Title: Like a Bad Penny...
Post by: tomp on June 28, 2016, 03:45:48 PM
I came back..  Sold my '11 a few months back.  Realized all too quickly that I missed the bike too much, so I bought it back.  Glad it's in the garage again, and know that Steve's reflash will be on the to do list.   Thanks to those who wondered where I had gone.  I did miss the folks here, and am looking forward to joining in the hoopla once again.

Hopefully the in between owner didn't sell it back for more than what you got for it..  Glad to see you back.

I sold it to a dealer, that sold it back righteously.  Bought 16 bikes, 17 if you count this rebuy, over the past few decades from them, all but two from the same guy....  Found a 2011 Multistrada 1200 for a dirt cheap price, but decided I would rather have the Concours.  tp

Went and checked closer, and found that they had put a new front tire on too.  It had a new rear when I first bought it, and it still looks new.  Tire pressure monitors still work, too.  Off on Thursday, and barring no rain, I will get in some road time.  Something to look forward to, for a change.   tp
