[Quote] Yeah I copped one also. The label says it was made in Bangladesh, A change from being made in China I suppose. I guess in Bangladesh, they work for even less money than the Chinese sweatshops do aye. Unless Triumph have a factory in Bangladesh??? [unquote]

I worked in the Hamilton as a engineer for twenty years. The wages in the Waikato are no better than in Wanganui either I found. Have you ever worked in Wanganui Tri boy? I suppose you have never been there either.

New Pics sent to me of 08 Thunderbird Super 3

I tried to leave Bilge but I don't know how to. Anyway I'm through with beating up the Harley blokes and there rides. Although Scumdog was a bit disappointed. And Bilge that's a Porky about me saying that I rubbished your Hoglie. I never rubbished your bike mate and well you know it. In fact I said to you at the RAT hole in Bulls when we met up for a pint what I nice wee bike it was you have a short memory...

You know what mate, most of the Harley riders would have learned to ride on a Jappo, but what gets me going is the fact that they hate Jap Bikes. most of the dudes wouldn't be riding Harley's today if it wasn't for Jap bikes. And they know it. I have had Jap bikes and loved them. Best bike I ever owned was my beloved Suzuki GSX1400 I sold it to a guy in Wangas and he wrote it of after only a month. I will see if I can find a before and after pic and post it. I found a couple so I asked the lady next door if she wouldn't mind. I took her photo whist she was taking a pic of the bike. Any body notice what make of camera she's using?

And I know you never rubbished any of my Triumphs I was riding, because you were riding a Triumph as well. So it would have been a real dumb thing to do aye. True I have had a few trumpets. But I have never never owned a Hinckley Bonnie, a T100. the old Tiger, a rocket, a t6oo, a Daytona, a RS Sprint. or a Bonnie America. So I haven't tried all the Triumphs and I am not looking at a cruiser just yet. I have got the 07 Tiger dressed up nice now. So that will do me for a good while yet. What;s the Streetbob like on gas mate?

yeah I might go to NP with yas all. Has Gravel put it on the Manawangamatu site? as Panto and his mad mates will come down from Dorkland. Ask him next time your down the Pissa.
Cheers
