Four and a half Orange Twirls . What are we bidding for ? 

The bike Rob. 

I did not know it was on his profile. I saw it in his answer

make him an offer? 
 

I’ll start the bidding war:

two bags of quavers and a chomp 

Shame they will compete for google results with the Nursing midwifery council

@Six30 08 Plate 600rr, I assume that is cbr600rr. 

About as far as I can help is to agree, it is a Suzuki gsxr. 
the numbers often refer to how big the engine is by the way.

I thoroughly enjoyed buoyed my ride through the wind and the rain to work this morning. My clothes held up and any time on the bike is me time.

Thanks Keeper  

Would anybody like a biscuit? Perhaps a custard cream? Or one of those lovely ones that is a bit digestive biscuit but with a layer of caramel in? Dunk one of those in a cuppa and I am a very happy biker!

Hi gang, 

mad a part of my learning. When you are saying about the wear on the clutch basket do you mean where I have circled?

thise grooves/notches?

I bought my bike without a test ride ( I asked him to deliver figuring if he was not confident in the bike he would not.

everywhere I have seen is cash in hand or no test ride. 

My instructor seemed to know what he was doing but I had thought that too. I could not have cared less at the time, I had PASSED. 

Is that it?

I didn’t realise kiwi Bob would be so sensitive, I presumed this was a forum to share knowledge and get advice rather than creating friends 

It’s a bit like walking into a room and saying “I want this” without having said anything else to a group of people you don’t know. 
here is a great place to make friends and get help. I have had loads. If you were wanting to make friends you might start with something like:

hi I am Jeremy, came here because I am having a difficulty and hoping you can help.

some here will mind some won’t. You have a better chance of getting what you want with nice words

I am in back to back stuff from 8-5, I often have multiple meetings scheduled at the same time. The meetings account for roughly half of my responsibilities and all of my time. 
I had two weeks off recently and I have struggled since because I have recognised that my job is not doable

I dare not until I can afford it. I also need the speeding thing finished with. Maybe if I get the new job I applied for I could think about it next year.

I apologise for being a disappointment after all your help

Looks good Rob,  I’d have one in my lottery garage.

It’s the Zero SR/S electric  bike. Would be cool for my commute  save the wear and tear on the Zzr 

I quite fancy one of these too. 
 

Fantastic!

The practicalities are brutal

I don’t necessarily think it is Good looking but I didn’t half like the look of this when I was reading bike mags in the early nineties as a tweeny/teenager. 
I’d still choose to have one now in a lottery garage.

Still it really is shit.
