haha, yeah the terrible start to my motorcycling career. Thankfully I have learnt my lessons, taken my licks and am better for it. Looking back, It could have all turned out worse, but I am thankful it didnt. Na blackbird didnt include any trainer wheels, what he did include though was plenty of good advice and tips as well as being a top notch guy who was supportive of my descision to buy the bike. Goes to show there are still genuinely nice people left in this world. Mind you there are still some straight up arseholes like yourselves, sitting in your serial killer lair, posting to and fro picking on other people and being plain abusive. So what I say to you is, ride safe and have a nice day, the sun is shining and the birds are singing.

$10 sez the Blackbird is on its side within 6 months, you want to take that bet?

No, not really. Id rather spend that ten bucks on petrol. Ever considered being nice to people, or do I just grind your gears.

Stop snivelling boy. Actually the $10 bet was a faint hope that it would serve as a motivating factor not to kill yourself; the motivation was hatred of SPB!

Hi ital916,

And welcome to the wonderful world of Bird ownership, I know you have bought a cracker bike there, I have known this bike for a number of years and have done some work on it and know it to be a stunner. Look after it and you will have a blast, I’ve had mine 10 years and counting.

Might catch you on the road some day

Davey
