    I think Jimmy will complain about that complaint

    Anyway nice one Jimmy might see you there sometime. I'm still waiting for the parts guy to ring me back about the part for my WR250F I asked about in March.
    Cheers

    Mate unless you're run off ya feet I reckon you have a major point of difference if you offer to setup the suspension on each bike before it rolls out the door after a sale.

    I know I certainly appreciated it when you setup the suspenders on my R1.

    Best of luck in the sales game

    Cheers

    .... back in green and feeling great ....

    So all you Wellington riders who want to come say hi, I'm at TSS Red Baron in Lower Hutt.

    Open 9 till 4 on Saturdays, come in and say hi.
