[QUOTE="GTC@MSAC, post: 223329, member: 5548"] 8 years ago I sold my '75 GL1000 (the one in my profile pic) to a customer for $3K. While he was trailering it home to FL, he got rear ended and the bike got banged up pretty good. He never did get to ride it, but he has a never doing the repairs as of last fall. So last October, he was hanging around just visiting, and I was not riding for most of last year due to hand surgery. I was depressed, and business was slow due to Covid B.S. here in VA, so I sold him my '81 GL1100 for $3500, the one I had Dan put in the slide show up top. He hasn't stopped by to pick it up yet because he lives in FL and/or MA, and stops by here about once a year. I was finally able to use my hand well enough for clutching around last T-Giving, so I have been out on it several times since then, because it is still living here, lol! But now I'm depressed about selling it, even though it is still here. I don't really have anyone to carry on it, but I'm almost tempted to give him back the money and keep the bike anyways. Then again, I don't really need as I ride alone, and mostly on my '82 Silverwing Interstate. Business has picked up since last year, but not as good as 2019 was, yet. So I really should just let it go whenever he finally gets here, but I'm still sad about it, lol! I think I'll give it a short spin today before the hurricane weather gets here. [/QUOTE]
