Practical vs fun vs expense

[Gazdaman]

I've got a bit of a dilemna.

I'm soon to have 3 bikes.

My MZ ETZ 250, My XJ600 and a TZR250 which arrives tomorrow.

Now do I:

a) race the MZ, keep the XJ, sell the TZR on for profit
b) race the MZ, keep the TZR as my main bike, sell the XJ on for profit.
c) race the TZR, keep the XJ, sell the MZ on for profit
d) race the TZR, keep the MZ, sell the XJ (don't like the sound of that one)

Plus points for the MZ:
Cheap, economical, but I do want this one to race I think, as it'd be cheaper to race that than the TZR. Against the MZ is that it's ugly and not particularly fun on the road.

Plus points for the XJ:
I like it, it's fairly economical, I enjoy riding it, I can ride it hard. But it's not as pretty as the TZR, but then the TZR wouldn't make a good everyday bike, poor mpg etc.

Plus points for the TZR:
It's gorgeous! has about 50bhp, so if I didn't restrict it, I'd have a nice fun bike.

I just don't know what to do. Keeping all 3 bikes would leave me quite strapped for cash.

Which should I race, which should I keep, and which should I sell?

First person to say I should race the XJ gets a slap.

Race the XJ.

Go on, slap my ass. Slap it good.

You would say that!

I will take the XJ on a trackday one day, and watch peoples faces as I pass them mid corner. (only to get obliterated on the straight, but that's another matter)

Your first option makes the most sense. Though why buy the TZR only to sell it on straight away? I'd say get your money's worth out of it in terms of fun first.
