I;'m well on my way to being a SuperSportsbikeRider...

again!

It’s been 7 long years ( since my youngest was born)

Now the time is right…

The wheels have been set in motion, the plans made, the hints dropped…

…and it ain’t a Gixxer

Whaaaa… but mine’s for sale!

You see this is where temptation leads you

But I promissed me dear old dad I would never buy a bike whose manufactuerers name ended eith a Vowel!!!

Only kiddin!

so the begging trousers worked did they??

Like a dream!!!…er actually she doesn’t know the full story… yet

Plan C part 23 involves buying a bunch of flowers, splashing Brut all over and getting a slab of Green and Blacks…

Good for you.

Remember it is sometimes easier to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission

Hmmm

Yamaha - No

Suzuki - No

Honda - No

Kawasaki - No

Ducati - No

Errm

BMW?

Buell?

Aprilia - No

Cagiva - No

Hyosung?

MV?

Actually MV Augusta - No

'kin 'ell mate…You’re making the choices difficult for yourself

Royal Enfields in though!

There’s one parked outside my office…A new retro type…Sounds lovely.

KTM is also in

Last time I checked ‘h’ wasn’t a vowel, so Triumph has to be on the list!

Mmmm… Daytona 675…

He’s going to buy a Triumph!

End of…

You gave it away!

hang on…

DaytonA

??? whoops…

Well, technically it ends in ‘5’ so I think you’re safe

Nice one mate - very nice indeed!! Looking forward to seeing that

It better not be what I think it is… Anyways, they sold out and won’t make them anymore. Can always get a BMW… Still better than those jap toys they all ride…

I got your busniess card so I know where you work… Do not make me come down and show you the light…

Daytona is the model name, not the manufacturer name though so he’s ok.

NO, IT IS NOT OK. DAYTONA 675 IS A BAD BAD BIKE!!! TRIANG SHOULD NOT GET ONE AND NEITHER ANYONE ELSE… JAP BIKE IS WHAT HE WANT…

He’s right yer know…

The damn thing drops oil all over the place,

First sign of rain the paint peels away from the fairings

ALL the electrics fail within three week needing a total rewire#

It uses 5 litres of Mobil 1 every 100 miles otherwises it siezes and fires the valves through the cylinderhaed and into your privates

er…

Leicester is a terrible place and Hinkley is worse - Triumph employ crack addicts who eat lard straight out of the packet

You can’t go over 72mph because the gearbox will sieze

Trade in value is about £39.40 after 6 months…

All above copywrite “Bike” magazine 2006 ( don’t drop another one boys )

DONT GET ONE ( is that ok Fredric or am I pushing it too much?)

Oh no offence Jay but the ******* dealer is giving me a cracking trade in on mine - and I have a choice of new or a 600 miler with a whopping discount…

Nothing against Gixxers chum!

Who are you buying from? On Yer *******?
