  1. I have had most of a bike dropped off in bits a 1980 Gs .
    It belonged to my ex boyfriend of 20 years ago. I had a soft spot for the bike .
    He has emigrated to OZ but was back here.
    It was very strange after not seeing him for 20years.
    It was quite sad .. And awkward.
    Especially knowing your never see them again... Not that I need too.
    He knew I had a soft spot for the bike.
    I just have an engine to collect..
    It would be lovely to restore.
     
  2. Happy birthday Fig :)

  6. I issued a couple of proposals, rang a few people up and issued an Italian press release.

  13. A bit slow for this one, as I've been mulling over for a bit, but doesn't the swept area on those discs look a bit, erm, inadequate, 470four? Did the "not me" mess with the brakes at all?

  16. A hair cut for a "happy ending"? How strange. :wink:
     
  17. Spent 4 hours trying to remove the swing arm bolt on the 748, plenty of penetrating oil, heat and big hammer, result, cleaned up and plenty of grease and back together.

  18. Bought 12 months tax for the bike online. Went window shopping in Huddersfield. Went to see my olds up north for lunch. Came home. Now laid on the sofa, farting about on here. :upyeah:
     
  19. A mate got turfed out by his missus, so we met up for a beer, the last thing I needed after last week's drunken lurch round Barcelona. He may well feel better now, but I feel like I've been trampled by elephants:frown:

    I'm getting too old for this game.
     
  20. Fitted the baffles in my newly fitted termis just to see what difference they make-more socially acceptable but not as nice as without them!
    Took the covers off my old 750 Triton so I could just look at it.Not likely to ever ride it again but do I really want to sell it?I get far to attached to my bikes methinks!
