May I beg a favour of one of you kindly two fiddy owner types?

Oh I could go places with that, but out of sheer respect (and a knowledge I don't have a shit show in hell of actually catching you)... I won't.

That Smiley's kinda thought provoking...

Yeah.

Except I've already got dibs on the front, dude. No tongue-wiggling for you.

Enough of the bloody innuendo already...

what's the bike?

I'm not bloody guessing again as to what it is.

Yes, West Auckland it is.

I have received some... criticism... over the form of my initial post, by the way, and shall now edit it according to suggestion.

You spelled "License" wrong too. Or did you get a 12 year old to type it for you?

It will be good to have you further in the fold.

Ewww.

Bad mental image.

When I said I edited it 'according to suggestion', I was being quite literal. I wished to preserve the suggestion's charm and spontaneity.

Keystone19 has immortalised the original in her quote, should you prefer the genuine Fishy flavour.

I'll tell you when I get it. I haven't got it yet. For all I know something will go horribly wrong and I'll have to go buy an SV650, or something.

Shudder.

Don't worry, I won't pander to my attention-seeking instincts by putting up a "Look at me look at me guess what my new bike is" thread. I'll just chuck up some photos when it arrives.

D'ya think he still remembers how he was going to hand it on to you?

The "deal" had nothing to do with the age of the bike. Any transaction was to be based on the death of the Hitcher. However a certain fickle person's fancy waned once the ZRX1200R was sold. That's gratitude for you.

If you're 'discrete', then I guess I'm a continuous function.

But I try to be discreet about it.

That would be concrete.

Yet more proof - you really don't fit in around here do you. C'mon man - make an effort.

OK. Yes. Well. Hmm. Ahem.

Firstly, my thanks to a certain KBer and his lovely wife for their kind loan of a bike this week.

...

Secondly, my thanks to the same KBer and his lovely wife for their kind agreement to loan me the bike again next week.

Note to self: check whether one has blown any indicator bulbs before smugly rocking up to licence tests.

Sigh.

Yes, I am a moron.
