new bikes

[mike636]

so.. last week my 636 went as things were starting to go wrong ( and i fancied a change.)

In its place, first came what is set to become my track bike.

Out of interest, what was going wrong with the 636?

[mike636]

dropped it against a wall and had a few moments on it. thought i best get rid of it before it gets rid of me.

Oops, getting a little too fearless on it are you?

You can use the money you robbed off thingy to fix it :P

[John McCann]

Thingy here would quite like the rest of the money please.

This STILL not sorted???? The guys got no shame!:thumbdown:
He's obviously got no morals or conscience posting about his new bikes if he still owes money. :toss:

I've still not read or heard of Mike's side of the story? Had he explained why no money was given back?

Also Mike, are you going to race ever?

[paiste]

Fair point, but if he had a valid reason for not refunding then surely he would've said? The fact that he re registered makes me wonder! Over to you Mike!!!

agreed

[beabert]

Yep, after reading all the posts, i have come to the same conclusion.

[ravingdavis]

I'm sure Mike told me this was sorted...

If it isn't then I'm deeply unimpressed.

[Binky]

Come on Mike. Just tell us the crack. If it's a bad answer no ones going to claw your face off, you're behind a computer screen. At the minute everyone just assumes you're in the wrong. Fill us in, i'm nosey and need my curiosity cured. ;)

[mike636]

Having been away from the site for some time i have only just read this message.

i was under the distinct impression that this issue was all sorted and there was no funds outstanding.

however, after investigating the issue through paypal and various communications, it would seem there was still an outstanding amount of £35. this has NOW been sent to John (will wait for him to confirm this)

All i can do is apologise for the extreme delay, i do not aim to deceive, **** off, annoy, withhold information or lie to anybody.

I am not one to hide behind my computer screen and id like to think the many guys ive met through the .org dont see me in a bad light.

[ravingdavis]

Glad to hear you have got this sorted mate. Hopefully John will be on to confirm this.

[Binky]

Glad to hear you have got this sorted mate.

Don't believe him!!! He's an *******! ;)

[mike636]

thanks binky!! when you doing a trackday at mallory next?? started club racing at mallory and need to do a few tds there.

[ravingdavis]

So are you Binky but I don't shout it around too much :)

[Binky]

thanks binky!! when you doing a trackday at mallory next?? started club racing at mallory and need to do a few tds there.

Mighty do a cheapy there nearer winter.

Why don't you go racing next year in a Minitwin series? Forget your faggy ZX.

[mike636]

me and mini twins dont get on too well. just put a new engine in the zx and im down to 1 min 0 laps of mallory atm, hoping to get to 58-low 59 sec by xmas.. i dont think im doing to bad for a big guy with the same physical features of the michelin man.

[Binky]

What other tracks have you been to?

[mike636]

not many tbh. raced darley moor in august, did td at donnington and rockingham... need to venture out more.

[beabert]

Im glad its sorted :)

[John McCann]

I am happy to announce that I have now received the remainder of my money.

Outstanding news. It shouldn't have taken so long but at least it is sorted :)

[robh539]

Mike a 1min lap fair play, you have become a proper td junkie then :)

[Binky]

I hope you're not going to let him get away with this. He's had your money for months, in which time he must have earned millions in interest!

Mallory Junkie more like. ;)

1.56 isn't bad at Donni to be honest. Are you going to be racing your ZX then?

[rusty76]

Where abouts are you finishing in the race meets with EMRA or whatever they're called.

[rusty76]

Err......think Mikey would be happy with finishing at the mo.....

[mike636]

ha.. good question binky. cant really call the race at mallory a propper race.. had major fuel issues after qualifying and didnt finnish :( . the leaders in the roadstock class are running 56 second laps! the back half a dozen or so are around 1 min 05.
