Well, it was a mini-saga but in the end, ol'EJ got his new old ride and it turned out to be smaller than his previous Scorpio! :scratch:

Anyhow, pics as follows ...

Pic 1 : Got the wee beastie back to chez gijoe1313's fer an impromptu spannering

Pic 2 : Oh yeah, the udder side

Pic 3 : Cracked and dents and scratches? No worries! It'll buff out! EJ doesn't actually understand this concept, but later on, the penny dropped! :lol:

Pic 4 : Ooh :sick: Lotsa dents and scratches :weep: <--- EJ

Pic 5 : Ooh, it did buff out! (Just need some more sanding discs to finish off jobby)

Pic 6 : How I hated the lad trying to prove that men can multi-task .. texting and buffing at the same time? I don't think so Tim! :oi-grr:

Donor and I worked and jimmied the bike around and threatened it with a block and large hammer, seemed to do the trick! :innocent:

Pic 1 : EJ getting into a right sweat

Pic 2 : Ooh I do believe he's got his groove on now

Pic 3 : A happy EJ one step closer to doing the Coro ... have a working bike first! :stupid:

Pic 4 : babyblade250rrrrrrr turned up as a flying wingman with Donor to escort me to pillion EJ on the little ol'hornet.

Pic 5 : Just some good ol'boys, wasn't doing any harm ...

All of my squids are back to school - how come you aren't back at "work"?

I've been thinking about getting something similar to commute on, how much was it?

It was a hard ask, spend part of Waitangi at school setting up the learning space (classroom) or working on bikes and helping out a young'un biker lad!

No contest!

Ask EJ for the details, I don't know how much we will say and when he does, I'll fill in the missing details! :devil2:

I loved the shit out of my FXR... fucking beaut! You'll have alot of fun - just watch out for the tar snakes and oil - those little tyres are SOOO narrow you can ride on the centre line with white to spare on either side.

If you want a whole bike worth of spares minus the forks and fairings I've got one going for 800 ono.
only 5,000 on the clock. if you're keeen?

I find if I hook my knees over the bar ends, it's just enough length for me to use the pillion seat as a cushion... center stand, and I'd be set for camping...

Far too early in the morning to be discussing sensible biking ideas like a spannering night and inauguration of the new motorcyling meat-space! :blink: Oh poops, looks like staff briefing in 9 minutes *sigh* :girlfight:

Should have seen me back when the Virago had a sissy bar. Feet over the gauges, head back against the sissy bar. Bloody comfortable. With the bike on the centre stand I've slept like that.
