    Re: 900 Restored Runner and a Wealth of Spare Parts. For Sa

    WHAT?! WHY?! What did the 900 do, attack the missus? Oh wait, I know. You went out and got yourself a real whopper of a ticket, right?
    Geez man, I wish you'd done this before I get wrist deep into the guts on the 900 basketcase sitting in my garage!
    But if you're serious and want to sell the machined head separately, I'd be happy to take it off your hands.
    I still can't believe that you- Mr. XJ900 - is gonna sell that beauty...
    Kinda bummed, really, but I guess you gots your reasons...
    I hope you're not selling the Midnight too.

    It boils down to losing the argument that I "Need" two bikes is I can only ride ONE.

    I'm in a lose, lose situation. My family would prefer I had no motorcycles to ride. Both my daughters lost very close friends in MC accidents and still grieve the loss of their close friends.

    The "We don't want that to happen to you" is their Platform for debate. They turn their own argument around and say its TWICE as possible if I have two bikes. (Women's logic ... don't make sense to me!)

    Anyway, It comes down to a "Space needed for expansion" too. And the 900 with all the spare parts really takes-up a whole lot of territory.

    I've had more friends and friends of friends die in car accidents than bike accidents. In fact, I've never had anyone I know die in a bike accident.

    So tell them that you will need to sell one of their cars (assuming their old enough to drive) so that you halve the risk of them getting in an accident. Oh and make sure they know that only one of them can be in the remaining car at any given time.

    Enrichment Valve ... YES!

    I forgot all about that. All I did in my spare time this season was take-out the the Max for a cruise.

    PM me and we'll smooth-out the details!

    If you have a pic I can see I may be interested in your 900. I have an '85 XJ700 Maxim and looking for a bigger bike so please let me know.
