Yes. And lovely. Did I not mention that? Sorry.

[stevedee]

You da man, well done.

Noooo, he's *not* a lucky man. He's a hard-working middle-aged bastard (well, he will be, in 8 months) who deserves every little bit of the nicely-sculpted lump of shiny plastic and aluminium that Sawyers will be uncrating for him on Monday.

Luck ain't got nuffin' to do with it.

Well, I dunno that 'luck' has much to do with it.
He took a wodge of (presumably) hard-earned cash and bought a bike with it. More the result of his own labours than any good fortune.


Edit: well that was mental, posting almost the same thing as jr at the same time.

No doubt he is a hard-working middle-aged bastard , but luck has also had a part to do with it. You can't deny that luck or chance plays a significant part in life. He's lucky to be at a point in his life that he can afford to buy a lovely, new, lovely R6.

I can't help but grin thinking about getting a new bike like that, it must be like being a kid again .

My condolences go out to you for the pain of breaking it in... but CONGRATS on the purchase!!! I'd be bouncing off the walls, like I suspect you are now!!

Good on you Jim, you are about to become a bloody legend again. There is something special about letting your heart rule your head if you can get away with it, and you have! I know the GSX was the most sensible choice for you at the time you bought it however I did wonder how long the relationship would last (felt kind of like when a mate is going out with some bird that you think is totally wrong for him).

But I like yellow chicks with plush seating!

Don't know about legend, but I am expecting to be a cripple until I adapt.

Will have to stay drunk during the weekend to be able to sleep.

So it's a normal weekend for you then, just like the other 51 weekends of the year.
Well done Jim giving into the urge and to hell with the mortgage. My new motto - don't just leave the Kids the house, a house is not a home without a mortgage to repay. They'll appreciate the gift more having to pay for it themselves.

Yeah it sure is a buzz getting a brand new bike. Bugger about the running in, but do it right.
This mid life crisis is a beaut excuse. How many times can we use it before the woman catches on?

[SPman]

.... It looks lovely. And new. It has greasy finger marks on it. They're not mine. .

Any dribble?....any drool?.......

You sick puppy, I think you need professional help. We all know that throwing a leg over a lithe red head, preferably Italian is far more satisfying (we are still talking about bikes aren't we?).

A Japanese lovely with a red top and black underwear will have to do ...

Excuse me for a moment, I have to go somewhere.
