ooooooh thats rather nice.


Thanks Rach, forgot about bikegirl, went to see a vfr last night, he needs to do a few bits on it and told him to let me know when he has.

Did you find you spent ages looking before buying your bike?
Is it just a girl thing? or do the BB boys have the same problem.

Na, I see a bike I like, I buy it, I ride it, I get bored of it, I spend ages considering the merits of seventeen other bikes with no physical similarity to the one I'm actually going to buy, then I buy something that catches my eye in a "ooh, shiny" style. No questions, no discussions...Done.
EFA wink

Ages thinking about which bike, then I generally buy the first one out of the box. Not conducive to financial harmony, but hey, its a toy.

Nope.

Walked into the dealer, that looks cool "how much is the deposit? Do you take mastercard?"

I bought my first bike on the way to get a Pizza (ZX6R) We found the pizza shop didn't open for another 10 minutes so we popped into Bournemouth Kawasaki and the rest was history.....
