Hmmm...Mod MSP more or buy a Bike?

[ForceFed]

Ok,here is the deal.
I have a bunch of money saved up and I have been wanting a bike for the last couple of years since I got rid of my last one.
So,should I continue to mod the MSP OR go ahead and purchase a bike over the winter while I can get a good deal on it and keep the MSP like it is.
I really would like to do both ,but I don't have the funds to have it all.
Hmmmm??????
I am stuck between a rock and a hard place!
I really do want a bike and I think it would be the wiser investment as I won't lose out on much money if any if I ever decide to sell it.The last bike I rode for a year and still made $200 when I sold it.If I mod the MSP ,the money invested will never be returned as we all know that modded cars are not worth the money invested.We all mod our cars for the enjoyment of it and never look to make money off of them.

WHAT WOULD YOU GUY'S DO?

[azian6er]

how much money?

Dood, your scysophrenic with that damn car. Get the voices down to just 3 or I ain't talking to you anymore

A bike is always gonna be cheaper to go faster.

So if going fast you really can't pass up the bang for the buck of a crotch rocket. Just becareful riding.

 

[Hypnotized]

If your buying a bike for speed then go for it. I dont care what anyone tells you, but a bike accelerates, handles and tops out faster than any car that most of us can afford. Depending on which bike your looking at, you can spend at least 3000 on something and be very happy or you can go and buy something fairly new and you can probably sell it for the same price if you ever need to. I have a Blue Yamaha R6 that is amazing. I cant compare a bike to a car ever. Im actually selling my bike to clean up some debt, but I know I will definatley get another one. Hope this helps, sorry so long.

I don't get what you are trying to say?
I have changed a few things on the car along thwe way but never have I gone off path.I did at one point want to get rid of the MSP but I have grown to love its little quirks and want to improve on it as much as I can.
The one major mod that would suffer if I bought a bike is my building a new motor for it.I won't begin a motor build up until someone reliably makes a stand alone that will work well on the pro or MSP for that matter because without it the car will never realize it's true potential.
BTW, I have had a couple of bikes and I have been riding since I was a kid.The last bike got sold for funds to do some mods on my last car.I have missed riding EVER since.The only time I get to ride now is when I can borrow a bike.
I truely do miss riding and I am not sure if I can go wo\ithout another summer.
But on the bright side,Income taxes will be right around the corner and I may get a good enough return to go ahead and build the motor anyhow.

Hey man,I am reasonable.
I won't argue with that!
I was just soo frustrated with the car that I didn't know what to do.
I obviously have gotten used to it's quirks and grown to love it,CLUNK and all!
The car has some serious potential it just needs to realized.
I think you can say that I have changed my tone a lot over the past couple of months.
It does help that I have the car pretty much mapped out the way I want it and day by day I am accumulating the parts for the ENTIRE build up.It will be a long process but well planned and worth it!

I am not a Yamaha fan BUT I was thinking along the lines of a ZX-6.I really am a Honda and Kaw fan.Neither have ever let me down.
Also,I would not be buying a brand new bike as it is too easy to trsh a bike worth that much money.A nice used bike for $3000-$4500 would be what I am looking to get.
Matt
R6 is a REALLY nice bike though.
BTW,Suzuki is NOT an option.Nice bike but I hate the way they ride.
