Well, actually I do know how. Sold some stuff, that's how. Since I'm moving into a tiny 1 bedroom apartment for my next feat in this thing we call life (yeah, I'm a little bit bitter this week about it... can you tell??), I won't have room for such novelty items like a kitchen table and chairs, or a futon that was in my bedroom. I'm looking with an evil eye at some guitars and other things, but those give me hope and a purpose and well, chicks dig em, so they stay. For now.
The guitars. The chicks, well, that's another story...
I also met up with another Virago owner in town, who came over to look at a few items I have in my discarded pile. He seems to really like his Virago just as it came from the factory 30-some years ago, which is all well and good. A very nice guy, too, so I threw in a bunch of other things that I definitely won't be using and maybe he can, so karma and all that- I could use all the good parts of that right now, too.
Anyway, a few bucks here and a few more bucks there, and I was able to make the deal. Having the rear sets on the way means one step closer to successfully launching this thing, so feeling good about that. The rest will still be a tall order, but once these moves (my son's off to college again, and my smaller and cozier one) gets wrapped up, I can settle down and hunker down and, well, get down on it and start saving those nickels once again.
There's a few more things from that discarded pile I should throw up on eBay and see if I can get a few coins for them. They aren't doing me any favors laying around, and honestly don't have the space to store them anyway.
Yeah, it's a little bit that bad. Little bit crowded...
But who knows, maybe this bike will have to end up in the living room while I finish working on her.
It's happened before...
