I guess you really enjoyed "destroying oil and blowing up engines"?

I've ridden all sorts of bikes, ranging from a CG125 to a GSXR1000, an R1, a FireBlade. Although, I've not ridden a ZX10R or a S1000RR.
The most fun bikes for me are still those that make approximately 50-120bhp. More than that and you start to feel like you can't use the power, and you have to hold back on that right wrist. This is why I have the Street Triple, Buell, KR1S and CBR600RR. The CBR is purely a track bike (although it is road legal) and it's great for what I use it for, but I'd still rather ride the Street Triple on the road (similar weight, dynoed at 107bhp).
I'd like to try a BMW S1000R sport but I think I'll end up not wanting the extra power so I don't think I'll end up taking the plunge.
The one caveat to that is for commuting when the ULEZ expands I will need to swap the VFR for something else, and I'm thinking either Z1000SX or GSX-S1000F as I need wind protection, range and comfort but I still want something fun. I don't really fancy a BMWF800GT or something like that, and so an excuse to get 150bhp+ is not needed. They aren't the best looking, and my sportsbike sensibilities are slightly harmed by them, but seeng as I really like the VFR for commuting right now it would seem a logical move.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another. |

| Quote: | Voluntary Termination rights mean that as long as you have paid more than half of the balance due, including interest and charges owed – or make up the difference to that 50% – you can return the vehicle to the finance company. This works in a similar way for Hire Purchase schemes.
Be aware, however, that you won’t get anything back if you’ve paid more than 50% of the total due.
If the car is worth more than the remaining payments, you could be better off paying a settlement figure to buy the car and then selling it – provided you can access the funds to do this. |

You can pay off PCP finance at any time, the voluntary termination is about handing the vehicle back to simply stop making payments. This won't be the case as the OP has only had it for 4 months.
All OP needs to do is ring, ask for a settlement figure then either
1 - get a loan and pay of finance, sell bike, pay off loan (as said by someone else)
2 - advertise bike as clearly as possible, explaining that the finance will be settled when it's sold. This is done by the buyer once the seller as instructed the finance company to talk to the buyer. It relies no a degree of trust, but it must happen all the time with most vehicles now sold on finance (i'm sure this is that happens in a dealer at trade in too) |
My PCP contract on my car states the finance company (VW) will chase me for the cash and not repossess the car if I failed to pay. I called them to ask as I plan to sell and they told me I am the legal owner and can sell when I like but legally should make it clear to any new owner that the car is on PCP and will be paid off when sold. I asked if the new owner would have any worries about the car being taken back if I didn't pay and they said no, they would chase me not the car. |
