Should I sell my car and keep my bike?

I have two vehicles; a 1993 Ford Probe GT in great condition with only 57,500 original miles on it. And I just got a 1998 Yamaha FZR600 with 23,400 miles I've had the bike for a little over a week and its off to a bad start it has mechanical problems and my friend dropped it on the left side during a test drive ruining the whole appearance of the whole bike. So now my bike has mechanical and cosmetic issues. But i like motorcycles way more than cars but how would I get by if its raining or snowing? I like my car it has been very dependable for the last two and a half years that I had it, but its behind on maintenance, its going to need brakes, oil change, clutch, struts. I am thinking if I sell my car I would get my beat up bike like new again and I'll have left over money for first month's rent. But I honestly don't want to sell my car but I can't have both I gotta choose one. So what do you all think?car or street bike?
 
I'd go with the car for sure. It's a whole lot safer, you have more room for people, more room for whatever, and like you said... weather issues. If your car is giving you too much trouble, you could maybe upgrade to a better car with the money you get from selling your bike.
 
put you bike on hold and get your car fixed and in a month or so once you get your car up to par then you move onto your bike and fix it up.dont sell any of your things because if you wait you can keep them all if you really think about it.
 
Me - I keep my bike, always.
But, I'm in a different situation.
You should dump the problem bike and keep the reliable car.
For now, at least.

Later, when you don't have to worry about rent (first, last, or otherwise) get yourself another bike.
