only rode her once!

I been down that road, and after it was all said and done I wish I had kept the bike. (It wasen't a Busa at that time.) In retrospect there was alwasys a way I could have kept the bike. However, I wasen't looking at like that at the time. It seemed like we were in a crunch, and couldn't get out of it. But I truely believe there is always a way. For example, I drive an 18 wheeler three days a week. When I first bought the Busa, the only way I could afford it was to work extra, so I worked 5 days instead of three. Now I'm back to my three day shift, and we are making it just fine. Things do eventually settle down. It would be a shame to give up something you truely love when the situation almost always resolves itself in a fairly short time, and things are back to normal. Good Luck... Sure hope to get to get the Busa.

When me and the wife got married i sold my gsxr1100 and now that i look back i could of kept it....So like the guys said look at different angles and dont even factor the bike in,leave it to the side and cut corners elsewhere...But also if its binding you that much sell it ...Bikes are easy to buy family you cant buy.Good luck hope you can keep it..

The guys make a lot of sense. Bue I have to agree, if you look hard enough, you may find a way to keep the BUSa! GOOD luck!
