Buy the darn thing if you've got the money! Once you get the wheelies down pat, then you can work on your manuals and really impress the grandkids!
Do it!

(Byron, sorry about your balance. Must be like a pianist losing the use of a hand. Feel better soon!)

Speaking of big bucks and missed opportunities, I remember when swingbikes could be got for cheap. Seemed like everyone that I knew that bought one used it for a while, decided it was kind of dumb, and then abandoned it to the garage. 20 bucks (or a bag of pot) would have been top price. Now the clean ones are getting 4 figures. Oh well.
