It just goes to show that none of us know what's around the corner! Just live for today!

So my direction has changed somewhat with the trackbike thing yes I started out looking at turning my old j1 ninja in to a trackbike but what with one thing or another I didn't get the time to complete the project so its up om ebay right now as I have secured myself an already prepared 2002 aprilia rsv mille which I will be picking up on Saturday from completelymotorcycles in Gloucester.....£1600 ebay auction which I thought a damned good deal for what it is!! I will soon be getting it to a nearby track to get acquainted with it and see what it is made of.....and fingers crossed not binning it on the first go!

if its in a van , need a pic .

Just had a call........it's being delivered to the house at 2.30 tomorrow afternoon!

Is the one he never got.

No word from the dealer today......wondering if they've found anything else that needs replacing? I'm quite happy for them to change the clutch if they want. Or the final drive. Or even the engine!

One last thing to do to the bike then. Oil and filter. Yamalube? I'm asking for trouble and probably a slipping clutch. But it was given to me (by some heathen step dad), so I'm not allowed to complain. Then off for one last shakedown run to South Leverton with a bunch of loons. That was my burger he's got his grubby mitts and gob round. Cooked by this gent. Plenty of onions please, and curry sauce. I liked the look of this yellow one, and I put plenty of it on the burger for a nose bending sensation. I should probably make a separate post for such an adventure really. Look at my bike gleaming in the overcast light: Oh wait, no. It was further along.

Found one of your previous pics I think I'll pass

Get the spill kit ready for its return.

I got the Frank Thomas gp qualifier one piece suit (black) no yellow to be seen there

Wichy Wossi ..... what you say @XTreme

we got a yellow pant wearing Rossi gay boy on board ....

Can you hear that? The sound of Juan Jesus Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso, working late as the shops delivery driver, falling asleep at the wheel, driving over the cliff, with the most perfect GS that ever was.

I would say so yes!

Worse than ferrying your road bike around in the back of your van then taking pics of it in said van in car parks or laybys??

I think he was 61

No but I do have a 46 lid....now can somebody source me some 'the doctor' leather patches for my frank Thomas race suit

You want my vids.....what kind of sick bastard are you pete....name a price

Condolences to Fred......and Ogris family.

RIP Ogri.. Obviously didn't know him though very sad to hear this news fred. Sorry for your loss and condolences to his family. Just think about all those memories and it will get you through.

Know that roundabout well, he wasn't the first although prob the highest.

The sad results of legalizing mrijuana are coming to light...lol

fortunately I have ear plugs at the ready. think I might need them both on and off the bike. Im virtually set and ready to start packing, kinda. sorta. ready-ish. just collecting the stuff I think I might need and then whittling that down to what is actually essential. Looks very much like a fine weekend for the run down to Austria. plenty of sun and warm all weekend and into next week. which is more than can be said for the Grossglockner.. where its pretty horrible today after a fair amount of snow fall last nigh!! Pity any poor fools who had today earmarked for a ride up there. .2c and awful visibility.

Well, this Joke created a civil war inside the Washington Post, it might be good. "Every girl is bi. You just have to figure out if its polar or sexual."

I’m in her hood at the moment, I’ll pop round and tell her @Six30 loves her and misses her

Remember them well, Dawn with her biking and walking stories, Ogri keeping that CCM going. Condolence to all close to them especially Dawn.

Oh no....Its so easy to die, its unexplainable we make it this far. Condolences from Connecticut.

Better we don't know though Clive. Live every day as if it's our last at our age! Why do you think I bought a GS?

He's a just dancing man Kathleen. This is exactly how a lot of the Irish roadworkers speak, they have a way with the words. When I asked one of them what their new supervisor was like he replied, 'Well I'll tell you. He's a grand fella..... but I wouldn't want to pay for his breakfast!' This was his polite way of saying he was signing off on the wages fairly but was also a fat bastard.

So, like Rossi on winter tests, then

Just like my mum, we were on holiday having a nice time, arrived home on the Saturday afternoon, by 2am Sunday morning she had passed away from a brain hemorrhage at 49 years old.............as @XTreme says, we have no idea what awaits us, or when.

just over £11 .. i nearly fell down

It was just an auction bid war but yeah good advice right there I'll be going over it with a fine tooth comb, give it a service and fluid changes before it gets unleashed

Rich, before you ride it make sure you go through everything on that bike even down to checking nuts and bolts . There's probably a good reason why it was a £1600 eBay bargain

Thats a great price for a T to be honest, sign me up if they have free shipping.

@Richzx6r if you need a dolly brolly , im always available.

back peddling now

Not even @Six30, whose standards are not exactly high, would humiliate himself by being a VR46 fanboy!

Have you bought a pair of VR46 pyjamas yet? What you reckon @Six30?

Pooky! I hope he’s well too. hey @modrover
