    Arranged to view a bike tomorrow...Fella said that suited him better than today, then phoned this evening to tell me it was sold...not happy but not surprised either....seems to be the way people operate nowadays.....Not much integrity about

    I accept it....'bird in the hand' and all that......

    Anyway.....probably blows my chance of the National.

    I'm not done yet though.....
    This one finishes in 5 hours, could be nice and cheap

    I'll have declare myself a non runner at this event......Unlikey that I'm gonna make it now unless I have rush of blood and leap on the Alp (possible).

    I believe also that Steve (Devonne) also has had bike problems....(dead starter button if anyone wants to pm him...already mentioned side stand switch to him).

    I suspect Soho won't be leaving at this time from here also but who knows..he's like the Scarlet Pimpernel...

    P.S. I DID leave a 'sell me this ' note on a 'T' reg black @ tonight in the West End (It doesn't seem to move much).

    Is this a fat lady singing?

    If it is the one in Margaret street then it only disappears from there a couple of times a week.
    YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

    Yeah...It is that one...I know it doesn't get out much. [EDIT; Fella emailed me.....nice of him.....not for sale..pointed him to forum]

    There's another one in Belgravia (must be as posh as me)....All tarted up with stickers, lagging on the crash bars and Italian flag sticker......NO NUMBER PLATE, although it does seem to change parking bays regularly, so seems to be used......someone on here.....
