Shes hooooooooome :-D :-D :-D
 
I went to see a 2 wheel motorcycle tonight straight after work. Anyone hazard a guess from my previous postal dribblings over the years?

Nice little tale about it all as well :-)

To make things double good, my dad also gave me a set of 1 piece leathers as he doesn't use them. He got himself a 2 piece set and has only worn the 1 piece a few times so they are like new. Riding home on the bike in my new leathers with hump, with textile jacket over the top, textile trousers and jumper in my bag, was a little "tight" in movement :lol:

Muchos pleased :D :smt041

Indeedy so :D I pick her up saturday hopefully. And now the freaky parts...

Ironically, its actually my Dads OLD Tornado. He sold it last year for his MV Augusta, and its come back up for sale with only a few hundred miles more on the clock. It came up on Ebay, my old man emailed me it, so I rang him.

I know the history, all the parts, it has some carbon goodies, the titanium exhaust I wanted (so most of the aftermarket parts I want), and its up for £1k less than daddy sold it for, but saving me £1k of modifications. Dad had not given him the specific Benelli cover and was saving it for me when I got one, but its going back on the same bike :lol:

Last year. I'll get some funky shots when shes back in the family.

I've muttered on and on and on about getting one, so to have my dads old bike, at a fantastic price as well, has made my day :) Im still bouncing everywhere

Standard piccy yeah? My Bandit, my new Benelli, and dads LE. Whats freaky is that the guy on the right, is the bloke i've just bought it from. I took this when he came over to look at her. Tonight he was wearing those trainers, black jeans, and a white t-shirt.......
