Words that haunt me...

AAARGH!!!! I sold my 907 about a month ago and have been in a back and forth email discourse with its new owner who sent me the following comments:

*********************
"Just wanted to drop you a line about the black duck. Basically after driving it for 2 weeks....I love it...

I got it licensed 2-3 weeks ago and ordered a vanity plate that says: DUCK-92

This bike rocks.....I can drive it to it's limits without getting killed...I also think the 6th gear is worthless until
you hit 95 mph....the sound as you stated is so cool and the looks are unbelievably gorgeous. I can't wait to take it to my local hangout on Thursday night where 1500 bikers show up...it'll be The hit. No surprises at this end...I just love it and keep thinking to myself...how could you part with it???"
*************************************

Great. Thanks. That's just what I needed to hear. Oh well, it's too late now....she belongs to another guy.

Okay, Boys, enjoy your 907. Maybe you should go out to the garage and give her a little kiss and while you're at it give her one for me. :,(

it's like your ex-wife's new boyfriend telling you: "thanks for buying all the shoes and jewellry for her; she's so cheap to run...she hasn't asked me for a thing except sex, sex, sex..." or " those renovations you did to the house before the divorce were great...I love the views and really appreciate your work".

sometimes you don't know what you've got until it's gone...#sniff#.

Randy mate, you still have an impressive stable there & can rest easy in the knowledge that your 907 will be loved & treasured as it was with you. Good on you for sharing the love.

Enjoy your BM's

Thanks, that makes me feel better. You're right about my stable as there are times when I have to remind myself that there are some guys out there who only have one bike to look at, fondle, and ride. :-P

Seriously, the new owner will love and cherish her and provide her with the proper upkeep. When he's not riding the 907 he has it on display in his office:

Yes, it's a '92 with the 320 rotors however, I don't know about the blinker lenses.
