  1. @ the local bike shop I used to work for, the owner had a killer remedy for those arrogant, tightwad types who wanted a full tune-up & service for the price of an oil change on their shagged bike  

    We'd give the thing a bath, fresh oil & then Armor-All the seat after topping off the tank with some racing fuel!  

    Those fools would think we're the Muts Nuts when they came back from a test ride  

    class... :lol:
  2. ..ok...

    only been back for in the saddle for 4/5 weeks after 15 years so please be gentle...

    .

    going up an incline nice curves.. decided to try the corner at little more speed than i should have....

    one of the moments where you realise this isn't going right, and you know the corners too tight...

    .

    split second thinking...'..i'm not going to make this ...f**k...what am i going to do....other voice in my head says take you f**king hand off the throttle tw*t....good idea i think in response...' as it happens there is a bay just after the apex of the corner....i manage to break and slowdown enough to make the bay.....i would have hit the kerb, dented my pride and scratched the bike..(was not going too fast, but too fast if you know what i mean...)

    .

    ..now....

    .

    there were some people on the other side of the road...they could see that i'd stopped in kind of a hurry...

    .

    .

    .

    .what would you do to make this look like i meant to pull up sharply????

    .

    .quickly ripped my glove off..

    .

    ripped open my leathers....

  3. ...i'm just one hell of a guy... :lol:

    .

    .forgot to mention 37 going on 12..into transmormers and scifi yes could be classed as a handsome geek i guess....oh...and modest....

    .

    and still trying to complete very slow righthand turns from stopped with out jamming my wrist between the handle bars and the tank and being unable to turn the throttle to bring her back up :roll: :lol::D

  4. ...all joking apart it feels so natural to be back on my bike....

    i have to be careful not to be complacent...but already love it...

    .

    bought some leathers ..but in my haste i said iwould not need the knee skiddy things.....but again it seems so natural to pull her, over drop my ass off a bit and just pop that knee down...hope that makes sense? ...is there anyway to add this creature comfort after if required?
