Don't do it. You'll go down the rabbit hole, have a sleepless night, will start rethinking your life choices, start searching how much a kidney cost and who would want one, how much Angelina would pay for one of your kids... and if ya have 4 of them, would the least favorite one cover the cost of Mandello V100... don't do it, trust me...Cruising Kijiji today for bikes I can't afford
That's what I'm doing right now. I'm bargaining with the devil to get an MV Agusta Turismo Veloce. The devil being my spouse that is. What can I sell, what can I live without, how comfortable can I make the doghouse.Did ya mean International Motorsports? I saw they're actively hiring people atm but that's as much gossip I have...LOL

I saw something recently on FB from them that said they were opening a shop in Chilliwack. I'll post it if I can find it again.Cruising Kijiji today for bikes I can't afford , it looks like there is "something going on" in Chilliwack (I assume Matt and Gord's shop).

Reading my own post, what was I asking?? Yes, there was info on Moto Int.s site of a new location in Chilliwack. Maybe our secret agent in Mission has something on that .I saw something recently on FB from them that said they were opening a shop in Chilliwack. I'll post it if I can find it again.
True wisdom.Sit perfectly still, crack a cool one and wait for the moment to pass.
I have discovered honesty at 58 years of age that I too have come to the conclusion that vintage motorcycles enthrall me in a museum or parked outside the Rock Store or a urban cafe, but when it comes to actually wanting one of my own again, I am resolved in my conclusion that I am over those days. Nowadays, I want motorcycles that I simply turn the key, fire her up, and ride with little to no concern about reliability or issue on a trip.and I am sooo over old bikes.
ha I'm moving completely in the opposite direction... having lost all interest in anything made after 1983 or so.I have discovered honesty at 58 years of age that I too have come to the conclusion that vintage motorcycles enthrall me in a museum or parked outside the Rock Store or a urban cafe, but when it comes to actually wanting one of my own again, I am resolved in my conclusion that I am over those days.

My 1991 BMW R100 Classic is as vintage as I care to get as that motorcycle is absolutely bullet-proof as all last generation BMW R100 engines are.
Beautiful bike ScottWell I spoke too soon. Today I bought a stunningly beautiful mint condition 1989 Mille GT with 2,427 original miles. I will have to reseal the motor and gearbox but I know a mechanic who works cheap!
I’ve lusted for one since the day I walked into Pro Italia in Glendale and saw a brand new 1989 in red just like this one. At $6995 back then, at my age, it was truly a pipe dream.
Now, I’m reliving my youth!
God help me…
