Time for a grom

 

I need that. Neighbor offered me $650 for the project bike. I might just do it

 

You did get it for nothing....

 

Yea anything is better than nothing. I spent $175 on the truck plus gas

 

Yeah, the 500 seems like a great bike. I've been watching craigslist for one with ABS for my daughter. She rides my Indian and needs her own bike. Hate the circumstances that will cause people to sell, but it is what it is.

 

Just do the project bike

 

There is a 2018 black one for sale but it’s 330 miles away from me and he wants $2800. Stock with 1300 miles. I was tempted to offer him $2k but I don’t want to spend gas money picking it up.

 

Nice. Wish I could find one like that. I’m gonna get a new guitar and amp though with my crf money and the rest goes to the Harley payment

 

Ughh....
In other notes, it has the full harness. I could get a kick start pedal and see if it runs.. then use the engine stop button

 

Project bike is cooler

 

I know. But I really don’t have the space for a grom. I barely have room for the Harley. I told my girl I’d keep the grom in the living room. That didn’t go well

 

Did you tell her she can learn to ride it/ ride it? If not you should have!

 

Just texted this guy. If he will take $1500 it will be in my garage tomorrow. Wife is going to kill me...

I did. She said she wants to learn to ride. She still needs a helmet though lol. But she’s out of work right now so she can’t buy one. And I’m not bank rolling a helmet for her, I got my own toys to buy

plus, going for a ride is my “me time” and my chance to get away for an hour or two

 

Fair enough. But that doesn’t get you a grom

 

No, but it gets me a shiny new axe to play I’ll get a grom in a year or two once the Harley is paid off.

 

By then I should be able to do the Baja 1000 trip on the grom

 

And I have to ride cross country on one, just to go on the trip?!
