This is what we want this weather

[Helen_86]

Like the horns

The bonus of that is that if you run out of petrol money, you could take the frame off, put a curtain around it and offer crystal ball readings from inside it! (There's something about it that reminds me of mystic fair stuff... maybe it's the tassles)

Or is that just me...?

[yorkie 1200]

Yeh its just you
hows it going with the job finding
found any walls that want rebuilding
Did you go beer festival

[Helen_86]

Ok, it's just me

The job search is currently quite uninspiring, I'm afraid! So I'm thinking of going off WWOOFing (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms). Hope to find lots of fallen down walls on a lovely small holding somewhere

Just looking at a 250cc Eliminator on eBay at the mo... the auction is less than 2 hours from ending, and the price is still looking good. I'm wondering whether it's worth my while going for it... hmmm...

Unfortutunately I wasn't able to make it to the beer festival (gutted!) as I was feeling a tad under the weather. Who ever heard of a hangover happening in advance?! Darn...

I think the bike looks ok low milage for the year
they will put 12mths mot on for you
its just the style of that back end doesent do much
for me
pillion seat dont look rite
but they are a good bike bin around for years parts are easy to come
by an cheap enuff to run tank not very big can only get couple of gallon in
so prob got a range of sixty to eighty miles
and iam baised towards cruisers anyway

my heads still aching from a wake i went to sat night

[Helen_86]

Yeah, I'm not mad-keen on the back end either, and I'd like it more if it had a back rest. But for the price... And I really need something bigger than my 125 now. I'm starting to go for over-takes that I want to do, but the bike can't always keep up with my aspirations!

Hope the 250 does more than sixty miles to the tank! Blimey, I'd be doing more filling than riding!

Wow, that wake must have been good! So how was the "small gathering" then? How many people made it?

[yorkie 1200]

if you can get it for less than 800 it will be a bargin
you can get back rest for it later
tankrange prob more towards 80 than 60

about 350-400 people turned up ad a good couple of bands on
got to meet some long lost friends yeah was a good night
john would ave bin chuffed so many people rememered him

[Helen_86]

The only problem really is that it's 36bhp and I'm still on my 33bhp license, so I'm not too sure what to do about that. I'd better decide quick tho as there's only 13 mins left! Hmmm...

Glad the wake went well

[yorkie 1200]

from what i can gather its only 27bhp

[Helen_86]

Are we looking at the same one?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=250136359391&rd=1&rd=1 That's the one I'm looking at and the guy on the phone thought it was 36? Where are you getting your info from?

[yorkie 1200]

same one
http://www.bikez.com
put asearch in for that bike it sez in the tech part 27bhp

[Helen_86]

*ahem* Just won the auction...

[rjh_786Bn]

Have you got a new bike?

[Helen_86]

Not got me hands on it yet... but soon...

I hope that the bhp is within my limit, that would be one less thing to do (one less thing to spend money on!)

Now... where am I gonna put it? Suppose I'd better set the ball rolling on my 125 sale...

[yorkie 1200]

whoooo- nice one D
