Sold Miss Beemer today

dcarver · Oct 24, 2005

In order to completely finance my 06 FJ and to thin the herd, decided to sell my 91 FLHTCU and my 84 R100T BMW, aka 'Miss Beemer'.

Miss Beemer sold in one day. Now I'm having second thoughts. Great bike. No beauty queen, but started, ran flawlessly, provided +75 miles / day with nothing more than oil and filters.

It sure hurt to see the new owner ride her out my driveway..

Ever had the same feeling? Like maybe you just messed up?

Sure hope the Harley sells. I don't care about that bike anymore.

Please be here soon, April/May. I need a new mistress.

I damn near cried when the new owner rode off with my '99 VFR. I wish I still had it. Then again, I prolly wouldn't be here if I still had it. Hey, maybe you guys wanna buy me a VFR so I'll go away?

Honestly, I've been jonesing for a new ride. If a could find a stock '99 - '01, I might bite. Either that or the new Buell Ulysses is rather captivating...

I hate it (allmost) every time I sell a bike, even the ones I never ride anymore.

Yeah, the two bikes I regretted selling and still miss...

1972 Kawi H2 750

1975 Kawi Z1 900

I don't regret the most recent sale of a Warrior, but do miss that snarling beast.
