I'm sure the springer will re-emerge into the lineup, but will be nothing like the crossbones. My xbones is staying with me until there's nothing left of it. Plus my son says "dad can I have your bike when you die!!!"

I sadly might have to put mine down this week. Had a wreck Sunday and managed to torque the heck out of the front end to the point where it needs to be replaced. Couple that with some of the other damage, the estimate was well over $7500. So I get to wait and see if Progressive is going to total it, or pay up for repairs. I really don't want to see her go...


I was gonna put new bars on it this coming weekend too.

I plan on keeping my crossbones, and getting a second bike.

I got really lucky, I was literally on my way to sell my bones for financial reasons when my buddy called. I told him what I was doing he said hell no, I'll give you the money you were going to make from the sale and if you ever sell it you gotta give me the proceeds, he says you love that bike too much and won't be the same without it. I was floored, never take such a cool bike for granted you will regrets it when you lose that male itch we all have to move onto the next thing. Those impulsive thoughts fade, cool is forever. I am so lucky my wife can never ask me to sell my bike again.
