Got the new bike today

Right you have convinced me. I'm having one of 'em extendas. And a belly pan, and, oh I knew this would happen......

The last thing I need is an off cos of a bit of plastic- fell off my Virago 125 last year (when it wasn't moving, oh the shame) and ruptured my cruciate ligament, so need to be sensible.

Hmm. Thought I told you not to talk to other bikers?

Anyway, nice avatar!

Welll they were standing beside us on the road so I thought it only polite. I didn't believe anything he said though, obviously.

Heh, the worst injury I ever got on a bike was when I fell off my Virago 125 at 2mph after leaving the disc brake on, there must be something about those things. (hey, it's not W** RSC is it? Not many of these around any more, so there's got to be a fair chance you've got my old one...)

Hehehe!!! Good to hear someone else has done the silly stuff on it. Nope, mine's a T registration, love it. Must get around to selling it though, been sitting there unloved for ages.

Thanks! Unfortunately I'm having an operation on the 7th to clean debris out from my knee after a cruciate repair operation, so I won't make it. Just as well probably - I'd hold you all up!

I miss mine. Makes no sense since frankly it was a complete disaster for me, but it was great fun to ride, it was so light and so low you can ride it low speed like a trials bike

I'll let you know before I sell it and you are welcome to have a blast for old times sake - I'm in Glasgow.
