The Sunday dilemma

[FSR-Si]

So i woke up this morning and thought to myself, f**k it, I'm gonna treat myself to a new ride, i think ive earned it as July was my worst month ever what with separating from the wife (although she's back now) and finding out ive got angina at 37 :cry: Although one good thing that happened is i lost 2 stone 2 in a week :shock:

So the dilemma i have is do i go retro still or break with tradition and go modern as this little Zaskar keeps catching my eye.

Ive still got my Bravado to drool over, the fsr is just an ornament, the Talera is the pub bike, so i'm trying to justify a new toy for two reasons.

1. Motivation to get out and ride and get fit enough to keep on top of the angina or i'm going to lose my hgv licence.
2. I haven't spent any money for a while and i have this urge to just blow a grand.

Opinions please

Clearly GT's are your 'thing'.

If I were lookng to spend a serious amount of dosh I would make it something special - get a Xixang.

Good luck with the angina mate - you don't need an excuse to get out and ride now.

Given what happened to you recently, if you fancy treating yourself a bike, I think you should do it as you only live once on this earth, end of the day it's you will be riding the bike and if it make you smile then go for it.

Good luck
