    Shit, methinks it may be easier to keep it as is and just explain where the name came from if the need arises!

    We used to have a cat called Beemer too - because when she walked her gut stuck out both sides like cylinder heads! At least my name DOESN'T refer to that! (Yet.)
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    Sold the Scarver

    Sold the F650CS? - I bought one from Shannon last week. Goes great.
    Name - How about Fayzuki or a name with no brand connections that you can keep forever, perhaps incorporating your name/hobby/pet.

    Did you pick up the blue one that was on Trade Me? I noticed it after listing my bike there. The CS is a great bike, I just never felt totally confident on it at low speed due to duck's disease! If it had been a little narrower I would have been fine, but I got to the stage where I hated turning out of our steep driveway and also stopping at the end of our road as it is on a bit of a slope. Since getting the Goose I've rediscovered my love of riding and have no problems getting both feet down.

    You got it!

    Bought that one off TM. I had definite ideas on what I wanted from a bike but never thought of the CS, but it's perfect for my requirements. It feels lighter than it really is due to the low c o gravity because of the mid-ships tank. Boy it's economical too. Just had a fill after my week's work and got 280 km before the light came on = 28 km/l=79mpg!
    Sad that you lost confidence in it but hey, you're still on wheels and loving it. Good on ya.
