Re: What bike?
I've just replaced the letterbox in my front door, I can send you the old one if you need something to practice shitting through?

Re: What bike?
Just had a call from Rite Bike...
It has an MOT!!!!
He listed the work...
Two new tyres
New battery
New chain and sprockets
New pads front and rear
Carbs ultrasonically cleaned
All caliper seals replaced
Front caliper pistons replaced
New plugs
Clutch slaves seals replaced
Oil/filter
Logged 17.6 workshop hours.
It's going for a post MOT check up (I guess to make sure none of the bits they've replaced are falling off) and they're going to ring me when it's ready to pick up.
Shame I can't pick it up until the weekend!

If they aren't telling porkies then they've certainly done a good and thorough job for you.

Re: What bike?
I'm half tempted to ask them to deliver it to work, I could ride it home then get the wife to drop me off for the car... They'll charge £60 for delivery tho'

If it's £5000 or £5060 does it matter ?

Re: What bike?
If they can deliver it to your work, they can deliver to your home, stop being a tight wadge.
Or take the afternoon off work, its not as though you actually do anything.

I work proper hard I do, don't spend any time on the tinternet at all.
They are sticklers here for giving adequate notice for holidays. I need to give a full week.
Rite Bike have just this second called... it's ready to go!
Also... I'd have to tax it three days before the end of the month, that would really upset my Yorkshire genes.

Re: What bike?
It's only two days to the end of the month, but if it was at yours you could sit on it and make brum brum noises.
Get it delivered, someone who works there might be able to do it on their way home.

Re: What bike?
Nope, I'm going to go pick it up at the weekend. Have a good look around it in my own time at their premises, make sure every thing is correct before doing the cash transfer and hitting the open road.
I'll get to race the wife home in her Aygo.

Re: What bike?
That's far too sensible, that's not how you buy a GSXR1100, buying a GSXR1100 is a bit like making love to a large women, you turn up full of hope, looking forward to caressing her ample curves......

I'm quite excited.
Here's a reminder why it was worth the wait!
