Because of what my own folks (specifically my mother) said. “If you want an FRS, you could always sell your Honda 919 and we’ll pay for the rest.” These moments were usually dismissed by me since I thought they were jokes.

She wasn’t kidding.

For the last hour or so, I’m struggling to consider firing up Craigslist without breaking down in tears, endlessly rock myself back and forth to placate myself and hugging my bike, patting and telling her “everything is going to be okay..”

Still... FRS....

Have you considered a frs where the top comes off?

An NC Miata might help your life.

Sound proposal, but... Wouldn't I get the same experience on my bike..?

The cool thing about bikes is that if you sell them, you can always buy them back later for less.

I want to convince myself of that idea too until I found out the 919 wasn't made in high numbers.

have they started appreciating in value? if not, there’s enough of them out there to satisfy demand.

A similar 919 with same paint but some modifications was posted for $4250. KBB is at $4,065 (Stock.)

... Ergh, might as well sell it.

You know you can get a used FRS for 18k, right?

After driving a few friends around they have all said there is more exposure in the NB Vs a motorcycle.

If you’re in Eugene let’s go! Otherwise I’m sure you can where ever you are.

A bit over budget, but it could be transferred.

My point is, they are out there, especially if you are willing to ship it or drive.
