Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick).
There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

On the bright side, I took my SV in for MOT yesterday evening, they just rang to say it's passed. 30 years of riding crap old bikes and I've never had an MOT failure yet.

When I bought my first house, I had to sell everything, including car and bike. I bought a £50 Datsun 100a in fudge yellow/brown. It was called the poo car, so I even had a plastic turd glued on the bonnet. It beat everyone at the lights due to the stealth smoke cloud, and handled funny due to having one 15" wheel and three 14". Stevie found nothing wrong with it, bless him.

Thankfully I got a lift.

I did collect the bike form the shop though, it felt weird coasting the 150 yards downhill to my house.

We had a local MOT place like that when I was younger, but there aren't any like that left. My SV is all A1, I wouldn't want it any other way.
