Dang, a company vehicle has been forced on me!!

**Gremlin** · 15th January 2007, 22:44

So just on new year, my boss announced he was giving me a company vehicle (up till this point I was using the zx7r for everything). Horribly practical, and I can’t enjoy myself on my 7r

Obviously its not gonna split as well (job involves going from client to client sorting out their issues, around the city every day) and I think my boss is sorta glad I can’t split like I used to

I suppose its good in some ways tho, the mileage on the 7r was skyrocketing, and with the company vehicle, everything is paid for, which is really sweet I guess. It’s also really nice around town, whereas the 7’s carbs were a bit of a bitch at times.

Couple of pictures below of it… isn’t my boss awful? I’ll let you know when I hand in my resignation in disgust, so you can apply for this tewwible job (don’t hold your breath)

Have since fitted the top box, for carrying stuff…

Like I said - having previously ridden your company vehicle - don't let the plush suspension, heated grips and relaxed seating position put you to sleep.

Your boss is indeed an evil man. Give him a punch in the stomach for me when you see him next

- This company vehicle ploy is nothing more than his ruthless plan to make you a Honda rider - note all his recent past bikes and current cage....

...Oh yeah..... what's this I hear about a beautiful 7R that needs some riding as it's owner is cheating on it with a naked commuter...........

... I think you better let me have the zixxer

pay no attention to him.. My birthday card ( a bike one ) says " A motorbike doesn't get jealous if you throw your leg over another motorbike " and also that " A motorbike will wait quietly outside the pub while you have a good time with your mates "

have fun

He's my boss!! You punch him, and I'll watch the reaction

That hairnet is a work bike, and I have no intentions of setting the suspension up for my weight. Waaaay too much encouragement. Come play time, its not the country setup like the 7 in any way, and the 7 is heaps more fun - in the country. Around town, I have no comment

however, I did reduce the boss's chicken strips, with town riding...

I don't know if you could handle such a beast... but you can buy it off me... it will be up for sale very shortly (once I get my lazy arse into gear)

Be grateful that he hasn't got a sense of humour and bought you a scooter.

**skelstar** · 16th January 2007, 05:52

Awesome...that bike looks strangely familiar...

**Deviant Esq** · 16th January 2007, 06:03

You. Utter. Tinbum. If you stood in the rain, your arse would rust.

Oh that's just terrible! Report your employer at once to amnesty international, the red cross, the war damages tribunal and the international courts.

I so wish I could justify a company vehicle like that!!!!! But I do claim mileage from my business when I use my bike (the odd time). How in blazes do you get a sweet ride like that past the i.r.d? If I were you I'd immediately go out and purchase a dozen of the finest and park them on your bosses desk for being such a good basket.
