Seems I'm a bit of a collector ?
A friend of mine popped round this morning, last vist he brought me a model TT600 (just to rub it in I'm sure
 ), and today he brought me this Not quite right, but I got the message from the big cheesy grin  anyway, I thought I've got a few of these kicking about now (it's the old buy him a model motorbike, he'll love that,syndrome, I think.) so sorted them out, seems it's a bit of a collection  Anyone else ended up with something like that? Cheers Mark.

Re: Seems I'm a bit of a collector ?
Before I got married I used to build the Tamiya model bikes, I have over thirty. They are boxed up in the loft and have made three loft moves since being crated. I daren't look as the box rattles.
Never let family know know you collect something ornamental, you'll solve their Christmas and Birthday present dilemmas, but after 10 years you're run out of ways to say "that's what I always wanted". |

Re: Seems I'm a bit of a collector ?
I'd love if there was an SV kit... I'd be down the shops getting a pile of them, and a couple of GSXR kits, and building wee models of mine in all its versions, because I'm that cool.

 But never seen a curvy, which is strange as I would have thought they would have made the best shape  But if you look closely you'll see the model speedtriple has been several colours as I try them out on the model first. Cheers Mark.

Sitting here with a smile on my face thinking of Northy experimenting with the various combinations he can make with his models before he turns them into "real life" versions
