From a high tech machine to a tractor! I always wanted a BMW, my dream bike for quite a few years. Finally got one and it was everything I had hoped for. Loads and loads of miles all over the UK and apart from a new battery totally reliable.
As life progressed the transport requirements changed, disco kit, going out with your mates, girls, not getting your butt frozen off in winter I was beginning to use a car more and more and only use the bike at weekends if at all.
When Peugeot launched the 205 I had to have one, the only way to afford one was to part exchange the bike. The plan was to pay for the car and then get another bike in the future, again life gets n the way, things change and I’ve never had another bike, my biking days were over.
As my dream bike the BMW was a good one to finish on.
