This line is from Desiderata....

'If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself'

I love that line and it goes so well with everything in life, no matter what you do!
I will carry on biking with the absolute knowledge knowing that I do not have to prove myself to anybody (except myself naturally) and im easily pleased...

Lesson over, as you were...

Just shows you are a man of good tastes...nothing wrong with that!

I just got a pair of Scorpions for my VTR1000. They make my bike sound very sexual indeed.

Ooooooohhh...most excellent mate! I bet she sounds a heck of a lot better now.

Ride faster and carry your shotgun strapped to your back. That's my philosophy now...

I passed...no more wee bikes for me

and I have decided that given that fact I can be as big a wanker as I see fit to

Can you buy a "big" bike without having your full licence? I know that when I bought my 2fiddy, they had to sight my licence before they would sign off on the ownership papers. I would assume that it must be the same for a big bike.......... isnt it?

If you are buying from a shop you probably still need to have the license sighted

**mattian** · 19th September 2008, 19:35

ah ok.... so, you brought your bike from someone who didnt mind that you didn't have a bike licence?....hehe

**Trudes** · 19th September 2008, 19:37

She does have a license, just wasn't a full one.... that would be her choice and decision as she would be the one wearing the consequences of the decision.
