Shopping ... Officially!

#1 Post by k1w1boy » Wed Jul 13, 2011 9:33 pm

... 3 weeks of bus-bound purgatory has made up my mind to shop for another Falco, one to treat more respectfully. Still not sure to do with the blue, sprag-dead one. Mechanically minded as a piece of cheese I won't part-it, and with its high mileage and crashed/dropped/fallen-over/pushed-over history I'm realistic about its resale value. Looking to spend up to 3k on the replacement -by the end of august- sales pitches and suggestions welcome :smt006

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

And how much are you looking for it? I'm looking for a project (I'm buying the wife a new house and in return she says I can have another bike for my new garage!).

Hey Paul, long time no hear!

I think you've set the bar a bit high with buying a house to justify a new bike, most of us would stretch to a meal and new handbag.

And you call yourself a northerner, you should be ashamed, Pierre will be spinning in his pit, assuming he's still alive!

Ha ha, technically I'll be a southerner soon (heading down toward her folks in Stamford - better for me with work too) so I deserve the abuse.
