I have in my hand a piece of paper

  1. Well, two pieces actually.

    Got the GTR MOTd today (its first one), and decided that while I was on
    a roll, I'd get the Notrun done too. Two passes.

    The DVLA website's broken, of course, so I can't tax the fucking thing,
    but that can wait until Monday.

    I'll be taking the RGV for an MOT on Monday morning. Last task
    (hopefully) before it goes to its new home.

    And then it'll be shopping time.

    A sensible commuter. Not sure exactly what but current thinking is a
    something like a KTM LC4.

  5. I still kinda want one of those.

    Currently, though, top priority is a bike with realistic pillion
    capacity, but which is also still fun for me when alone. Any ideas?

    None whatsoever. It's never been one of my requirements. ZZR of some
    kind?

  10. Utterly unappealing. Actually, I was thinking of a Fazer Thou.

  15. Not sure the pillion accommodation really hits the mark. It certainly
    meets my second requirement, though.

    All things are relative, and in this case it's relative to. 14 year
    old stroker.

    You live in the land of Corbin, Sargeant & Russell saddles. Getting a
    more suitable pillion perch molished shouldn't be a problem.

    I have one of them in the garage at the moment - MOT'ing it for a
    friend. Similar in some ways to the Nordwest but a *lot* more oomph. It
    feels like it will bring the front up in every gear, but I'm much too
    much of a girl to try.
