With my last two bikes, a friend and in the other a family turned up and stayed with me which gave me comfort. They were clearly ready to ride it home (good buying signal). With the Ninja I'm not so sure - they seem to attract a badass crowd! How can that be?

when i sold the 12, the guy left his 12 year old son with me when he went for a test ride
and the keys to his xr6 turbo.
fair swap, he can keep his son though

Re: What do you do about test rides when you are selling a b
Some great advice thanks guys, I think one of the major selling points of the 9 is in the ride so I'd be glad to let someone test ride it, but I'll need to find a way to protect myself, but hopefully by the end of next week I'll have my replacement to follow them anyway...
