For some reason i'd think i'd be repaying you, but as MD said if you want to clean my leathers that'd be enough, infact you'd prolly want to clean them before i ride your bike. Everyone was asking me if i fell off during the track day, i said no no this from last week at manfeild.

Be that as it may. You haven't answered the question.

So let me get this straight. You've ridden with me on a few occasions and seen first hand, the mastery of The Finn and you still want to race me for the reg papers?

Good luck with the performance pipe too, Eyeties are often reluctant to "put things right" in the way us Kiwi's are accustomed to. I think we should send Neil Martin over to give 'em the learn. After all, it's the putting right that counts. (Was that just a welly thing??)

Neil Martin that Gormless Cunt what did he ever put right....?

And matching MV g-strings.

Finn, what other bikes did you look at before you settled on the brutale? The new tourno comes close, looks odd though - but still fancy one.

Umm, no need to post any pictures Finn as evidence Ok, we'll just take your word that they're really nice and fit you well.

The tourno got it's styling from the Raleigh 20. I looked at the Monster S4RS but it looks 10 years old. None of the jap naked bikes do it for me. I like the look of the Speed Triple but I don't look good in a mullet with tight black jeans and an oversized belt buckle.

I wanted something differant and after seeing the MV and reading the reviews I had to have one.
