Yeah, well i went and did it...after christ knows how long of kicking the idea around it all ended up happening within 24hours...spotted it, viewed it, bought it..deposit paid and awaiting collection. she's a beauty..always wanted a tric to sit beside my beloved 'going to the grave with me' 916...i feel like a 6 year old on christmas eve.... i'll post pics and give more details when she's in my sweaty clutches... happy days!!
the prices have dropped..i let it slip that ive moved into Meguiars..(im actually using ultimate compound on the original screen as i type..no, im not joking..)...damn micro swirls that only be seen in certain lights at certain angels....do my bloody suede in.... I brought a few bits back last night...original screen, cans, ecu, paddock stand etc and have been having fun getting quotes..bloody annoying coz im gonna have to cancel my current policy and its only got a couple of months before i clock up another years NCB...ive only got 3, but because i pissed about cancelling when i bought the MV blah blah ive only built 3 years in the last 7 or 8...sodding insurance... Anyway, that will be out of the window when the bitch is tucked up next her sister!!!
amazing how many 916 owners consider them 'going to the grave with me' bikes. I share your love brother.
cheers booty...yeah, my 916 is an utter, utter keeper...even after all these years i learn more and more every time i swing a leg over her..i still gaze lovingly at the old girl...today i showed a couple of ppl a pic of bella the bitch on my phone, and no one could get their head around the fact that she was nearly 20! im so fkn excited about picking up this tric...i had to put some toilet roll in the front of my pants....just kept wanting a wee all day...my OCD is kicking in big time...i NEED to polish, i NEED to clean..fekk riding the thing...
dont worry about that love..i'll be posting a few pics as soon as ive wiped a dish cloth over her... i suspect the 1098 and 916 will be lezzing off when my back is turned...
