how old a bike can you source stuff for love?
Im on the lookout for bits for my 82 LTD. I know a place in the US where I can buy stuff, but the exchange rate is a bit unhelpful at the moment and freight costs are pretty h igh.

Dude that is fantastic.. wish I had known a week ago I would have sent you the business I sent direct to Japan.

Oh well I am sure there will be more purchases for the Gixxer, will have to drop in and say hello tomorrow.

Fantastic news.. good luck with it.

Well wouldn't you know it! Up with the worms who still have their sleeping caps on! Anyway, off to scoot around to give Jeaves a wakey-wakey and pick up Ting, our volunteer promo girl for the day! (And no, not Ting Tong from Hong Kong, ala Little Britain :slap

Ods bodkins, toodle pip and all that tommy rot wot? Chocks away! See you all there for elevenses and buttered cream scones and pikelets! (Or something gribbly and Jeaves and Wooster-like! Oh ho ho!)

Geez, I'd pay you twice this much, for a harness for the rear of my bike.

Want to build a tail tidy this winter and hate the idea of cutting my wires...

Gah, just got in the door, ton of things I had to do on getting back to Auckland!

Anyway, thanks to all the KBers who dropped in and said hello and mooched a freebie off me! (you all know who you are, even if I don't!) I was doing all the gabbing, Jeaves was there to actually provide the tangible facts, which I lacked. Little Ting was getting too cold, too hot at times and spent most of the time looking for a usable porto-loo

Great times, great racing, was sorry to hear from TOTO about the appalling crash, which reminded me instantly of the winter olympics incident.

I managed to get away from the tent to do a little gad about with zeocen who was going home early.

Anyway, tired I am now (had to get a hour power nap in the arvo!), van still to be sorted ... but feel good ... and it's all thanks to people like you who (in best Bette Midler voice) act as the air beneath my wings (or is that a lead weight to my feet?

)

Next time, I'm riding my bike though dammit!
