Thanks for the feedback everyone. I’ve kept the bike for all these years knowing that I won’t get much for it. I like the idea of getting my money’s worth out of. I bought it for $6,200 way back in 1998. Now it just gets in the way of my other garage stuff and sits. I think it knows I’m going to let her go as when I ran it two days ago a float stuck open. I’ll end up pulling the carbs and boiling them out in my ultrasonic cleaner then rebuilding. Done that enough times now. Biggest pain is getting the throttle cables back on. Sounds like I’d be doing OK if I get $1,500 out of it. Once the kids are out of school maybe I’ll pick up another ride as I’m sure I’ll have regrets.

I won't mention the basement full of spare parts Ihave in the basement, nearly enough to build another, sans engine andframe. I also have a lifelong friend who has lusted after it for a longtime and I'd probably give it to him rather than get insulted at its value,like Ralph did.So, it will likely stay in the garage with my old Vulcan 1600 and I'll endup letting my Ducati Multistrada go. It's a wonderful, fast and fun biketo ride, but a little too tall and not one I would ever trust to ride toAlaska as I did more than once on the GPZ. When I retire in three moreyears (no thanks to my ex) I want to ride to Alaska again, except fromNorth Carolina instead of Denver, I'll look at a smaller touring bike forthat trip. When I'm too old to comfortably ride, I'll go get a CanAm orjust enjoy having the top off of my Corvette, I hope that day never comes,but it probably will. Meanwhile, I am planning to ride the GPZ to Daytonafor bike week next spring, which would add three more states to my 24visited so far.
