Default Got my first bike back today!

My old Ex500 made its way home, I am very excited! I'm not sure what I want to do with it, keep it or sell it. It is in pretty rough shape because it has been sitting outside for a few years, but it starts and runs with no issues.

Nice. Where was it and how did you get it back? I was just thinking about my R6 today and would love to have it back.

I gave it to my brother 7 years ago for his high school graduation, he rode it through college and for a few years after that. Now he lives in India and is only in the states for a month or two a year so he gave it back to me, signed the title and said to have fun.

Nice. I can't see that happening with my old bike.

Thats too cool. Never happen for me tho. :-( Every bike I ever let out of my hands is crashed and totaled within 6 months (usually significantly less) and not by the person I sold it to. I figured my girls love me so much they cant being sold...

I wonder where my SV is at, I kinda would like to get it back and make it naked. Someone on here saw it at Southern Powersports not long after I sold it, said it was rashed up on one side. I wonder if it is still out there....

I got my first bike back after my dad passed away in 2008 (he rode it, a Buell Blast, after I moved up to a CBR600). It's in pieces right now - working on getting it cleaned up and running again.

If I had a bike with a story like that... especially an EX500... I think I'd keep it forever...
