I asked the question over on hpsidecars.com (a high-performance sidecar site, where they're also quite generally knowledgable about sidecars in general). The overwhelming concensus was that my bike has lots of life left in it, and replacing the Goldwing with a "newer" one would be a fairly fruitless waste of time and money. Good enough for me.
The Goldwing hasn't been showing any signs of trouble. I was just looking at the odometer and thinking to myself, "jeez, I know these are sturdy bikes, but 75 thousand miles with a sidecar has got to be hard on a bike." Apparently, I'm underestimating the Goldwing.
Back to the regularly scheduled program.
I'm still not serious about selling the Z to get another Ninja 250, but the idea persists. I'm going to keep the Z for a year. If, in early September this year I'm still thinking seriously about trading it all in for a Ninja 250, I'll do it. As much as I can't stomach the crappy gas mileage on the Z, the potential of $1000-1500 depreciation over the course of a few months sits even less well. Was that English?
