spencer 0 #1 April 24, 2003 I have a problem. I own a Duc 748, but since I have taken up skydiving when the lads ring me for a ride out I am turning them down in favour of jumping, to start with I would try and fit both in. I would only ride on nice sunny day's, so yes I'm not a true die hard all weather rider, I've done all that. I have told the lad's that I thinking of sell the bike and they all say I'd be crazy. But none of them have jumped and when I tell them about how it feels, well you know, there not on my wave band. So to have a bike just sitting there in the garage when the weathers nice, when someone could be out having fun on it. To own a Duc was once a dream, then I took up skydiving, the rest you know. Eddy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JJohnson 0 #3 April 24, 2003 Time to bail on the crotch rocket and get a cruiser. I ride my bike out to the DZ and get both of my fixes. JJ "Call me Darth Balls" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yoshi 0 #5 April 24, 2003 I would prefer a crotch rocket myself... though I havent ridden much since a pretty bad accident... only been on a bike 2-3 times in the past 3 years...I t-boned an 88 ford bronco that pulled out infront of me (82 year old man that said he never saw me comming) and after denting his hood with my helmet (luckily I was wearing one tht day) and flipping in the air to land about 15-20 feet past it I wound up with micro spasms up both sides of my spine and 2 months in physical therapy (luckily nothing worse)...so I figured Ill stick to one extreme sport to keep my adrenaline at a level I can tolerate:) -yoshi _________________________________________ this space for rent.

Slowfaller 0 #6 April 24, 2003 I'd say keep it because there is a good chance you'll regret selling it, later in life. Feel free to read my sig out loud.Chris --"Someday you will die and somehow somethings going to steal your carbon" -MM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
