yup, its all over, after 4 years in and around my possesion

my brother took delivery of it this christmas, after me and dad spent a mint getting it back to standard, new exhaust, tyres, service items etc

my bro has managed to kill the rear bearings, do something to the electrics, and fuck the clutch, and it keeps cutting out and leaving him stranded places Rolling Eyes

funny, i never had these problems, and ive ridden it from london to portsmouth and back, and also back from worcester, and about 15 000 other trouble free km's

anyway, cant be bitter, but i didnt know today was the last time i would see it, came back from golf, and it had been traded...for a yamaha aerox Thumbs Down

the ultimate chav machine Neutral

so, end of an era, R.I.P SR50

That pulled on my heart strings. Sad

My ped is being passed over to new owner this weekend as well. End of an era. Hope she doesn't break it. Praying
