(actually, very little- knowing CB125 brakes)
    Sounds like it needs a wee zap with the mig
    My neighbours diary says I have boundary issues

Then a whole bunch of arthouse pseudo intellectuals praise the book probably as some sort of sick joke followed by the emperors new clothes effect making it a best seller. Bah.
    +1 it was crap, can't see why so many people wank on about it
