A Little History about the bike .Its a 2001 CBZ belonged to a friend of mine who dint use it much after he got married.. Sold it to me about March-April 2011 for about 12k. It had done about 28000km at that time .. I had to get a new tank for about 5k and a new set of tires as it was running on the original Dunlop Geo cruisers that came with the bike in 2001 .. another 3.5k... Well iv mostly learnt on this bike had quite a few falls on it.. nothing major its got all its parts for 10 years ago except for the above and a cd dawn head lamp and the small here and there with the falls... I quite enjoy the bike but iv been iching for a new bike... Im not a person who likes spending but i was wondering if it is "Worth" keeping this current cbz and doing her up.. Im interested in converting her to dc and replace the worn out plastics all the side panels. As far as i can tell the chassis looks to be in good condition . Also the engine has been losing compression.. the kick just goes down with ease when starting and quite often just cuts out in the middle of the road until warmed up completely.Once warm no issue are there with pickup as such.. It could be the valves or piston rings but I am not sure..

Now my question is it wort spending to do her up or get a new bike. Im not completely sure which new bike.Id ok with anything form a platina to a apache 180... Even the apache 180 gives better mileage than my cbz... i just get around 32-35 per liter

Hello
So I was talking to the previous owner... he was offered to buy it back once he is back in Mumbai ... which may be feb march next year(he is out on work )... He doesn't want me to sell it off to anyone else as it holds sentimental value to him.Im going to test ride some bikes...I want to try out the discover 150 as i herd its quite a comfortable bike.
