they were complaining the dollar was too high a few months back.. ffs..

one thing you can count on, is no matter how high petrol and all things related to petrol (so everything) get with inflation, you won't have to worry about being called to the bosses office for that pay rise to reflect it

No price rises at AMPS yet. Just the opposite - big sale soon.

What "competition"? The Hardleys are bigger and have more torque than anyhting Deere and Ferguson produce!

Or were you thinking in terms of top speed? Coz you're probably right, in that respect...

You are obviously referring to farmers.

It rains = "It's a flood - give us money"
The sun comes out = "It's a drought - give us money"
The dollar goes up = "We can't compete - give us money"
The dollar drops "The country OWES US - give us more money"

**Streetwise** · 29th March 2006, 20:28

mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo what farmers got to do eith this ??

Looks like I got my HD order in just in time!

BTW you can put me up against a Massey Fergusson on Manfield whenever you like. Give me just ten laps and I wager that I can beat it by at least 5 seconds, and all without sounding like an angry mosquito with a harmonica up it arse.
And I'll thoroughly enjoy every hour of it.

Also there has been manuvering by a big company here in JApan, they are effectively controling the bike prices at Auction,
Its having knock on effects onnthe private market , you should see the prices for ...some crap ....I know its an Sp model sir ,,,but it a pile off dog doo.....

Mind you there still are bargains,

Just remember what the track will look like when you prepare to lap the Massey... LOTS of ploughed bits in the track from the ploughing implements at the arse end of the tractor!!!

Not to mention what the track will look like after ten laps of the Hardley dropping bits...
