What a waste?
If the guy gets satisfaction out of just owning the bike and riding it very little, then it is not a waste in his book. If he can tie up over 60 thou in a motorcycle then he probably has enough money so that he doesnât care what any one else thinks anyway.

If he can afford it and wanted it, good for him. Much like the people that pay hundreds of thousands for cars, I may not get it, but if it makes them happy.

RE: When is enough ... enough?
When I bought my bike, it had 770 miles on it, and it was a year old. I paid much less than it would have cost new, and I love it. So, like stated above, think of it like this. One, he will start riding it, and come to appreciate what we do about riding, or two, he will sell it off (probally to one of us), and that new buyer will get a great deal, and hopefully ride it. I would love to own one, they are sweet. But, that would require that I actually start working hard, and I am just not up for that. LOL
