Do i miss her ? YES. - TCB - 14-04-2011

    Hi Guys and Girls , 4 weeks ago i had to make the decision to let my Hayabusa go ,the decision was one i had to make ,this was the result of having meningitis and related complications ,as much as the decision was mainly a financial one it was also a decision to own a bike that i would be comfortable on and still enjoy riding , i test rode a few different bikes and found the Suzuki 650A V Strom which has an upright riding position a 22 litre fuel tank and is light and easy to ride (a guy i work with asked me did i take off the bottom half of the fairings from my Hayabusa?) he didn't realise it was a different bike ,do i miss my Busa? YES, was it the right decision to let my Busa go? YES ,if past events had been different i would still own my Busa ,sometime things in life just don't work out quite as we want it to . Cheers Paul ...Ride Safe.

We're glad you're still riding Paul, that's the important part of it all.

Good on you. I bet you're still enjoying the ride too.

Cheers
