For whatever reason you have to get rid of; either your bike or your S2k. What's it gonna be Bucky, and why?

 

If I had an S2000, I'd get rid of the bike, of course if I had the money to keep the S2000. Simply, the car's safer, more comfortable, more storage, and more luxurious.

 

IMO, it's a very personal decision, depending on your finances, needs (i.e. is the S2000 a toy or primary trans), etc.

My decision would prob. change w/ the wind direction, but today I'd say the S2000 would go...it would bring in roughly 3x the $ and would clear a lot more garage space. Both are toys, so practicality is not a consideration. Lastly, I tried selling my street bike, and it didn't work for long...I'm addicted past the point of no return.

Tomorrow, I might rationalize that the S2000 is more usable, practical, safe, etc. Hopefully I'll never have to decide between the two, although my insurance bill is a constant reminder that I'm paying a lot for these toys. (My agent gets ~$4K annually for vehicle and home ins.)

 

The S2k is my daily driver and I have no intention of riding the R6 to work in Dallas traffic, so the bike would go. But if they were both weekend toys... bye bye Honda.

I use the R6 to get to work and I have no intention of using the S2000 in London traffic. Whats the point? no fun

So it would have to be the S2000 that went. (I would probably get a 996 to replace it tho )

Not the Ducati. I replaced a 748s with the R6 and although the Ducati was great on fast roads it was shit on the tight country roads that I enjoy most so I wouldnt get another.

 

As long as is possible, I would continue riding the motorcycle.There is no substitute for the adrenaline rush recieved from a spirited ride on a bike.The skills needed to 'master`a bike, IMHO, are higher than a car drivers, therefore the rewards of the m/c rider are exponentially higher. It may also have something to do with the risk factor, I not sure, but there is no feeling like a corner well carved while leaned over. I just wish that Canada had the same tolerance for M/C that is accepted in the US and Europe, where, for example, lane splitting,etc is overlooked or accepted(riding the white line) The outright performance of a M/C is so astounding today, that I believe, they are a most definative performance bargain .HP to weight ratio, as well as fun factor versus cost factor.
In all truthfullness, we enjoy our S2000 a lot, but I think it would loose out if we had to decide between the two,.... I hope we never have to!

 

i dont have an s2k...but if i had to chose between s2k and bike...i still wouldnt have the car...but im sure it would be great to have both ....bikes are just dominant IMO
