I'd keep it my friend

[@paulbrown7560]

That wouldn't be you, our latest Ride magazine "High Mile Heroes"??

[@riderramblings]

Probably, I haven't seen it. I was asked to provide some information about my Deauville back in January by Ride Magazine.

[@paulbrown7560]

Mine's not even broken in yet. 2011 with 9,600 miles.

[@blearyview2254]

How much will a new bike cost you? Far more than the fix to get it through the MOT I would say. Fit a YSS shock and stick a couple of tyre on and it you will get at least another year out of it. If you are using it as a commuter then it a good fit.

[@LenScapoff]

Personally, given the options as you have presented them, I think it's a no-brainer, John; break it for parts. If sentiment were the governing consideration, you would eventually conclude that the only option was to keep it and sink more money into it, which would be, in my view, economic madness. Trust your business instinct.

[@riderramblings]

I am, as you probably gathered from the video, leaning towards Breaking her. The idea behind keeping her was to do "maintenance and how-to videos" which I haven't really done yet. A bit shy about appearing on camera as I'm not very photogenic!
I am still thinking about the maintenance videos idea so I shall give it some thought over the next couple of weeks before I make my decision.
