When Jenn rolled the freelander the other week she was told that she could have a courtesy car while hers was being repaired but not if it was written off.

Were still waiting to get an offer now nearly a month later

Good job I was in a position to replace the car (its always worth reading the small print).

When the fiffer was written off I had the pleasure of a brand new SV1000 for 3 months while the inurance forgot about me
At the end on the hire period the bike had cost the insurance over £10,000, I was given £2000 for mine, yep, insane figures.
Even worse, I bought the bike back for £440, spent £20 to get it through the MOT and I'm still riding it now

I still can't believe it

I have booked a test ride on the new 1200 viffer. I'm only doing it to find out what they are really like, it's just not my thing at this point in time

Two problems they need to sort out;

1. Price. If i'm spending that much I'de be seen on a 1098

2. Tank range. It effectively renders the bike useless

Sort them out and in a couple of years I might consider one if they drop in value!

Untill then i'll keep thashing me viffer till it's bost

Finally got some new boots so was able to reach the floor from a Aprilla Dorsoduro, well, I can put one foot on the floor if i lean the bike over enough. But still I test rode it earlier today, its amazing I want one, now wheres the bank of mom and dad, they are offering £1,500 for a 2000 curvy with 19K on which sounds good, but im also going to America this summer so i will be selling sv in June and buying in Aug/Sept. Them 3 power settings will be useful, only down side is the front wheel is too light down the M5 for the high speed test I wasnt able to keep it on the ground much.

Can someone lend me the outstanding £5,000 I need?
