OTD 2014 Standard

Hitting the warm states first? Why in the world did that dealership in Wisconsin get one already then? It isn't warm here just yet, heck it snowed today!

In the end you will really never regret what you pay. It's a great bike and riding makes any price seem irrelevant.

Agreed, I know our money's worth more but I paid £7600 for a nearly one year old 13 with 104 miles on.

Yes we pay more pro-rata, but our wages are much better and our houses are worth more, so all is fair in the end.

$9,875 for my '14 Black CB1100 with another $200 off for cash. I consider that a win.
I pried another $2500 out of his pocket for my '06 CB600F6. I consider this a loss because I was too excited and lazy to sell it myself. Probably good for another $500.
Goofy weather up here has it holed up at the dealer until ??

Nice work.
And for that extra 500 you would have had the pleasure of meeting every young squid out there w just enough cash to try and steal your bike. Then likely crash something you took care of.
You dodged the bullet.

Yeah, I told him Ohio must have got some by mistake then!

Your right Romo. One other person had said the same thing.

Regardless of what could have happened, the "599" was exceptional. It was not popular due to its high price tag being an Italian built bike, but it had personality. Sure, it had the heart of a sport bike but you sat in a more natural position. The flat slide Carbs were the last for Honda (yes it had a choke) and that added character. It was a bike you still had to communicate with. Not like the seamless machines of today where you can slam her in gear before the starter quits spinning.

I guess this is my "599"'s epitaph since it's been my partner for the last 9 years.

Well, you know. They must be Packer fans.
