No it's usually preceded by the word "Loose" :)

As for pics, how about this, taken before the cans were cored and shortened.

Shvy lad, you prefer the silver frame ? Put that paint job on Andi but in the Italian tricolour ? Shhhwwweeeeetttttt
 
I prefer it myself, that's why I brought it.
The 2006/7 bikes are all mismatched gold colours on the Factory and I couldn't afford/justify a new one when I got it.
The only thing I miss is all the lovely carbon :)
 
Carbon don't make you go faster...

And yeah... I need to play with Paint to see if I can come up with a tricolour that makes me happy. With maybe a St Andrews Cross on the tank top.

*grin*
 
Now THAT'S what I call some nice bike ****. Thanks for sharing!! I'll be shopping fleabay this winter, so might pick up some CF bling for Andiamo. More for the purty value than anything else. Cuz is it REALLY worth the weight savings for punters like us?
 
It WOULD be lighter, but you would still be preceeding yourself by two feet everywhere you went. And not sure how the black would look on you, nobbo. Mebbe if you put some racing stickers on to look fast...
 
What about a carbon **** ????????????????????????
 
One day on the forum, and already a tail of woe (almost)

Went for a quick blast to clear the cobwebs and lost the front end on the Cat & Fiddle due to very damp slippery roads, managed to keep it upright with the help of my right boot and some quick reactions.
Came home and thought bugger it, the bikes going away for winter soon, so I'll clean all my kit up and found that the chin vent on my Aria Chaser was broken AGAIN !!
Even more pissed off by this point, so imagine how bad things got when I went to fetch the bike in through the gate and the N/S mirror came off in my hand

So the bike is inside now in digust and everyone in the house is avoiding me like the plague.
 
I'm sure, nobbie dearest, that your missus wouldn't mind it black, stiff, and preceeding you by two feet....

*evil grin*
 
Fecking hell lad. Tighten the mirror, use another lid, and go out right now for a rip to put the grin back on your face! Whene'er I have a ****** day, Andiamo becomes my Prozac my drink after work my Holy **** this is fun!! answer to all the ******** in my life. Please don't put her away mad. Put her away after a grand old time so that you are looking forward to the next time you can take her out!!!

The pisser is that I went for the blast to try and cure my already bad mood :(

... and the mirror has snapped clean off, so I reckon it may well be the excuse I need to fit some nice new shiny ones :)

My front went twice on me this morning in the damp going round a round about ,frickin near thing. Was only going slow. Not good is it.
 
I had slowed down by that point as the front had tried to go a few corners earlier, I reckon had I still been shifting on I would have hit the road, but luckilly I had enough sense/experience to calm down
 
2C and misting, trying to sleet here. I hear ya boys. Not going out today even though I have the gear for it. To depressing. Supposed to warm up a little later this week. Into the double digits. I'll wait 'til then. Sorry to hear about the mirror. Ae you sure it's snapped off as there aren't any threads on the T's mirrors. They are just pinched between the two bolts. I'm looking for some nice barends for Andiamo, as the L barend is rashed anyway.
 
It snapped off at the end of the metal stalk where the ball joint is. The plastic casing of the mirror snapped off.
My own fault as I should have pulled it in on the metal stalk :(
 
Feck. If I find some decent barend mirrors, I'll send you one of the stockers. Unless of course you plan on changing 'em anyway.
 
What tyres you on Canon ? Shvly won't know what they are cause they spell em wrong over dere
 
It's on Bridgestone BT015's at the minute, never normally have it out in the wet though as it's just my toy really, but I used to commute in allsorts of weathers so I know what I'm doing, it just scared me how easilly it tried to tuck.
