Holy shit - you can't talk about doing BURNOUTS on KB, Katman will get his panty liners wet!

Since we're on the subject of bikes in the living room, is it unreasonable to want to have your scoot in the living room? I even got one of those flat screen jobbies so it would fit??

Was at a party many years ago when a mate brought his 750 in to do a burnout on the wooden floor. Left a trench, oops! (His ex flatmate brought it up in conversation just last week). Then we saw how many people you could get on a motorcycle, but crashed into the couch.

When my friend moved in for a couple of weeks I had a racebike in the spare room where she was staying in. - Well at least she knew what she was in for when we got married years later.

Back in the late 80's, when anything on two wheels left unattended dissapeared, I parked my Harley in the lounge, beside my bedroom door.
No way would I trust the garage,a chain, or anything that was ""secure"".
My wife at the time loved the bike as much as me ( more the bike than me I think),thus I was never allowed to clean it as she decided it was part of her daily housework to polish it! Choice!
I had several friends at the time who also parked their bikes inside their houses. EVO Harleys being recent additions to the market then, were a target for theives.
Unfortunatly for one of my friends, Mark, who came to visit me on his Ducati, parked on the drive, came inside ...was there for no more than 10 min ... it vanished.
We found parts of it for sale in Tasmainia 6 months later, Identifiabile because to was an unusual model at the time, so the matching parts for sale was very unusual. Can not remeber the model, but was not a Dama
So in my opinion,
If it dose not leave behind a spot or two on the carpet... the Lounge! Safest Place on the property.
As a foot note, my Insurance Company, AMI, saw it a an exerlent idea and gave me a lower premium because of where it was kept. Strange people!
I owned my own house at the time, dont think landlords would approve these days.

Premix it with your left over castrol tts! (Is there such a thing?) and let it idle all night long

Ive still gotta come round on the 125 soon! I managed to flip the thing by pinning the throttle open in 2nd gear and dropping the clutch!

Mate, my ex had the Harley experience for his mid life thingy.....we had mountains of insurance with this company, they refused us cover, well that is a porky actually, we could get cover, but if we saved the premiums, after 5 years we could buy another one!

We bought an alarm! Worked a treat, only remember one early morning trip to the garage with baseball bat in hand anyway...

That till our daughter 9ish at the time, opened the door to the garage to ??? and an almighty noise was her welcome followed by a couple of mad, semi naked adults came rushing towards her with intent!

If they want it they will take it!
