I have lower back issues also man, I feel your pain. I think my lower back is more shot from the 10 years of hockey in mens leagues than from riding the bikes though. I am also 46, and I hear ya about acting 20, its like my wife has 4 kids instead of 3 :cheers

Feel your pain
L5/S1 disk is shot, but I ride ok.
I can't sit up for long in a chair strangely , but I can ride my K3 all day.

Just making the most of it whilst I can...

I hope it's still around next march when my budget will have some slop. As trailer pick-ups go, it's not that long of a haul for me but given what Mtl has to offer, it'll be an excuse to entice you to come-up here for some 'frenchie culture'. Don't tell the missus...sssssssshhhhhhhh :biggrin

Damn, didn't know you were selling your bike. I don't know how bad your pain is but I bet it's a lot for you to consider selling your bike. I too suffer chronic pain from a Femoral Acetabular Impingement on my hip for 11 years now. The leaned over riding position kills me but I load up on anti-inflammatory's when I ride just so the pain can be tolerable while having fun with the guys. Even after the day is over, I'm still hurting regardless what I take, but I'm willing to put up with it because riding is my escape, my passion. Pain is a never ending unfortunately; I'm sure it's the same with you. One day I'll get my surgery done.

Sorry to hear about all this man. If I can sell my slow L2, consider your bike mine!:fact

For those of you that don't know this bike, this is the real deal!! This price is an absolute steal. Hope the bike goes to someone that appreciates a work of art!!

Take care brother!!:cheers

Wow, so sad to hear you guys with all the back trouble. I thought I had it bad with a chronic SI joint from excessive scar tissue. However if I look after my diet and don't abuse it physically I hardly notice it.

I've had two minor medial meniscus tear repairs to the anterior horn last 10%. My right medial meniscus has frayed a bit after the repair. That was my fear. So I have a little pain in the right knee from time to time.

I appreciate much more now being still able to ride my sports bikes.

OG, I'd definitely be kicking those tyres if you lived on the Island I live on.

Seems nobody wants a great bike at fair price. Forget about Craigslist as people will offer you $1800 for your $10,000 bike and then argue with you when you say no thanks

I scanned local classifieds up here just now. Your bike is a steal. Cheapest one I found was $9K but higher miles and nothing special. With that tasteful work, full akra etc... I wish I had the cash burning a hole in my pocket. Even with the USD exchange, it would still be a good deal. :drool

It'll be gone before I have the funds, sadly.

Give ebay a shot? They charge a flat fee (I think $120) for vehicles and the buyer pays shipping.....I sold my Trailblazer SS to a guy in TX on eBay for $18k....id say your bike is rare with all the goodies and the low miles I think you'll sell it quick on the bay. Tons of exposure.

Edit: I saw you did it, it will sell I'm sure.
