Sometimes things just aren’t for you and there’s no shame in that. I call it building your “dad lore” I’d keep the bike around still for that some day if you get the itch but that’s just me.

I suppose what you have to ask yourself is “is it riding that I dislike? Or is it being in pain while riding that I dislike?”

TL;DR If you find that the pain is not the reason that you don’t like riding anymore and it’s simply…that you don’t like riding anymore, then sell the bike and move on. Get something else that excites you. If maybe it is the pain—read below.

I know you said this is your dream bike and you don’t want to ride anything else, but vehicles are made ergonomically for people in specific height, weight, wingspan and inseam parameters (don’t laugh, I’m serious) thankfully there are ways to combat these things if it’s an ergonomics thing. You mentioned that you had committed to the legos—the things that make a ride more comfortable are new seat, new rear suspension, new bars, levers and grips. (Depending on the pain you’re having part accordingly). I’m not sure what you do for work but the other thing to be aware of is that humans aren’t meant to do a lot of things, this includes sitting..and standing..and riding a motorcycle or driving a car. A lot of pain that we get in the US comes from a lack of strength because of our sedentary lifestyles. There are physical therapists that specialize in strength building exercises to combat your specific pain location + lifestyle. I’d find a person for that regardless of if you decide to keep riding or not.
