But I doubt you would get better than Olig's which is cheaper and has lots of toys plus you'd get more than that for yours elsewhere its a win win you know it makes sense :smt002
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I have seen that bike pictured before somewhere = the mesh on the fans and the aftermarket side stand....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

How Much ???? !!!!

You'd be hard-pressed to get that much for a low mileage late model .... or have things changed that much?

Too dear.

AVUSS in "Robbing Bast**ds" shocker huh?

Wouldn't entertain them. They used to be the local Priller dealer. My arse knows more about snipe shooting than they do about Aprilias.

HOW MUCH !? Both PX and forecourt price..

I think at that point i wouldve dropped the salesman on his arse with a broken nose. Especially with the proof of how much its 'worth' sat there on the forecourt.

Very silly of the salesman to come up with that figure. he shouldve just declined to value it.. better to lose the sale to a grumpy refused customer than blatently try to rip off a customer and have them walk away straight to their computer and chat with Aprilia RiderSite...

Nah - wouldn't have worried me .... by the time Tim wandered off, and then marched back carrying a stature-equalising-attack-platform (step-ladder), I might have had the time to prepare an effective defence - or wander off and put my feet up ....


..... I guess he probably chose his career appropriately ..... I'm not sure a career in the diplomatic service would have been a great success.




.... though I have a lot of sympathy with the proposed approach on this occasion

I can do diplomatic...

I'm actually quite good at it at times, believe it or not!

However diplomacy in a stealership? naah.
