Fook knows
Is ****.
Its been a month now since the fork crack disaster. After just 1 week Piaggio sent the R/Centre a fork but it was scratched so they sent it back, quite rightly. Anyroad, with Aprilia's customer service being a tad ***** and after last years 6 week off road due to the wheel buckle disaster me nappers been wandering. Today I got told another fork was landing next week, she actually said 'them', so maybe I'm getting 2 so the colour's match correct but I doubt it and it was probably just a slip on the girlies behalf but who knows???

Before I got this phone call I was ****** jarred off with it and actually rang a Ducati dealer to see if they had a test ride on a Fechter and Monster yesterday. But none available till late next week. Then I started thinking, '**** it, I'm having a Speed Triple'. While I was perusing the Trumpit website I actually thought I could see myself on one of them cruiser jobbies. Open lid, shades on and bandana blowing in the breeze. Last night Mrs End even said, 'fuks up Nob, you look more depressed than usual'. So I told her how I was pine'ing? for me T and she even said '****** ell just get that ****** V4'. She cusses a fair bit does Mrs End.
I thought, 'fugg it, yeah I'll get one'. Then I sniftered myself in to oblivion. Last night I dreamdeded of a Ducati Drivel I was looking at at the Farmyard ffs. When I got up this morning, without a semi on for some strange reason I went in the back garden with a brew and there it was just ****** sitting there, useless,,,,,,,,,so I told her to make some toast :D . Then I saw the Foono and thought, 'thank **** fot Foono'. Again.
I sat down and remembereded what I'd been thinking about the day before, about Fechters, Triumphs and ffs even an MV. This afternoon I was even on BikeTrader looking at all sorts of ****. Then I got my phone call :)
Telling you, life without your T is *****, you go potty.

yer seriously looking fer a feckin slap her nobber
 
Happy ending then Nob?
You were'nt really looking at Sheetfarters and Munters were ya?:eek :eek :eek
As for that Drivel,....:puke
 
Man...I know just how you feel.....mine's been up on the blocks for a month now....minus it's forks.....:banghead

I go in the shed every now and then and visualise myself riding it...just to keep me motivated enough to keep the ******* thing...:banghead
Mrs End sounds very much like Mrs Tifa...she keeps telling me to get another bike.
The thing is Nob, feeling like I do, I couldn't bring myself to buy anything made by Piaggio on principle....and I too have been looking at strumpets...but I draw the line at Diabolicals and bandana's (Mrs Tifa says I look gay enough without that ****) :lol

Anyhoo's...praise th' Lord for the old Honda I'm hacking about on...2002 900Hornet...25,000 trouble free miles....totally thrashed, but she just takes it without complaint......bit like a girl I used to know(those were the days....I can hardy remember her name...but by those were definately the days!! )

Right.... off to the supermarket....I feel the need for a bottle (or two) of plonk...:yes

Over & out :crazy
 
I had to go up to our actual office yesterday, so I went on the Tuono.

First time back out on it since I got back from Spain, still got the stock cans on.

On the run back I caught up with a guy on a Ducati monster, he was riding Ok so I wasn't bothered about passing. Then he went all hesitant on a roundabout so I stuck the Tuono up his inside and he tried racing me, he did quite well, almost keeping up but as I snicked her into top at about 130-something he wasn't up for it any more, and I steadily pulled away as we wound our way down one of my mate Windy's fave bits of road out of Goole.

You forget just how ferkin much fun these bikes are. V4? Fechter? Feck off.

I am perfectly happy with my Factory.

If they let me down next week,,,,,,,, ****** ell I don't know what I'll do. Bummer is I've had 2 crackin weekends away up Nesboland and it grates me because I spent a load getting it fettled, what with the tyres, Airsquark, screen etc. And me new cans ffs. The Foono was amazing but it ain't no T.
Hopefully we get an Indian, not real ones coz we've got enough of them, summer and I get another crack at Jockoland on it.
 
Streetfighter ??


A faired one thats been binned and it`s cheaper to stick flat bars and twin spots on than pay for all the plastic.


They look good though.
