In preparation for Switzerland, I bought myself a new Drift Ghost on the principle that it was vital for many, many things :curious:

Gonna revive my YouTube channel for everyone; especially for when I get the Honda over there. On that note, does anyone want to ride over with me in May? It'd be 2 or 3 days (maybe more) worth of riding subject to the time I can get off. As much as a trip like that by myself would be cool, it'd be much more awesome with someone else.

I think it's meant to be a bruteforce and they have the description wrong bar the one place that it says brute force with 4 bolts. That said i've ordered two and will see what they send me!

Out there for at least 6 months as of next Thursday. May have my contract extended though if I do a good enough job.

It lasts for 5 minutes but I'm sure you'll get the picture.

Coooomee ooonnn Wiggles; we've run away together before :h:
Some bike swapping going on between friends (of a friend).
Fazer, 1999, 20,000 miles, T&t next month, but he is prepared to add a year at cost. London area.

In Doncaster is mate with Harley something. He may sell that and buy the fazer. But he is selling his wife`s Suzi GN125, 2006, nearly 9000 miles, 12 months mot, 3 week tax. On autotrader at £999.

Asking price of fazer was £1150 if he delivered it to Donny. Suppose considerably less if you collect. Wish I could afford it, but the GS is poorly.

More like hold on for dear life and the bike sorted itself out!

I was leant over at 60mph going round a bend and all! Then had a **** load of wobble through the front, kept the throttle on and just powered through. Jesus christ.

It's nasty when you get that, i've had a few times where i've had the option of crashing or keep accelerating and hoping that it'll right itself. It's a beautiful day and i'm inside tidying as i go on holiday tomorro so need to sort the house out

Ah cool, good luck. I've been looking into doing a PhD in Vienna, and I was wondering, out of curiosity, what happens to the bike in terms of registration/insurance when you move abroad? Do you have to "export/import" it?

I went on a history trip to Sutton Hoo and rode back through the Suffolk/Norfolk countryside all afternoon/evening, it was beautiful.
Did anyone else do that Suzuki offer thing for a free snood? Not got an email or anything off them since...

I contacted the Swiss embassy about my personal situation but the link they sent me explains about foreign students (you) as well.

Click on the first link (fact sheet 15.50, sections 1 to 3) and look for section 4.2.

Boris gets a bit excited about the thought of free stuff, and didn't check the t and c's.

You probably won't get one.
