I have seen this bike in the flesh & can indeed confirm that it is in fact a quite slow silver one but for 20k bike it is really clean, well it wont be now it was raining when he came over on it! The Rear downpipes are rust free not much sign of road crap at all. It's been well looked after & probably can claim to be ''dry miles'' only, that is until Murv got hold of it.

A few niggles to sort out & important things to do, Tony's booked for CCT's already apparently, there are also some crap stickers to remove, Then spray it RED & jobs a good 'un.

Oh & Kev you & Murv should hook up, he can give you some rain dance lessons, he seems to be quite good at them.

You know I reckon I am quite good at the rain dance business, I should just have started it a day or two earlier. Who'd have thought rain dances suffer from two day time lapse, cause it hasn't ferkin stopped since then.

well you better bloody stop 2 days before i get back to blighty
i've got places to see and people to do, now that reminds me i've got to meet mac again....

I obviously didn't read the instructions properly Marty. I only did it once the night before the w/s day and now look. I think I should have done it clothed and without the sheep. Probably wouldn't have upset the rain gods so much then. I think the only way to appease the Gods is to sacrifice something unworthy of affection, oh I don't know, say something like a Red or Silver storm might do it. Although they are so cheap and nasty it might anger the Gods further!!!!

might aswell throw in a couple of yellow ones while your at it mate..........

How about the entire cast of The only way is Essex?

And Simon Cowell.

Certainly not. I have always thought Yellow to be a fine upstanding colour for a Storm, and certainly don't have any recollection of ever having mentioned anything negative about that wonderful hue. I may be in the debt of an owner of a yellow storm at present and certainly don't want to upset them.

Too little too late

I am expecting much more grovelling than that

The midlands is the cultural and industrial heart of this fair nation and has produced such perfect specimens as AMCQ46, who strides like a colossus over the forum providing us mere mortals with snippets of his God like knowledge. Come on throw me a bone I must be getting close!

I think your miles out Kev, isn't AMCQ46 from Scotchland originally?

Then again I could be wrong but Frank agrees with me so I must be right.

Still think more grovelling would be beneficial however, can't hurt can it.

Welcome Murv

That's just insulting, never say a Scotsman is English!! ......... I am deeply hurt and may have to reconsider my generous action

Ha Ha, stick it to him AMCQ!

I don't know that further grovelling now is really going to help, maybe throw in some penance, hot coals, broken glass that sort of thing, I was gonna add self flagellation to that list but I would guess that is already a pastime of Kevs what with having a blue one & all.

I think the only option left is for him to respray his bike pink
