Same here, not into the bars and drinking. The groups I used to ride with were only concerned with where the next bar was, I would rather ride. Sure frees up a lot of money to play with and I damn sure don't miss hangovers lol.

I'm too skeered to total up everything I've spent on my bikes over the years.

I could probably own a full blown recording studio for what I've sunk into rides.

Why put a cost on anything? As long as you're able to put your money where it belongs everything else will fall in-line... It's when you start to idolize and forgot about the important things is when you get into trouble...

Enjoy the ride...

Just looked at my file and it's about 3 inches thick. Takes too much time to add it up so I'll just figure that it's about $10K per inch.

Now the real question here is...... HTF do you take a five day vacation to Hawaii for $835.00?

I have records for pretty much everything I've spent on mine but I'm not about to go through and total it up. Ignorance is bliss as they say.

I like mine to stand out in a crowd. It's the totally stock one. Well maybe just a little.
