As some of you may recall, I'm currently bikeless.

Well, no more, got myself an absolute steal this evening, suitable for a man of my considerable biking knowledge and skill:

Most importantly, it gets the Harry B seal of approval:

***UPDATE***

Well, that didn't last long. I was attempting to negotiate a tricky off-camber bend between the hall and the living room, got on the gas a bit too early and highsided badly*.

I'm ok, but the bike looks like a write-off. Front end has been ripped off completely, fairings demolished. Subframe is definitely twisted too.

Crying or Very sad

If anyone is looking for a cheap project, PM me, but frankly I think it's beyond repair and useful for scrap parts only.


* Actually, that's a lie. My daughter sat on it. Still, at least I've got something to do tonight.

You want a picture of my 12 year old daughter's arse?? Exactly what kind of sicko are you?

Shocked

Actually, you're on BCF, I know exactly what kind of sicko you are.
(I'm still not going to post pics of it though)
