In the post today...

....from Messers Harley and Davidson, I got a "personal invitation to take a
free test ride on the multiple award-winning V-Rod".

"We're not talking about a normal test ride here. We're talking about an
experience that you won't find with any other motorcycle in the world".
Hmmmmmmmmm.

Anyone had a go on one?

Well, if you call them on 0870 366 6535 or go to www.v-rod.co.uk, who knows,
you may well be invited along too )

After a description of the colour variations it does say "The decision is
yours. But, whichever you choose, your style credentials remain impeccable"

You'll upset sir.tony you know.

 

New? But I though you'd always been gay?

 

Yes. It was rubbish. The Buell 12R, not that's a different kettle of
kippers

 

When I was round at Champ's last night he accused me of fitting an
overly gay accessory to the Harley and suggested that you ought to get
one too.

 

Nah, the V-Rod's a bit butch.

You need something with lots of tassles.

Well done with the weight loss, by the way.

 

bollocks - you might be gay, but you're not nearly fat enough any more
for a Harley.

"it's pure muscle, only more ornery than ever" according to the website

Sounds ideal for you.

For some reason I always think of Cane when that comes on the telly.

But it's my problem and I'll deal with it.

Sky 1 Sunday 10pm. You can find out just *how* gay apparently.

 

Yep,

Very nice, though not my kind of bike.
Superb engine, handles well, but shit consumption and range.
Very uncomfy for pillion on standard seat.
Drop it, and the footpeg rips out the frame!

 

Mine are too. The trouble is 30 waist jeans are still too tight.

I might get back into 30's once I start working on the excersise thing
properly, but I'll add weight doing so.

Yep. I got the same invitation 2 years ago ;-)

I got there to ride it and the bloke before was 25 minutes late back so
they let me have it for 2 hours

 

That's what I was finking. I don't particularly like HD's but hey, a couple
of hours of free hooning is not to be refused.

And if you can forget you're a proper biker, you can actually have a lot
of fun.

You get a lot of admiring glances and you can pose around as if you've
got £15,000 to spend on a bike.

I used over half a tank in that two hours
