll probably be early 2010.

It sold on Saturday.  Will probably start looking at another in September of '09, but first will be pouring $$$ into the house fund.

Did it sell to someone locally and do we know that person? I thought we as a group had to collectively approve of the buyer before making the sale.  :P

Hope you still c'mon around to the functions and M&G's Doc.  [drink]

One of the SETxDOC members bought it, so I'm sure some of y'all Ellington area residents will see it running around down there.  He sold his Multistroodle 620 the day before I listed my bike for sale.

House bug and the time value of money overrid my desire for a bike.  It was either keep the bike and be in a position to buy a house in 3.5 years or sell it and be at the same state in 2 years.

not that it matters now, but sweet bike.  I like what you did to it.  No overkill, tasteful.  Plus, it's cool for me to see what I things I can copy for mine.  I like that DP short tail, hugger, mirrors, etc.

good luck with the house.  I've one now and try to find spare funds to 'waste' on the bike ;)

That would be me!  Took it out for a great (but too short) ride on Sunday.   Maybe I can make one of the Monster meets in the area sometime.

Thanks for everything Allan, it was a pleasure buying the bike from you.  I'll take good care of it...

Awesomeness!

You are now charged with the mission of posting copious pics and giving test rides to all of us on the board so that we can test your bike and make sure it's in good working order before letting you take that awful risk.

The fact that the bike came from who is probably one of the most attention to detail members here is no deterrent, you never know!  ;)

Nice going and welcome.  [thumbsup]

As a rule we always rotate paying for the drinks tab between members on meet-n-greets. The order was based on the bike belonging to its respective owner, this was decided long ago and is updated periodically to suit our own agenda. So as luck would have it, its your turn to pick up the tab at the next meet-n-greet. Congrats again and we'll see you soon.  [beer]
