So two days ago I bought a '04 GASGAS FSE 450 Supermoto as shown in the picture below.
Its an absolutely pristine bike. It has everything already on it from the factory. Marzochi shocks, ohlins rear shock, FMF pipe (full with header) fuel injection, six speed, pilot tires, tag bars, brembo front break caliper and disc.
The thing is, I was really looking for a husky 450 supermoto but i couldnt find one for under 5k. I ended up spending 5500 on the GASGAS because it was in such good condition. It has only 600 miles on the bike. I was so happy until today... I really could have used that extra $1500 to buy a car.
The question is... Am I an idiot for buying this bike?
For some dumb reason I was looking on craigslist and I found a Husky 450 Supermoto with 2000 miles on it for $4500 or best offer.
I AM SO PISSED RIGHT NOW. That was the bike I wanted and it was the price I wanted to spend. Now I just spent 1500 more than i wanted to spend on a GASGAS (which before a couple weeks ago, and weeks of research I had never heard about)
AM I AN IDIOT? DID I MAKE A BAD CHOICE? I need some feedback. I have total buyers remorse over this. I am so worried that the GASGAS is going to crap out on me and its going to be impossible to fix and all that stuff.
Dont get me wrong the bike is in PERFECT shape. Its got 600 miles on it and it has so many extras. But I think I would much rather have the husky. Am I wrong for thinking this? How do they even compare? I just dont know. Im all stressed out about it.
I want some feedback. Whether it is positive or negative I need to hear it.
