Barbers near Rawson Market in Bratfut used to have a stack of bash mags for his customers. I think when he was trained he misheard and thought it was something for the weak end. :(

£302? Blimey. :shock:

I still have my hairdo but I've not entered a barbershop since 1992.
My bike insurance quotes bottomed out in my late 30s and seems to have gone up slightly ever since (although I have moved countries and presumably lost a bunch of NCB in the meantime)

Get the haircut and then cancel the policy within the 14 day cooling off period. Result.

Where do you find a barber with that price?
Oop Norf. Some places round there are still struggling with decimalisation…

^ what he said.

As a new rider, anything under £500 is a win I reckon 👍

And nobody ever regretted buying a new bike. Do it!!! 😇😎

I have decided not to buy this bike now and is advertised in the forsale section.
