The abandonment is a last-ditch effort. There are literally 1000s of bikes out there for near nothing. Craigslist is a motorcycle's dream website
with many great classic bikes within reach of everyone. With cheap
bikes for the taking, Yeah, I'll just buy another one that is far more
cost-effective than wasting your time and expense stranded on your
own time.

Hotels are $90+, 3 meals are $35/day, and rental car is $35/day
plus gas. Average $175/day x 3-days plus tow plus airfare plus
incidentals = more than I paid for the bike. Best to just walk away
if irrepairable within 8 hours.

It is very rare that I purchase any bike more than $1000. I get free
bikes, bikes for near nothing, and bikes that are just a free-for-all.

Am I doing something wrong? Nobody is giving me bikes for free or near free! Where do I sign up?

Ha...lol. It is all true. In fact, there are three (3) bikes for free which
are my ideal bikes to own. The infamous 84-86 Honda Nighthawk CB700SC.

One of the greatest bulletproof bikes of the 80s. These are all parts
bikes, but he wants to give them all to me for free. I don't have the
space anymore. I already have the 84 Nighthawk, and it is the best
bike I've ever owned.

All of my Suzuki GSs are all down, including a Yamaha FJ, but the Nighthawk keeps running and running like there was no tomorrow.
One of the best bikes ever, and truly remarkable engineering workhorse
of its time. Bikes today do not have the features of this bike that
sets everyone apart.
