    Makes perfect sense really. Just have a sort of paddock stand for the moments when the bike is stationary, but for the remainder, just sit back and relax safe in the knowledge that never again will you have to have front tyres, front brake pads or wheel bearings.

    You snooze you lose lol

    Thanks mate - tbh, I knew it wouldn't be about long and as said, be gutted if I let pass by so jumped on it. If its any consolation my pal has just bought the tuono and it looks a proper weapon that! He's well pleased with it....

    Exactly the same as me as to why I didn't do it before..... Been pondering on the purchase then she said she doesn't want to move now and boom! Deposit down lol

    Going down on my bro in laws bike, we are going to leave early door to hopefully get there and make a decent ride back of it, aiming for 10.30am....

    Could meet at jaspers for a cupper?

    houses eh! we got a good offer on ours before we really committed to move. looked at loads of places but nothings just right for us and don,t fancy doubling the mortgage for an ok place. think were on the verge of staying put so could be new bike time lol. i,ll drop you a pm saturday jimbo if i can get up there.

    Exactly the same! Stay put build extension and buy new bike... Seems like a good plan to me :)
