Have to do it.... 
If anyone knows of someone looking for a great bike let me know.
My brother in-law is going into surgery Monday and has a 50-50 chance. (Chemo and bone marrow transplant)
I have somehow agreed to take care of his 3 kids and my own 3 for about a year until he gets out and has the stamina.
I just finished trading in my truck today for an Excursion diesel and now the bike has got to go
to be able to pay off the new loan on the truck,  going broke quick and need some help.
Lots of goodies on the bike
Custom seat
Passenger backrest
Kury hypercharger
V&H bigshots
aeromach pull back risers 6" or 8" not sure which ones they are but you can see in picture
drag specialties tach
chrome tank mount clock
kury mirrors with turn signals
New front Metz and rear darkside
pair valve removal & desmog with bigrly and bones blockoff plates
just changed spark plugs, oil, and final drive within the last 500 miles

Should be the fastest VTX out there but never had a chance to take on Becca at the track so I will give her the cudo's

everything is negotiable

I will be back in about a year, but for now my priorities have changed

[RedDragon]

Sorry to hear Skippy. Hope everything goes good with your brother in law.

[j1mmyj4m]

Wow...

I hope everything goes well and he recovers asap.  Keep us updated.

[Crewsn]

bikes come and go and can be replaced, not true for family.
I hope your bro-in-law has a quick and speedy recovery and props to you for taking on the responsiblity of the children.
good luck on the bike sale.

+1!  Very noble of you, Skip!      Good luck!

[ViciousNoob]

Skippy, you will be blessed for your noble gesture. Karma is a Buck Rogers (as many people know or will know in the near future), but it also works the other way. Good things happen to good people.

You will be in my prayers. When this is done, you will have the bike of your dreams. Count on it, because you DESERVE it.

thanks folks I really appreciate the replies and the folks that have seen my bike know it pretty well
Can't miss it unless you blinked when I passed you
I know I will have another bike soon just don't know how soon and of course it will be another VTX
Once this is all done with the truck goes up for sale (maybe) and the next bike comes home.

If anyone knows of someone looking for a bike and wants to deal let me know

[VTXLady53]

Sorry to hear this......Prayers on their way.

Hope your brother gets better soon.

[Boogie]

You are a saint, brother,
  You guy's are in our prayers.

reduced to $8000

Ready to sell
make me an offer

[MRVTX]

I applaud you also, and pray for your family during this time.  I hope you get this sold quickly...someone is hitting the jackpot, for sure.  I've run against this bike...I know how fast it is! 

[skipppy75]

someone should have told me I didn't put up pictures??  LOL 
Just added them

[Swampfox]

        Skipppy I wish the best for you and your brother-in law.   I pray Oh why do I pray?

                                            Why should we pray?
Prayer unleashes Gods's power so that he is able to work in our behalf. Prayer opens the channels of God's blessing. Prayer is how God accomplishes the things that he wants to see happen in our lives. Prayer opens new doors of opportunity for God to move. In fact you can view prayer like a door. You are on one side of a closed door and on the other side is God. But standing with God is all this incredible and unimaginable power. When you pray, it is you turning that doorknob and swinging that door wide open. For it is at that moment when all that power can step through that doorway and work for God's good, and for your good.

                                                                  you are a good father
                                                                                                God's will and your skills
                                                                                                                                Git R done

Skippy,

I wish you and your family the best.  Good luck with selling the bike and I hope you will be back in the saddle soon.

If I know of anyone looking for a nice bike, I will send them your direction.

BTW, where did you get that clock you have mounted on the tank chrome?  I have been looking for a clock that I like but have not found one that is what I want.  That one looks cool.   

Again, best wishes and prayers to you and your family.

Regards,

David

It came with the bike
I bought the bike used with 2054 miles in Missouri in August last year
I will see if I can find the paper that says what it is
