    Gee, I almost feel like apologising to the seller for that FW somehow implying that I was trashing him, which clearly I didn't. But then I'd have Boner following me around on Tardme if I ever launch an auction. So, no. I'm not on that Feral comments thread.

    Generally such a sad man to hold such anger. Life is too short to be a ball of fury at the world what dun ronged you in some internalised manner.


    I have better things to do.

    Like actually ride motorcycles.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    So, I went and had a relook and Boner is having a right old paddy. Think the seller is commenting about Boners poor form rather than anything from here, which is not slating him in any case, rather the questions and comments on his auction. Poor fucking form Boner, shame!

    I see TM have cleaned up the comments, good call. I'm glad I decided not to get involved despite being called out. Fortunately he showed his true colours. Hopefully learning the lesson to stop being so nasty to people.

    You can imagine his workmates dreading going to the pub with him tagging along, knowing he'd drag them into a fight and hide behind them.

    Trade me should have pulled the whole Auction he clearly bought this on himself by trying to sell a bike that's is not ready for sale and reading his latest comments he's in no rush to get it ready.
    Comments like "Maybe a thumpstar is more in your budget" don't do him any favors either.
    There would be buyers already saying I'm not dealing with this guy.

    The lesson here is if you want top dollar for your classic this is not the way to go about it

    Created a bit of discussion here tho to pass the day

    Cool Greg Hagaman modded XV920 but check out the comment from mark.p

    So, welcome to the knitting circle, bitches!

    clearly he has sat on some cutty grass and his nethers are shredded.

    Bit rich for my blood at over $10k with an hour or so to go.


    edit: sold for $12200 to gbexport. Him and brett37 had a real ding-dong over it.

    That actually looks quite good. Pity someone couldn't break out the autosol on the ally covers while in storage.

    So I've mostly changed over to merino these days. Can you actually buy the wool? And its quite fine gauge, do you need real thin needles or something, or is it unrealistic to do by hand?

    I dont know how it would ride. the suspension was lowered by two inches in front and it runs 30W fork oil! It did have some sort of shorter shock in it too.

    My clipon days are gone I think.

    I will ask SWMBO for any knitting tips though like you she hasnt done any for ages. She did actually knit me a fairisle jumper years ago. It was really cool and super warm. My gran could do all the fancy patterns with the cables and bobbles and so forth... she was amazing. I still have a winter hat she knitted me years ago. No pom pom though, I dont go for that. Unless they're on a well filled bikini.

    Without wishing to be uncharitable, he was a prick when he was here, I guess we shouldn't be surprised he's a prick elsewhere. They probably had a piss up in the Mess when he quit the air farce.

    He would hilariously call me "sweaty" while he was trying to be condescending. I couldn't work out if he didn't know how to spell "sweetie" or sweaty was how he likes his men. Either way, he flounced out of here like a proper trump, or did he get pushed? Meh.

    Henry trolled him a great one a few years back with How nylocks were the go for VFR400 conrods.
    https://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/s...post1131152852




    As far as i can tell he's not binned he just somehow become self aware that almost everyone doesn't appreciate him.
    Its possible I might have got him binned a few times and were also possibly the reason he opted out of rep.
    But i am only 99.9% sure on that one.

    With the bike.
    Not my thing but better than 99% of what's modified on Tm.
    but i would ask my money back on the mechanic charging him to re polish the corroded cases....

    Should i know who Greg Hagaman is?
    okay goggle found him
    http://www.hagemanmc.com/

    Looks like that particular bike he does starts at at $17,000usd
    go to the pricing page, no guarantees it was in a mag he sells them bulk by the look of it.

    Agree totally. I wouldn't want anything to do with him. The auction finishes in just over 24 hours and he still hasn't posted any pics. Go figure.
