Foiled!

Last year, in March or April, after doing some research, I'd decided to replace my little Honda 250 by buying a Burgie 400. I put together some money for the purchase. I was just beginning to talk to a couple of dealers when the wife's car died - hard. So, instead of buying a new bike, the money went for a replacement car. Arg.

I hunkered down and waited for my next opportunity - which came recently with a pretty good bonus check from my employer.

So after work on Monday, I rode down to Del Amo Motorsports in Redondo Beach, check book in hand, to (finally) buy a 400, their last one in stock, only to find out that someone had beat me to it the day before.

Arg!

I refuse to give up or give in! So now I'm waiting for the dealer to cast about to see if they can come up with another one. I'm giving them until tomorrow, then I'm gonna start shopping other dealers. Wish me luck.
