but I thought you followed Sheffield Wednesday. I never said I'd talk about the Wednesday

Well he's got 400+ positive feedback. But why does he want one with a v5 ? Has he been having hassle and wants to pass it on to some one else to have the hassle ?

No Christmas shopping here Been walking the Dogs around Chatsworth for about 3 hours. Got back bathed them ( they were filthy) really enjoyed it. A bit if lunch, now chill axing watching an old film.

Ain't that just typical my youngest daughter has bought me a nice blue tax disc holder for Christmas

Bloody Black Ice. My Mrs managed to go 200 yards @ 5 -30 this morning before parking her car in the side of a neighbours car. No one hurt that's the main thing.

The Difference between Completeand Finished No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between those two words. In a recently held linguistic competition held in London, England, attended by the best in the world, Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese man from Bachelors Adventure was the clear winner with a standing ovation lasting over five minutes. Here is his answer which won him a trip to travel the world in style and a case of 25 year old Eldorado rum for his answer. The question was this. How do you explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand? Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED. Here is Mr. Balgobin’s astute answer: "When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE. And when you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED. And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!"

Pass me a beer If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have £49.00 today If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in AIG insurance company one year ago, you would have £33.00 today. If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers five years ago, you would have nothing today. If you had purchased £1,000 of shares in Northern Rock three years ago, you would have nothing today But, if you had purchased £1,000 worth of beer one year ago at Tesco's, drunk all the beer, then taken the aluminium cans to the scrap metal dealer, you would have received £214.00. Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. A recent study found that the average Briton walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that Britons drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Britons get about 41 miles to the gallon! Makes you proud to be British.

This pic shows why I love riding abroad. Riding on the right makes it much cooler to do this with your clutch hand. Were as riding on the left like we do you feel like a nodding dog some days.

A Scottish Soldier in full dress uniform marches into a chemist shop. Very carefully he opens his sporran and pulls out a neatly folded cotton bandana, unfolds it to reveal a smaller silk square handkerchief, which he also unfolds to reveal a condom. The condom has a number of patches on it. The chemist holds it up and eyes it critically. "How much to repair it?" the Scot asks the chemist. "Six pence," says the chemist. "How much for a new one?" "Ten pence" says the chemist. The Scot painstakingly folds the condom into the silk square handkerchief and the cotton bandana, replaces it carefully in his sporran and marches out of the door, shoulders back and kilt swinging. A moment or two later the chemist hears a great shout go up outside, followed by an even greater shout. The Scottish soldier marches back into the chemist and addresses the proprietor, this time with a grin on his face. "The regiment has taken a vote," he says. "We'll have a new one.

Isn't it lovely to have this problem of choice . Enjoy playing the dealers and the experience of picking your next Ride. There's no better feeling

I know you do Dave some like big Arses some like big T@ts Would be boring if we all liked the same My mate has a black King with Black Yoshis on not for power or sound just for looks and IMO transforms the look of the bike. Up at CMC Clay cross they have a white low mileage one with Laser pipes .. They are 4 shotgun high polished pipes can't have been cheap but they look the db's. It was on Evilbay might be worth having a look. Oh sorry about the pint now your on the wagon

My 2 penneth and obviously nowt to do with me. Out of those 2 I'd defiantly go for the Triumph. But if you want a powerfull Naked. Power for Pound I would say find a low mileage Bking if you can get past the looks and ditch the end cans. If you test ride one of these I think you'll be amazed. Only my opinion mind

Does my ARSE look big in this ? Now be truthfull honey

I don't know if you've owned an Italian V2 before but here's a little story. My mate really fancied something different something "exotic" Or was it erotic ?( cant remember getting old). So at the back end of last year he swapped his CB1300 which he'd had for about 6 years, ( before that he'd mostly had big 4 cyl sports bikes ),for a mint low mileage Aprilia Tuono Factory. He spent the winter putting £700 end cans and got a map 2 installed +all sorts of lovely goodies on it. ( It looked the dogs doo dass) When the weather changed and he finally got to ride it he lasted 3 months with it. It was fast and got a lot of attention whenever parked up. He just couldn't get over the feeling it was VERY Fragile and was at some point going to let him down. He went and swapped it for a BKING in Black with less than 1k miles on it. The power difference is incredible in his words, he knows its going to be a keeper and he's so glad he's gone back to a big 4 that he has complete confidence in. If you only have one bike and your looking for a keeper the Tuono may just be your cup of Tea. My mate payed a lot out to find out it wasn't his. Enjoy your test ride Sunday hope the weather stays fine for you.
