This is why I don't even bother trying to have nice things.
Get a dirt cheap er5 or something, anything that might break if it falls/gets knocked over will cost like a fiver to replace and what it lacks in performance will be made up in you not having to give two craps about thrashing it around the place.

Same experience here, over a longer period of time though which helps a bit. That's why I can't bring myself to change bikes from the R80/7 and SH300 which are both ratty sleeper looks. I'd love to have something newer with bells and whistles but last time I did that it got nicked.
It's a shame that the only bikes that survive in London are the ones that no one else wants and are already cosmetically a mess. Basically what M_V said, give up having nice things on the street.

Thanks all for the kind words.
The issue of getting up and riding again isn't a confidence one. It's that no matter how well I treat my property and obey the rules, there's always some other cunt who ruins it.
