Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) @learningtofly bit off topic but Motolegends just sent out an email 30% off helmets. Might be worth ringing them and asking if they’ll still do that for you Wednesday and if not order the helmet online at the discounted price and take it back to the store on your appt day to switch it if it doesn’t fit. Edited November 28, 2020 by Slowlycatchymonkey Oh it’s not off topic it’s about the end of lockdown! 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, saw that, thank you. They've already price-matched the cheapest BF offer I could find and then undercut it by 10% so the deal I've got is a good one. They haven't actually discounted the one I've ordered in their own sale, either (just the black and red variant). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XTreme Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 No tattoos here.......cos you don't put a bumper sticker on a Mercedes! My style gurus have always been James Dean, Steve McQueen, and Paul Newman........so things like tattoos have no place being on my body. Now to me, This is The Style! It sums up everything what motorcycling should be about! A cool guy, a hot bird, and a great bike! Explain to me how having something written on your body matches that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Won’t be a popular opinion so I’m gonna say it and run- Steve McQueen might have looked cool but he was an ar*ehole wife beater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Well back in the in the day they were less likely to have a carefully cultivated public image destroyed by the internet. They only had to look good in photos and give the occasional pre-scripted interviews with friendly journos who won’t print anything detrimental so McQueens wife beating was never news and people got to carry on worshipping ie paying for their idols. I was gutted when I heard what an ultra right wing ahole John Wayne was but then I discovered in common with most right wingers he was a moron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was first at sea there were a lot of crusty old jolly jacks with tats that looked awful. A consequence of age and having them done in a back street tattooist in Singapore after a night on the lash. Fair put me off. Of course roughty toughty sailors are vanishing fast. I was cast into a slough of despond when I overheard my (male) second mate and an AB discussing the relative merits of various types of hairbands to wear under a safety helmet. What's even further psst a sell by date than gammon? Cos that's me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with ex partners is they are not always the most reliable, I could have served time and never been allowed to see my kids again if the court had believed a word from her, yes we ended up in court. Ahhhh I hear you say but that's just one, I had another who wanted me done too when it ended, she turned into a proper bunny boiler, I even had her mam threatening to stab me, luckily it was recorded on my answer machine. As for tattoo's I personally hate them and have told the wife, who has a small one, when I'm in charge of social cleansing I'm starting with the tattoo brigade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
