I thought I would start a forum so here goes. You wake up one morning and you have no money and no credit. Would you sell your bike to get money or would you ride and be broke? Me, I would borrow some gas money and ride. What's your opinion?:twfrox:

I'm still young and I don't wanna die from hunger or cold just yet. SO yeah, I'll sell the bike, get warm and grab some food and start my life over. Bikes changes every few years so I may end up with better bikes years down the road when there are extra money to be spend. Btw, where's the poll?

I'm a racer. We ride to be broke....Money? We dont have any of that but we got a ton of plastic gold trophies....


Its hard to be broke @ 1st, but Im @ the track almost every weekend and that beats a big house, fast car and money anyday. The only thing it cant beat is a good women... and if you need money to get one of those your ****ed anyway.

I lost everything I owned a number of years ago:flush: , except my 2 bikes and a beater car....sold both the bikes, used the money to start a new business, and now I have all the bikes I want.....:wink:

 

[JK_DILLA]

for a while, a motorcycle was all i owned in the world...and that was fine.

Well I don't know about the totally broke thing. But I have had to consider the bike thing carefully within the last month. Being that I have to move. Many people say... "well if the money is tight for the move... maybe you can just put off the new bike for a year or so..." I reply... "hell no, all I have for excitement and pleasure is the bike!" And its true... I don't have ANY other hobbies.

No for the broke with bike thing... I say yes, but push come to shove, if the bike had to go I might get rid of it. But I would reduce my quality of cars first and the house before getting rid of a bike completely!

I agree with GM. I really don't have any other hobbies, so the bike is a must have. I keep putting buying the R1 off, but I want to put down some cash so I don't have to finance so much. I care if I am broke, but I don't want to be that broke. It has been nice the past 3 months with no motorcycle payment tho.

I have several hobbies but motorcycles are at the top.:dthumb:
If it came down to the house or bikes. The bikes would have to go. Till then, Ill ride on and sale any and everything else to survive.

If it means taking care of my family.....the bike goes. I'll sell the bike, get the money, buy a gun, rob a bank, take care of the family, buy another bike....simple huh! :cheers:

****, if I was broke I would try to make it until i got a job. If it came down to it, I would sell it (if I owned it) and recover. Bikes are only gonna get better.

:iagree: :withstupi I dont ride track yet, but :withstupi :iagree:

 

[marko138]

I hate the thought of selling the bike. :nonod: However, my time has come. The gixxer is on her way out here in a couple months. I don't really need the money...although I could use it (and will) to pay off a couple bills.

But...I gotta get another one come riding season. :drool: We'll see how that works out...

 

[snadamo]

The bike is a toy/hobby. If i needed to sell it to survive, so be it. Thats whats good about bikes anyway, you can turn around and sell them quickly(usually), and for cash. And like most said, newer/better bikes come out every year :yesnod:

I love this idea!!!

 

[jeeps84]

I love this idea!!!

It sounds like a solid plan but I'm very :skep:

 

[bumblebee]

I would just load the ladders, tools and buckets into the truck...go clean some windows and not be broke anymore...

been there, done that... that's why we have full coverage eh?
claim the bike, get the money, eat some burgers, then race the bike...

[Trip]

Depends...am I supporting a family or just myself? If I had a family, then the bike would be gone, no regrets at all. If I am by myself it would depend, I have other priorities/hobbies that come before biking.
