Yeah, the new bikes look really sweet, but I don’t see myself spending that kind of coin for one.
I think I paid $9,700 for my 250 back in 2010. It was totally worth it, as I actually got out to ride it. Got my money’s worth the first five years for sure.
I think I put 3 hours on it last year, and none the year before that. Maybe 10 hours total in the last four years? I was going to sell it, but don’t think I’ll bother. For the maybe $4k I’d get for it, may as well keep it around. It’s still in fine shape and fun to ride when I do get out on it.
