NBT: Sexy red beast has been bought and heading my way!

Post by Taipan »

75 summers right? Not too many left for me, so I went for it. Different bike, its 2018, bog standard one with only 4k miles on. But once i'd seen that one the other day, I just had to have one. Can't remember a bike lighting me up so much! :wub: Dunno if I can even ride it, but I'll push through. Anyone want to buy a Tmax? :lol:

I say,Jolly good show Tarquin . 8-)

I hope you find a way to bash your body to fit in a tolerable manner.

Being fired up and gagging to own a bike is a feeling a lot of us have forgotten. Years ago,I remember having difficulty sleeping the night before and feeling physically sick leading up to pick up time.

Wasnt any way I could get one as the bike is in Cheshire! I've neve researched a bike so much, so I do know all the things about it that will piss me off, but I also know the ways round them and what to get done etc. I've never been so well informed on a bike I'm buying. I reckon its a keeper and make no mistake! :thumbup:

When I was racing a Ducati the wife kept buying kosher Ducati casual gear to wear out and about, like it was a fashion brand.

So buy the wife some Ducati t-shirts, it's not a bike, it's a lifestyle!
