View Full Version : Rosey's home!

YEEHAA!
Finally managed to get up the road this arvo and unload some cash that has been GAGGING to be spent!
And lo!
Daisy has been usurped - there is a new SHINY girl living in my garage, in the shape of a '95 Kawasaki ZZR 250!
Gave the guy at the yard some money, sent a few texts, shot home to get my get my gear and dump the cage, and on my arrival was greeted by the one and only Gijoe1313 with the mighty Zeocen joining us shortly after.
After a short drool fest, we were off to gas up, then had a quick squirt out to Maraetai.
She rides like a dream, pre-empts the corners, and for the first time ever, I actually enjoyed riding, instead of praying to the 2 wheel gods, and wondering if death hurts, as Daisy gave me cause to do.
So, waiting a txt from a certain ricer, then it's off with Daisy to her new home.
Goodbye Daisy - HELLO ROSEY!

Congrats Mate. Look forward to riding with you real soon. Problem is, I probably won't be able to pick you out of a crowd of bikers anymore.

Congrats on the new arrival, she's a beaut. Glad to hear you're enjoying your new bike already. Looking forward to seeing you on your new shiny bike. At least Daisy's gone to a good home, Gijoe1313 will love and cherish her - as you will do Rosey.

It really is a stunning bike, the handling is on a completely different level, I couldn't believe it.... but you missed out one important factor.
The coolest feature ever, the cellphone holder!

Cheers - of course this means that I must resign forthwith from the 2 strokers newbie club, however as my membership is transferable, J is already planning for the next AGM.

I still think your idea of rounding it out and making it a drink holder is pretty damn nifty!

Funny ya mention that...she's had such a good time pootling down to Hamilway, I woke up this morning and she had some wet patches beneath her! :lol:
But I loves her I does, I luvvers her like I love my little ol'Hornet! :love: I will polish her, and hug her and retouch her paint and remove the rust and fix the seat and do her fork seals and tighten her loose bits and bling her...
Oh yes, I will... :whistle:
Anyhows, been looking on ebay and will also be buying a Tamiya kitset of her and making it up exactly like Daisy too! (obsessed? Moi? Really!? Never! :innocent: ) ... Today, I will pootle up Northways ... need to do 1000kms before the end of this week on Daisy! :yes:

Hi there Ian!
Don't mind the troglodytes like Zeocen, he's relatively harmless - though he does have a penchant for threatening to kick over any bike he feels might be 'better' than his.
Which of course is everything, including the pedaled variety.
Hope to see more of ya around, and keep an eye out for upcoming events, in the Events section, and also plastered all over the calendar (link up top).
Enjoy your shiny new toy - I'm loving mine! :D

And the band played on...
Daisy, Natalie & Rosy ... starting to sound like quite an inaugural menage a trois in the offering! :scratch: Oh, but it brings a sentimental tear to my eyes :weep: When I think of how Daisy was left to find her way in this cruel, cruel world of heartless bikers... in fact... hum with me now, to the refrains of ...
Daisy a Day
He remembers the first time he met her
He remembers the first thing she said
He remembers the first time he held her
And the night that she came to his bed
He remembers her sweet way of singin'
Honey has somethin' gone wrong
He remembers the fun and the teasin'
And the reason he wrote her this song
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
They would walk down the street in the evenin'
And for years I would see them go by
And their love that was more than the clothes that they wore
Could be seen in the gleam of their eye
As a kid they would take me for candy
And I loved to go taggin' along
We'd hold hands while we walked to the corner
And the old man would sing her his song
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
Now he walks down the street in the evenin'
And he stops by the old candy store
And I somehow believe he's believin'
He's holdin' her hand like before
For he feels all her love walkin' with him
And he smiles at the things she might say
Then the old man walks up to the hilltop
And gives her a daisy a day
I'll give you a daisy a day dear
I'll give you a daisy a day
I'll love you until the rivers run still
And the four winds we know blow away
Still with me? Then if you must, if you really really must - if you want to be my lover, then you need to get on with my friends ...

My god, you make me sound so cruel... so callous!
Let us not forget that Daisy was found a home WELL before Rosey was re-located to fill the garage void.
Looking at the farewell shot last night, I must confess I almost felt a bit of a twang... but it could just be the cold I have at the moment... :sick:

And it's comments like that young Donor me lad that gets you that "cruel...so callous!" moniker :slap:
The only reason you wanted to foist Daisy out early was you didn't want to get into a slanging match between Daisy and Rosy, methinks it was only self-preservation mode here!
"Hmmm...so Daisy ... I will have to move you out so Rosy can ....."

Of course, I could only do this if Daisy was going to be there... *cough*

I managed to find a few phillips heads to get the job done, although I did make the bulb a bit too high I fixed it at the WOF shop and got it bang on, now I can see in the dark again!
Although if you still want the fixit party, I can kick your bike over and we can try fix it? :sunny:
