Though I truly find that offer to be a bad idea, I'll be first in line to ride that bike. Nothing I enjoy more than riding a different style/brand of bike every chance I get.
The harley departed this past fall. I was doing a lot of work out of town, and a lot of longer days. We only had one vehicle so I sacrificed my Harley to get my wife a small SUV. I had planned on getting rid of that Harley anyway, as there were a few things I didn't like about it that were changed on newer models, not to mention the 110hp difference between my Hayabusa and the Harley left me feeling a little empty.
I sold my KQ last spring. I hadn't hardly used it the summer before, only used it once over the winter, and knew time wouldn't permit using it last summer. Also with the family growing it wasn't big enough for 4 people, and I couldn't afford to buy another at the time.
As my kids get older I wish I wasn't such a workaholic, but can't seem to get my mind around changing that, so instead of buying another bike for "me time", I decided that it was much better to get some thing that we could use as family time. The 2 ATV's will be awesome for that.

My bikes are always available to ride to a buddy. The way you ride I would have to turn the other way, but least I would be able to find out what the bike is capable of haha.
My current job doesnt allow me to be a workaholic at it, but I just fill my time working on other stuff. Being a workaholic doesnt ever seem to go away man. Ive been one since I was a kid, and no end in sight!
Morning to ya all, hell of a nice morning out here, not the warmest, but the sky and the sun was amazing this morning.

I may ride hard, but I'm never about to wreck someone elses stuff. Now if I had my own bike up there at the same time and we traded and agreed to make them perform...all bets are off 
I like to push the limits, but at the same time, most toys that I've had or will have, are able to perform way beyond what I can make them do.
My sled? It's been thrashed. The KQ? It's been thrashed. Numerous dirt bikes I've had...thrashed. My street bikes...treated with the upmost respect, knowing full well that disrespect leads to major pain or death. Neither of which I enjoy on a regular basis.

Damn Sherwin, you sound like your rough on stuff haha. I definately ride hard from time to time, but Im to damn worried about the cost of replacement parts to wreck stuff lol.
Morris where did you say your new renters are from...?
I had a damn good day today actually! Pretty slow but interesting day at work, came home and finished the railing on our deck, "rebuilt" the injectors for my 302, then got to relax a little.
Cant complain!
