Neil....Very sorry that you are having to do this.....I'm sure many of us have been in a similar situation.... I know I have, and only just managed to keep the 851.

Hope everything turns out allright in the end.

Yeah it's a bl**dy awful feeling - I now know what other people have gone through when they've posted the 'must sell' ad, my little Prilla is being picked up this afternoon - crying shame as it was a little rocket ship and humbled many a big bike on track days.
The big Prilla has a couple of people coming to view at the weekend.
I had another discussion with the boss last night and if I can get shot of the big Prilla and the bundle of spares that you (if your'e like me !) pick up and hoard 'just in case' then I might get to keep the Ducati, so that's what I'm pushing for now.
I just can't imagine not having a bike - it would be the 1st time since I was a 7 year old kid - gulp...

i feel so sorry for you! there is no way i could understand the feeling of letting go of what has undoubtably been a labour of love. i hope your circumstances improve and you are able to hang on to your bike.
cheers mate,
paul.

Sorry to hear this mate but Heaven is no help when the devil vomits in your cash flow!! Who know's it may take some time to sell and if the other two bike go maybe things may level out. Anyway I'm so gutted for you.

have reached a deal with the good lady - I can keep the bike but now need to shift my RSV Factory (little RS has already gone). Of these 2 bikes I get to keep the one I wanted, I just need to limit the riding for a wee while.
All smiles again, but it was a close run thing...

Glad to hear the good news Neil , Would have been a crying shame to sell the bike after all that hard work .
