So,you are keeping it. Good man, if you sold your pride and joy you would miss it forever. At least now it will be there to look at when you open the garage and on a good day you can pull it out for a bit of pampering.  :thumb:

They don't even want to steal it from my drive where it sits since 2017, used everyday though. I don't have garage. For a difference, my neighbour opposite street got his bike stolen about year ago

Nobody wants Strom, looks like I am convicted to have it
:grin:

Regarding my health it is my knees which are killing me. I can still ride but it is only getting worse...

I am happy to say that my knees improved and they are not too bad now. Almost no pain. Glucosamine tablets helped a lot. I am happy that I didn't have chance to sell the bike :) It will stay with me for another while.
