    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Currently? No bike bits - I'd be a bit worried if bits of my bike ended up on my desk at this stage in their life! I do have a model of an R1 and the insurance papers for the Goose, which arrived in the mail today. The pad is an old Britten one. On the floor behind me there's a pair of waterproof gloves (the rest of the gloves are in a chest of drawers in the same room) and a tank bag. Oh, and a pile of bike magazines.

    On the wall unit in the dining room is trophy made from a carburettor - our club's economy run trophy, which I have won for the past two years. 31km per litre on the BMW - got told I'm not allowed to enter on it this year so it will be interesting to see how well the Goose does!

    In my desk drawer there is a tiny bit that came off Tommi Makinen's car when he crashed in the Rally of NZ in about 1998. The bumper was too big to bring home...
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    Arrow Nothing at my comp station.

    However the bench in the workshop is another matter. Too much to list or remember...

    On my desk at work: Suzuki GS stator waiting for me to get around to rewinding it and a pile of assorted bike magazines but mainly bits of assorted computer related crap.
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    On my desk at work I have a bit of broken fairing from my old TRX (sniff I still miss it) and on my desk at home is the piston from my old XR 250 and a piston from my WR 450.

    Desk at work has an OE Honda horn, which may have a more promising career as a paperweght than it did as a warning device. (I fitted a pair of FIAMM horns to the bike.)

    No bits on the desk at home but three bike books /mags. And a right now, a glass of red :-)

    The only reason I only ride in the Iron man Class is I have no friends left to enter the two man events,
    my own fault really.

    oh ok. I had one for a short period. Except it was a '70s model 90cc. Funny little bike. Do they still have a similar design, with the fat tyres.
