    To judge from the auction and the seller, there'sll be problems a-
    plenty.

    Good points - it's a late one with separate oiling. Bad points - still
    has the odd gearshift pattern and, like I said, be prepared for a lot
    of fixing-up. £500 was a lot of money to pay, IMHO.

    "customised : mirrors" i.e. there fucking aren't any!

    I like the other item he's sold recently.

    I was just wondering about that. Also - is it really a shaftie?

    My daughter was 16 a couple of months ago and has shown no interest in
    motorbikes. At. All.

    This is the nearest she came to showing any enthusiasm:

    Maybe not ;) Must admit I'm just looking forward to tinkering :) It's been
    ages since I tinkered with a stroker.

    I'm surprised you've got away with this.

    or the Internet version:

    I just showed the picture to Laura. "Ooh. Hello..." in a very Terry-Thomas
    style.

    I won't post links to pics of my kids, but they are out there if you
    know where to look. All three of my girls are over 16 now - I'm scared.
