Good advice. I faced the same problem with the M when I had it, and I think I had a mini revelation over the past few days trying to sort out what I should do with the bike. The revelation goes like this:
I like money and hate throwing it away
I like things to be original, if the original is good enough
I'm not going to keep this bike for forever.
So, this kinda lead me to the path that I'll probably fix the bike up, learn some important stuff about motorcycles on it and sell it for a profit when I upgrade. From what I'm expecting to spend, and from what I'm expecting to get out of the bike, I'll at least be able to get my moniez out of it, so at the very least its a no or low-cost educational experience.
Yes, I'd like to reach the track. Yes, I'd like to mod a bike. But I think what I'd rather do is buy an old 70's CB or something and turn it into a streetfighter/cafe racer, and have that platform as one that is specifically for modding, and nothing else. Of course, this means I'll ultimately end up with a pretty filled up garage but whatevs.
So I guess this thread needs to be retitled
