History shows I'm partial to change every couple of years, but I've no intention of ever selling any of my current stable.

I generally keep mine until they get written off

I'm thinking of flogging mine, and I've had it 6 months from brand new.

But then again I've got a screw loose..... Mr. Green

About a year, i used my gradual increasing no claims in order to afford to increase my bikes cc (insurance always the limiting factor)

Now I have an RR I think i will still change it this year as change is always good and there are that many types of bikes out there to experience that sticking with one is a bit sad... Razz

Selling my Gixxer tomorrow. I've had it about 7 months, 5000 miles. I normally keep a bike all the time it's roadworthy, but this one has to go to pay for finishing my turbo bike.

Once I have spilt blood over a bike I now keep it for life. I have not blead over the Armstrong yet. Mr. Green
