    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    It's an easy typo for "954", innit. Off top of head, and after Googling it myself, I'm sure there never was a 924 blade.

    The likely case that he doesn't actually *have* one means that he won't be mentally cross-checking his profile against the fairing decals he looks at every morning, so he won't have figgered it out yet.

    And, if he goes back and fixes it now, it makes his trollery a bit, well, obvious...

    Does the 929 (I think that's what he said it was?) or even the 954 actually have the number on the fairings? I think that wasn't the case at first (like with the 919s or whatever); they just said CBRRRRR or summat. I dunno.
    And no, he hasn't altered it. I had to check, dammit!
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    That's Polish. The seller (Pavel) wants to sell his 2001/02 model year Honda, first registered in 2002, that has travelled 28,800km. He says it's in good nick, the brakes having recently been reshod. Give him a bell at the attached numbers to discuss price and delivery options.

    I'm guessing that you haven't figured out that there is a fairly excellent sport involved in NOT ignoring them.
