Um, excuse my stoopidity. But is this for Friday? That what you are on about?
You're forgiven, yes this Friday :)
I'll be there if it's not raining - don't mind the cold but too lazy to clean bike afterwards if it's wet out.

I have indeed been to several Friday meets! The first time I met dodgy characters from the forum was the Friday where a curry happened afterwards? And I was around last Friday too.

I was there the night everone went for a curry... and i didnt get on my bike in time to come. And i was starving. But it was a big turnout if i remember right, so no wonder.
I missed last friday, but will be there this Friday.
Maybe we have spoken but didnt realise?
Anyhoo... latte please, brown sugar. Thanks ;)

I got 1 broken thumb, right hand indicator gone, right mirror broken, exhaust and link pipe scratched quite abit, right fairing cracked and broken, broken rear brake lever, thats all i can remember until i have a better look when it gets dropped off so ebay here i come and hopefully see you guys in a couple of weeks

Oh mate, hope the thumb heals up quick. Broke mine many many years ago. Its suprising how much you use it and dont even realise :roll:
Sorry to hear the above, good luck finding some cheap bits too ;)

Really sorry to hear this, this time of year is a real b*stard. You could have come off worse injury wise but there's still enough personal damage for it to be both painful and upsetting. As for the bike, if there's anything we can do, let us know. Oh and welcome to the world of scuffs, dents and scratches ;). So chin up lad, keeping a positive attitude will help you mend all the quicker.
.
Really sorry to hear that 650newb - hope you and the bike mend soon.
I got a problem for Friday. B/f (perhaps now ex b/f) has gone AWOL since Monday and the SV is locked in his garage. Bit of a strange one .. could always come on the Vespa.
Not sure how I'm gonna get bike back ... :( :(

Sorry to hear about the off, though sounds like not too much damage, really.
Crash bungs?
Anyway, I think I will be along, so long as the weather stays as it looks like it will.
Baldyman, I won't meet you at Heston, it adds about 20 miles onto the journey. I'll be coming all the way up the M3 and eventually rejoining the A4, so could either meet you along there or just meet you in Soho.

I should be seeing you lot friday.
Sorry guys, I'm cancelling this Friday. My Ma is making an emergency visit to London tomorrow to sort me out in the way that only she can. I'll be up for a ride out on Sunday if any one else is - speed is hugely therapeutic :)

Ah yes, therapy is good. Where do you have in mind for a ride? (if the weather is ok, of course :oops:)

So she's taking you shopping then is she? :lol:
Catch you another week and I hope things improve ;)

Nope - she's coming on the back of the SV and we're off to Rochester to visit. :) I hate shopping .. unless it's for my new can (bike has done exactly 1000 miles) and new alarm system to be fitted - recommendations appreciated.
Flaming Squirrel - not done so much riding round home counties - got any suggestions. Looks like it'll be fine but cold on Sunday so could stop off for brunch/lunch somewhere.

I really need to start paying more attention to where we go on rideouts so I can remember the good routes :o

Let me know how it goes, I'm in the unfortunate position of needing an op on my thumb too but I'm holding it off as I can take the pain and limited movement for now, although it's getting worse.
I dont think i can make it. Im off to france for the day...

Hey Claire
Right then alarms. I have had a Lazerline 860 on the SV from new. Its never ever caused me an ounce of trouble. Its a little on the bulky side, but its meant for a car. I has a low current draw so enable to be left on for long long periods without flattening the battery.
As for routes. Id make my way to East grinstead, then the A264 to Tunbridge wells, out the other side and follow signs for maidstone. The turn right and of to rochester you jolly well go.
:)...oh and a woman that hates shopping...must be something with the claires of this world. My ex hatted it as well....me, i luv shopping. hmmm shoes.... :shock: :lol:
Cheers for that ..(Flaming Squirrel did you jot the details down - cos you are official leadman) ..
I'll be out next Friday 25th or even at Selkent on Wed (you do go to that .. I'm still crap at names) and can discuss re alarms then. Would be cool.
In meantime, thanks to you'll for the nice p.m.s and votes of confidence.

If its red i dunno why you just dont leave it.
If its that "nasty" kinda ginger... why not go red?
My g/f's got a few grey hairs (like i care... i'm sure i brought them on tho :oops: ) and goes for a reddy kinda colour. Not the ones that are ferrari red (even tho i'm sure it would work on her) but just away from that "boring brown" idea.
Anyway, the stylist will be along shortly.. can i get you a tea or cofee while you wait?

that would be the Honda Fizzy then would it :?: :roll:
this one is the SS50 four stroke.
http://i21.ebayimg.com/02/i/03/6f/8f/fa_1_b.JPG
of the day the three mopeds to have were
Yamaha FS1E (two stroke)
http://www.fs1e.co.uk/e2%20Jasons.jpg
Suzuki AP50 (two stroke)
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~taylor/bikes/ap50.jpg
or if you were rich Fantic caballero (two stroke)
http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pattle/nacc/arc0318d.jpg
the Honda was made to look very much like the Fizzy, but was a good bit slower in both acceleration and top speed, although it didn't blow up as much and was more reliable. the pipe was well cool though.
Cheers Mark.

The Mighty X7, (GT 250 X7), loadsa noise and, on a good day, 100 imperial miles per hour, 'kin excellent :twisted:
Now I had an SS50E, so I would love to have seen that - this was then followed by a Kawasaki S1 250 triple.
