G,
if you sell it before you have fixed to suit you riding it you will have to live with it. I am not kidding. I did that with a car once some 45 years ago. The next owner got it running right and painted it and I kicked myself for giving up on it ever since.

Yeah i know about that but its just a pain when you've gotta spend more times fixing it than being able to ride it to get it set up for me to like it fully.

Everything comes on time just may not suit your time is all.
All "projects" take time my last one was started 7 years ago to stop me going stir crazy from being house bound. The bike is still in our first floor lounge and being worked on albeit VERY slowly.
As my wife reads this forum, you are a saint my dear for putting up with my therapy (what she calls my bike ) she calls it other names :swear :swear but this a family space so we will NOT go there LoL

Dont give up. You say not being able to ride. I went 2 years with out a bike. 3 weeks ago I bought a 1996FZR600 and 2 weeks ago a truck hits me so there again im down and out with a broken collar bone and a busted bike but I haven't givin up yet. Last two days I've striped it and ordered most of the parts. Theres always hope in the passions you love. So dont give up. I HAVENT !!!
