Sorry Guys gone all ORANGE

[Allan Davies]

Well went into Riders today to look at PXing the 12 for a new GS800 and in the corner was this orange thing whistling at me, 'saying look at me I'm an 09plater with only 1300 miles on the clock' Then 'PLEASE ENTER YOUR PIN, SIR' and it was all over, GS gone (good trade in ) and now a quick call to Mel to break the news All i got was 'you can take it for a spin on the weekend, if you want. As long as your not back tooooo late'
Sorted!!!
Am I still allowed at the monthly meets then?

 

[QuickNick]

What you gone and done now you mad impetuous fool you
I hope thats Mel's new pink jacket in the background?

 

[PW Cymru]

Ooooh that looks nice.

No you can't come your barred

Oh go on then but only if you give me a go

I spotted that in the showroom recently,I asked why it had been traded in with so few miles on it
Salesman said "don't tell anyone but it's a lemon-the crankshaft's made of cheese and the wheel spokes are made of drinking straws-it'll fall apart in a week"

Nice one Al enjoy

OOERR ?

Nice one Allan,
BigAl and I had a look at that whilst we were there couple of weeks ago.
I must say I was tempted myself!
Only problem is, it's got one of them messy chain gizmos!
That will never catch on!
Hope you're let off the leash for the 21st.

Hi Allan,

I think we had a conversation in Westgate St yesterday concerning this very bike.

I was the Tosser on the black 1150.

Good to meet you. Like I said, you'll be back

 

[big albig]

And the spoked wheels,
the chain drive
the twin fuel tanks
the tandem headlight.

Any chance of a go on it, Pleeeeeeeeeessssssseeeeee.

I'm soooo gobsmacked Al, I bet Mel wont like the seat (about as comfy as a plank with a towel wrapped around it- so I'm told).

 

[Robbo1200ADV]

[PW Cymru]

He's got to learn to keep it on the straight and narrow first before he starts on wheelies

ARK AT EWE!!!! At least it can make it up a snotty gravely track wearing scorps, without me running (well gravity induced running ) back down the track to give you a push I have a couple of photos as well. Why did I say that He didn't stall it in the water by the way It was an otter he had his foot on

Jas, Mel will be tooooo busy with Baby Jack to sit on the back. Your next BTW. you can run but you can't hide.
I wanted to do the Equinox rallry, in Sept (but fully booked)I am pondering the one in March but will have scorps on, or is that a non runner

Managed the Cambrian on scorps (bar one special test, that is. Paul needed a push )

Just hear say

Facts! Give us the facts!!!



By the way......... The Future is Orange!

 

[(RIP) Tunneruk]

I'll be joining you on Sunday!!

 

[Allan Davies]

Good man, you won't be sorry. I'm not, but I will have to stop giving it a handfull as I will be needing a new rear tire before the 4.5K service I can't help myself though

 

[(RIP) Tunneruk]

Mines a used one,

So you don't regret the move?

 

[Allan Davies]

Not one bit, and my old GS12 was reliable as you like. 30k and no probs. Just felt the urge (about a year ago really) and haven't looked back since
Handles a lot better of road too A lot rarer than the BMW clitoris ta boot!!!!


















Thought I would never part with the GS either, and Mel did remind me of that too
