A change is as good as a holiday.....I used to race bikes n jetskis for many years before getting into Pinball...looks like I am going to restart an old hobby which is still alot of fun...I am convinced i will do something after xmas etc...
My brother has been harrassing me to buy a motorbike with him and go for rides like we always used to so i have been doing the rounds looking at the various motorbike dealerships.....If u think the car and pinball industry's are way down on sales, the motor bike industry is bleeding to death and is barely surviving on factory backed life support...bikes that were $18,990 a year ago, are now $13,490 incl all on roads plus extras plus many freebies just to move the stock...they have dozens, if not hundreds of unsold brand new in box (crete) stock from 2010, 2011, 2012, and most dealerships are cancelling bringing in 2013 stock cause they cant sell it..the finance industry isnt lending...the bike industry is a mess...
One bloke who owns 6 large bike dealerships, who sells usually 400 bikes a month between the 6 shops isnt even selling 40 bikes per the 6 shops...its bad, real bad, but good for buyers...
This is the bike I am looking at...one for me, one for my brother, just after xmas probably, cause prices will drop again.
Its apx $75 a week per bike over 4 yrs aprox if u finance the lot n keep the cash in ya pocket for pinballs or other stuff.
