This is where the sticker shock comes in...it's cost me almost $9000 so far (between initial cost and repair work) and sometimes doesn't even make it out of the driveway. I'm hoping these last few fixes will be
it for a while though I know 6 months from now if I do keep it I'll be dumping more money into it.
That aside I still can't picture myself on a Kawayamazuki...They're like furniture. My Tiger is like family. Frustrates the hell out of me sometimes but I still love it. Though being able to ride with my friends on the weekends knowing I'll make it both out of the driveway
and back home would be a nice feeling.
My wife (who has been pushing me
real, real hard to sell it for almost a year now and actually started this whole thing) actually suggested last night that I wait it out. I'm still trying to figure that one out...women...
