You know me too well H

Trouble is I just took the Blackbird in for its MoT which it passed with not a single issue and simply drew 'in bloody good nick that bike' comments from the guys at Burwin's. As a result I still feel very attached to it.

It's just such a damn fine bike, and I'm normally a died-in-the-wool Honda-hater.

But...

I've just spent all weekend toying with and training against a Hayabusa...with the express interest of "dealing" with certain people on Blackbirds come June.

I don't 'deal' with anyone John so you'll be waiting a long way past June.

You bringing the 1098?

[jltownshend]

Indeed! Hopefully freshly and well shod this time.

But Mr Flash has first dibs.

I'll be MOT'ing the S this month just in case.

Oooh...I hope you'll be supplying the necessary tissues to wipe the drool off it!! Look forward to seeing it in the flesh.

I'd rather not have a spin on it tbh - simply because if I do my life may never be the same again.

Which ferry crossing you doing John?

[nab 301]

I leave it up to you to talk me out of it

Can you give me first refusal when you get bored in a month or three
(do you take trade ins ?)

Richard , there is no law against having 2 bikes
Reg.

There is in this house unfortunately.

You got rid of the em zeds as well

Nigel B

ps, memories of previously enjoyed bikes are generally just that,.... memories

Nigel - still got the Zeds but they're a force of nature, not motorcycles

Saying that, the 301 is probably going to go - the poor thing just doesn't get any use whatsoever and it's a crying shame to leave it standing in the garage.

You're probably right re the memories thing, but my 2nd 11R was bought on the strength of exactly that and on riding it away from the dealer I felt like I'd come home again.

Exactly!! Go on get it bought.

Peter.

Thanks Peter - that's done my indecision the power of good.

[herrman]

Glad to be of help Richard.

[Gromit]

Glad to be of help Richard.

You're all heart Peter...

What you're supposed to say is 'save your money, you really enjoy the bike you've got and only need change it if you're unhappy'.

[jltownshend]

Possibly Speedferries again...

I have posted a picture elsewhere just for you...

[herrman]

And the result of your negotiations is??? Spill the beans Richard, Will it be Honda or BMW power come Chateau Flash. We need to know these things.

Regards Peter.
