... have enough talent to ride it like he does, its still all relative. Matt Wildee, PB editor rode it today and got into a short conversation with him. Asked him if it was more fun than a Panigale, he reckoned its a different kind of fun - This has more grip than power whereas the Panigale has ...

... me off as life is too short. I used to work with a load of miseries, makes me realise how much better off I am... Happy days :) The wife even gave him a slice of cake and a cup of tea and he was still miserable. Wow. I'm gonna eat the remainder of my birthday cake to reset the balance :) I also ...

... with her KA years ago when she walked outside her house to go and have a fag there was a picky with a van and he was poking around it. She asked him what was he doing and he said it wanted to buy it for his daughter etc. To this day I genuinely don't know if he wanted to Nick it or if he really ...

... for my boy. How much?" Pardon me? Do you see a for sale sign? Did I advertise it? **** off... "Sorry mate, not for sale," I tell him. "I'll give you £500," says brains. "That's very generous, but the bike isn't for sale" "£600?" At which point, I ...

I don't think he's got his dad's talent,it's going to be hard for him to fill his shoes

Not unusual to see him about testing/riding different bikes, it is however a little strange to see him in the full liveried leathers

It sucks.. he saved the highside then went onto the grass and the tankslapper took him off. I wasn't watching at the time as I was about to get out on track but apparently he backwards rolled multiple times, got straight back up then fell to the ground.. he only ...

Yeah exactly.. he took me to my first trackday too and was keen to get me racing with him in an Endurance team but sadly, on that very trackday he crashed at 120mph on the kink at Pembrey and hasn't been the same since - he was in hospital for a few days with head ...

He quoted me less but didn't realise there were going to be so many valves needing adjusting so I asked him how much it actually cost and paid that. I assume he replaced some and swapped others over. He does get shims cheap though, he worked on my SV650S previously and did ...

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!

Boris is very intelligent, a lot more so than Cameron, which is why Cameron tries to keep him on side.

Boris reminds me of that form of kung fu where they pretend to be drunk so you think you're dealing with an easy target. Don't fall for it.

... in Australia I have used a bank cheque.You can cancel a bank cheque up to 7 days after its been drawn. One car did have finance on it, so I got him to get a dated payout letter, then had two bank cheques drawn, one for the finance company and one for him. I delivered the cheque to the finance ...

I see that the news is hammering on about “Boris” today. IMHO this sounds like a ploy; They are setting him up as being staunchly Out, but he will “carefully consider” & then, due to “the concessions Cameron has negotiated” will announce that he thinks we should stay in ...

... the bike looks mint. I haven't test ridden it yet but we've agreed a price and he has no problem with me test riding it if I leave the cash with him. Should I get a receipt of some sort at that point and if so stating what? The bike has finance still owed on it which he was honest about. I said ...

Take someone with you who can stay with him. Ask him for proof of his id like a passport or driving licence

Working in the welsh office some guy turns up and tries to flog me robots whilst i was on tea break. I told him i was too busy. Hahaha Trumpets are still made by slitty eyed people aren't they ? One day they might progress into the modern world :D Surely you're not suggesting ...
