  1. Nope, it's definitely got to go. Annoyingly I had 2 offers on ebay, but a mate asked me for a look at it. By the time he eventually rocked up and decided it was too big for him, the offers had expired and the blokes had bought other bikes:mad:
     
  2. bummer. theirs a wee article about shit birds in practical sports-bikes this month don't sound to shit to me.

    I've decided to sell this stunning piece, but I want to give forum members the chance to buy before I put on fleabay.

    This item is a one off, buy I am willing to make more if there is a demand.

  15. bilge pump.
     
  16. I always make sure I have plenty of petrol Glidd to get me round the short run that I do.I suppose if I did get low I could pull into a petrol station and fall off against one of the pumps and ask someone to push me upright again.I can't manage to ride the MH900 now,which is a pity.The riding position is far to hard on the leg and neck.Will take it out though when I have been repaired.:upyeah:I have put a lowered right side footpeg on the bike I take out-it helps with the position of my right leg. :)

  17. Mervyn Here's an Idea for you, get yourself a little bike , something like a 125, so easy to ride and get on and off and move around. So instead of feeling daunted with the weight of your big bikes, you could still get out for a ride.

    I spent a week at this years T.T hooning around on a borrowed Yamaha 125, Thoroughly enjoyed every minute I was on it and watched as people were struggling to park and manoeuvre their larger bikes, whilst I effortlessly rode into much smaller parking spaces and put it onto the main stand with barely any effort.
    And because the speed limits are strictly policed, I found that with the exception of the unrestricted mountain section, I was able to stay with everyone else, by planning every move and maintaining speed into the corners.

    Give it a go mate, you will love it!
     
  18. Hi John.What a cracking idea.I will have a butchers at what you suggest.Sounds like a plan.:upyeah:

    Here's my little beauty, very kindly lent to me by The mother of Steve Hislop's kids. A truly superb little motorcycle and such fun to ride.
    I found that there is so much fun to be had riding a smaller bike to its full potential , than being stuck in traffic , overheating and getting frustrated because I couldn't get a move on, and when I scraped the foot pegs at the gooseneck in front of hundreds of spectators I felt as good as John McGuiness!
     
  20. And yet worth considerably more than yours...
