and then for only ten miles if that. Hell, I couldn't remember where the start button was when I started it last week to see if the new battery still had a charge. I think I will sell it.
What could be better than going on 60 yo on a BMW R1150R going on 60 mph? OK lets not get into that

Yep.....I understand your predicament, since somthing similar happened to me as a result of an overseas assignment. I ended selling not one but both my bikes since I wasn't going to get much used out of them.

Think of it this way......you will be providing someone else the opportunity to basque in the glory of enjoying your bike...... :cry: :cry:

Is there a reason why you havnt ridden it?
If you have a genuine reason to sell, then so be it.
I nride my bikes as much as I can, but then I dont have any reason not to.
My wife encourages me to get out as much as possible, to unwind from work.
Relieves the tension at home as well. :D
I am sure you will work out what to do.

If you joined a motorcycle interest group and social club all that declining enthusiasm would be reversed.

Sell it.
You're not riding it.
It's money just sitting there.
