Longest time off-the-road since new
I've been wondering if I have the bike that's been off the road the most
since new...
The bike was originally bought on 6th September last year - it was a
replacement for an insurance write-off. As the guy that had it delivered
was going overseas, he advertised it for sale with only the delivery
mileage on it. There were no takers for quite a while, and when I bought it
in December it had already been parked for nearly four months.
What with Christmas holidays and one thing and another, I only got to the
break-in mileage at the end of January. Then towards the end of summer
- - Feb 8th I had a crash, and haven't been able to get back on the bike
since (foot and shoulder surgery). If all goes well, I might be able to
get back on next week if I get the all-clear from the specialist on
Tuesday. So, the bike is 10 months old, has just done the run-in mileage,
and has been parked for 8 of the ten months. Every now and then I go out
the the garage and start it up, just to hear the engine run....
