Oh arse. Somebody *please* buy this before I do something stupid

Pah.

Lessee, now: exhaust, worth £150-200. Seat about the same. Tank,
panels... Nice new respoked wheels... All the little things tht you
can't find these days..

Oh, and the rack - a genuine 400 Four rack with decent chrome will fetch
close to a ton....

The new rear guard - ton and a half.

Sorry? You were saying?

 

Well a previous owner (no not me before you say anything) was putting
the engine together and had only the head to put back before it was
pointed out that one piston was the wrong was round. I presume it's a
runner now which is more than I can say for my Norton. Oh well, perhaps
this winter may see some progress.

 

CIHAGM?

Look, I'm not discussing this. It's just The Way It Is.

You can't be trusted, that's all there is to it.

I know you're disappointed, but you've brought this on yourself.

Here, have a Werther's.

You say the sweetest things.

I agree, I can barely get in the garage as it is.

Got a spare werthers mister?

 

I can. Just not to look after things.

Haven't <stomps foot> Wasn't my fault.

A big boy did it and ran away.

I'm not sucking anything of yours.

 

I'm sure we can discuss the nature of "appropriate" later.

If he hasn't, I'll find something.

I do? I do! I do!

Here, have this. It's sort of... like a Werther's.

.... and not expensive either, now.

Basically the same frame as the 125H but nearly double the power.
Almost as fast as the 3 1/2, smaller, lighter, with better fuel
consumption.

I've been after a decent one for a while but they're hard to find.

That's one way to reduce the number of the ill-handling, gutless piles
of poo on the road.
