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. 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.
Feel really sorry for yer Nob thats one reason why you should always have a back up steed inn the shed. & a good answer when anybody asks you why youe need two bikes. (at least.)
It must be really heart breaking to see the summer slipping away before your eyes. i had a great week so far 250miles on Wednesday. Then over to Griffs in Tamworth today.(Dual carriageway but still out on the bike.) Clocked 141 twice on the toll road. Got me a set of rear sets & he teeked me suspension.
Now just looking forward to the next two days fudding around Taffyland with stix & co.
