a twin-pot wine rack aint a lot of use ( or ornament )

I would like it to stripe it down and make a cross sectional ornament...

I could collect.

same thing you do with the broken Landrover engine parked on the drive......throw it in the nearest canal

Nope....honestly? My Original SV engine is under the stairs covered up....just in case it ever gets fixed. I might play with it one day...I seem to remember changing the cylinder head on it once, with guidance by the YC specialist garage of doom!

Cut it in half down the middle (somehow) and polish it up. Educational v-twin ornament

Dave20046 · 12-11-09, 08:06 PM

p.s I'll take the other half

Coffee table is good but I'll still give you 10 quid n postage for your CCT's

I also like the throw it at a chav idea. So after you have sent me the CCT's strip it down and throw each bit at a time at one or more chavs increasing the pleasure

Only ever heard bad things about Jordans, never used them myself.

I do know of a really good garage for Sv's though. He has a race team that uses the SV.
HB Motorcycles, its near the ASDA in Dewsbury.

I hope Jordans $hit a hedgehog.

Had my bike dyno'd there, and on the second run after I'd changed some jets over they must have sent the YTS lad out or soemthing because he literally pressed "start" and did the full wide open throttle run. NOT AMUSED.

I can swap an engine for you nay bother if you bring me bike/pay my mate to come and get it.

Obvious can't guarantee you won't buy a knackered engine, but neither can dealer.

Sell it to me. Always after tearing broken engines down to see what's gone wrong.
