    I have always been happy when the assessor said, its a write off (on those 2
    occasions the bikes were less than 12 months old and I got my full new price
    back)

    Having said that it is clear you now have the necessary experience to move
    up to something that will command a little more respect out there on the
    road, may I show madam to our exclusive showroom where we have 2 nice 900cc
    Japanese Motorbycycles, a Red Honda CB900 Hornet for those who prefer their
    rides naked, and a Kawasaki GPz900R, a little Basic Black number for evening
    riding.

    Both bikes are very well suited for the vertically challenged.

    It was actually a Toyota Echo in Launceston.
    Weird little thing; like sitting on a kitchen chair perched on a
    pallet-jack!

    Mind you; I'm a regular passenger in gNat's Hyundai sCoupe so I'm quite
    used to folding into small spaces!

    I'm trying to be hard about it, but all this reminiscing is giving me
    some serious seller's remorse. :-(

    Keep it together Betty, I miss my GPX too, just a little. Looking
    forward to my xmas present though; we'll order it when we get up to
    Canberra.

    Isn't that more like, "Oh, the Sun didn't explode while I was asleep.
    What a great excuse to go out and buy another bike"?

  13. I was serious about selling off the hornet (mine's a 600 and black). I did
    enjoy riding a CX500 on my P's iin Canberra - but it had a balance problem
    and I couldn't pick it up.

  14. Errrmmm, I know you're the physicist, but isn't that _exactly_ what the
    sun did while you were asleep?

    ;-)

    big ("OMG, the Sun's exploding! I'd better go and buy another bike!")

    You need a better reason?

  16. Errmm... an explosion implies an uncontrolled expansion, the sun's
    expansion is controlled by gravity.

    The word you are looking for is 'fusing' I suspect :)

  17. Well, what would they call it if someone managed to start exactly the
    same reaction that occurred all of last night in the middle of the sun
    somewhere a little nearer (say, the Saudi oil fields, or in the remains
    of the World Trade Center)?

    What a fool. The sun isn't on at night or the ground would get hot from
    underneath!

  19. Well if you and I and Tim all stood near it... then fusing ;-)

    Well, the fusion in the centre region occurs because the Sun is trying
    to collapse under its own weight, so, in effect, the Sun is doing
    precisely the opposite of *ex*ploding... ;)
