...and ill give you £250 for the Fizzy.........deal?

Nice pics from Oulton Mr...how did you rate the beemer?

Noted re the straps Hman, its one of those things I do once in a blue moon, never had any drams before.

However ive just come back home after viewing it in the day light for the first time , tweaked the handlebars back up, they where so loose I wouldnt have been surprised to see the first wheelie have them rotate around in my hands.

Anyway, its not as bad as I thought it may be, the tanks the worse, side panel has a small nick in the graphic but overall, its looking good....bloody good..a lot of the items that are hard to find and show signs of wear are all there and in excellent condition, the clock surrounds for example.














I'll swap you for the Fizzy!

The BMW is great, it's the fastest thing I've ridden, handles and brakes like you wouldn't beleive. I prefer the Panigale though.

That is just fantastic!! Crying shame about the mishap in the van, but as you say, it's only money, and it'll all come right.
Excellent work on getting such a gem.

I know some people don't like the HDR look, but it's the only way to show a black bike.

God! It's terrible haha.

The indicators look like they have no place, and stick out so much.

Finally got round to changing my tyres



Having strange thoughts about painting the bike nato green, not sure if it will just look a bit crap though.
