How about buying back the exact same bike?
I had one of the first XR1200 Sportsters to be delivered in the U.S. I was working at a Harley dealer at the time. Rode the XR for about a year, but I was having physical issues riding the bike comfortably. Traded it in for a Road King. Hated that bike. Just wasn't for me at all. Fast forward a couple more years, the dealer never sold my XR. So I bought it back. About two months later, I had my first real wreck on that bike. After the accident, I could no longer fold my leg up to ride the bike. I ended up selling it privately. My heart still aches for that bike, even though it would just be a piece of art in my living room.
