Re: Advice for buying a bike privately
Thanks for all the input everyone. Just been for another look and it seems very clean. I'm going to test ride it Saturday morning and then all being well pay off the finance myself and pay him the remaining balance. Saved myself £1000 over dealer price!

Re: The new improved fitness thread
It'll be shoulders this aft for me, I'll be pushing as hard as I can whilst being mindful of my dicky shoulder. Yesterday saw me working the bag. I'm still unfit! I took a short video to see how I was doing as opposed to how I thought I was doing. Points noted: ...

... as 240 of the 250 of us in Operations got made redundant due to ceasing Refining operations and converting to a Terminal with finished product being imported. It's the whole reason I ended up out here Offshore. They finally got the 5th stack down at 6.30pm tonight after 4 separate attempts ...
