[blingking]

[lynw]

hey lynw

:lol:

I held a black pointy up at the same time :oops:

I was having front tyre on paint issues and a spatial awareness problem between a van and a long load lorry. :oops:

Thats my excuse anyway - Im on a blue, older curvy with a top box, gaffer taped front panels [both sides] :lol:

[cyphertheory]

black pointy at the same time? could be me? i ride with oggy all the time. but then it could have been james perhaps?

[Oggyplonk]

sounds like it was me and cythertheory, all is forgiven :D

[sexysi]

welcome mate,
hope to see ya on a rideout soon. I live in bexleyheath, I used to live in upper belvedere, so it's almost erith, ride safely dude and don't scare to many oap's.

What came of the chemical smell at B+Q, in Erith, never did find out what it was!

hey si

dont know about the smel i never smelt it!!
talking of riding safe i got knocked off bout two weeks ago. stupid **** pulled out on me. luckly i just nipped his back bumper but i still fell off and the bike hit the floor. nothing to major just a few scrathes and broken rear brake lever. could have been worse :?

[Viney]

Word to the Oggyplonk. Welcome to the site

[Oggyplonk]

hey dude. what you riding?

[sexysi]

Viney is on a very dark met police blue with orange wheels and lots of dirt etc etc svs :lol:
Me brand new z1000 still running in. With undertray,tail tidy, four sets of r&g's and hopefully quad blue flame pipes, seat cowl and larger screen.

A woman pulled out on me, when she was backing out of her drive, and wrote off my rizla green sk1, so then she went and bought me the z1000 via her insurance, nice lady. :wink:

[Oggyplonk]

dam it i should of tried that one. the bike sounds sweet dude i like them. i was looking at on ebefore the sv but the sv was on 0% finance cant sat no to that

[sexysi]

So is the z1000, just to make you sick. The book price for the z is £7,345. But I got a pre red (Jan 2006) bike @ 6k over 3 years on 0%. Biggest bike I have ever owned and it goes like stink. :wink:

[Oggyplonk]

rub it in my face why dont ya. i wasnt on 0% when i brought mine :x

[cyphertheory]

i sat at my computer trying to come up with a good quip against the z1000, and damn it i cant!.

it does look great in the black, and those blueflames will look sweet too!

[sexysi]

Maybe the next step up from an SV is a Z1000???
My mate across the road has a SV1000s. Now although it looks ok and all that, he has owned it for about 18months and put 18,000 miles on it.
The bolts,nuts and general alloy stuff all look tired. Ok the forks still look Ok, but on the near side of the engine block there is a join and this join is going rusty on the engine casing, Suzuki reckon they will replace the rusty casings, however it does seem worrying.
I was tempted to the SV1000 with the uprated engine, but after test riding the Z I chose that. I have always had a sv650s sk1's and I loved them, they are stonking bikes, for the money.
But i'm afraid to say I was never tempted to the new shape one. Just looked too small. :shock:
I only hope the Z stands up to commuting through winters. :?

yeah havin had the zuki thru one winter, they just rot away no matter how much you care for them, however i think i might have fz1 or a speed triple next but thats gonna be a few years down the line... :(

[lynw]

thats where youve gone wrong. just dont bother cleaning it... the salt goes onto grime and not the bike and no problems. :P :lol: :lol:

Well ok a few rusty bolts here but otherwise the bikes ok for two long hard winters riding daily. :D

[cyphertheory]

Gah! now i know where i went wrong, all that wd40 and ACF-50 was for nothin ;)

[Oggyplonk]
