Hey, hey Juno.

I saw a green ninja today.
Yeah a green ninja... a green ninja rode by a woman.


OMG that's terrible! What was a woman doing on a motorbike?! She should have been in the kitchen!

Photobucket's being a dick and won't let me upload a few photos.

Anyway, said star letter! Hopefully, you should be able to see it.

The SV now looks a bit more complete :biggrin: I think it's much better looking with the lower fairings on as well. I now just want a different exhaust!

'Wiggles is stuck in Wales at the moment after breaking her clutch lever which means she can't start the engine. She might be getting recovered home or she might have to wait until M&P have got a spare one in for her.

I saw a green ninja today, I cleaned it but didn't put it on Ebay.. I don't know when I'll sell it..
Ready to take the plunge into the world of motorbikes! I've wanted to learn for years, but I've finally taken the plunge and booked a lesson with a riding school.
Weird feeling of excitement and nervousness :redface:

Bonjourno.

I've got to get mine renewed at the end of next month. I've added my Mum to quotes and she's dropped it by £100 or so. Got a friend who said I can add them as well seeing as they've got nearly 5 years experience; that should hopefully drop it a bit more. Cheapest I've got so far is £299 for the SV with 2 years NCB and 1 named rider.

Hello :awesome:

Your family's fine. I like Julian and your sister's ginger rat of a dog's alright :lol: Bless Patch though; lovely dog. I'd quite happily take him home. I can't say enough but thank you for letting me come up with you.

Transformers was AWESOME!

Well you can't have him

fav pic from wales


From the A4069 through the black mountains, its a lovely wiggly road, with a hair pins or two, and the tarmac is so smooth.



Rob also commented that i don't move in my seat when going round the bends, the bike just leans more, i still have smaller strips than him, despite him hanging off like a loon. :biggrin:

track day - as i said it was wet, the maxxis haven't survived this holiday, so need new tyres again, but having said that, they didn't slip on hte track with all hte standing water. So the bike once again needs a full service, and carbs are so far out atm that she's not as fun to ride. Anyone want to do them for me as i'm going to be even more broke?
I'll edit in the track day pics when i get back.

Oh and one of my hamsters died while i was away.

Ahhh, it's alright. I'll just come up to visit again.

The road where that first picture was taken is fantastic! Mind you, I wouldn't mind going back to the place where I told you I'd build my house.

I can't believe how much lean you get whilst still being in line with the bike! Hanging off like a loon looks better though :lol:

And its taken so you can nick it if you want, no one will really know the difference. Looks better, but i don't need to lean to get round the corners lower than you!
