The One That Got Away

[pdedse]

Here's another one. I test rode a 2000 when they first came out, loved the bike, but didn't follow through with the purchase. I later had a change of heart but after they were discontinued after 2001, I couldn't locate a new one anywhere. This disappointing "missed the boat" experience is what prompted me to buy a CB1100 DLX as soon as I had the opportunity.

Sounds familiar...before I bought a leftover '14 standard, I tried buying a 2000 or 2001 W650 for about a year; I was ready to buy 3 different ones but they sold before I could make an offer. There were another 4 or 5 that were priced too high.

Then the price started falling on those leftover CBs and that made the decision to move on easy.
