    going to see it again tomorrow morning, will see if i can try and get photo's that show the colour properly.

    also i have some pics from morgan park, got a big thumbs up from the marshalls after pulling out a four wheel drift under the bridge.. maybe they thought i was grinning (actually probably screaming).

    We, us and the gang (well, my, my mate on his scooter and some others in a car) went through the Royal National Park down to the Scarborough pub today. The nice cool weather really suited the beastie, so I was able to push it along nicely. On the way back some guys on hard-tails roared up behind me and passed.. so I tailed them for a while. That was fun.

    You don't.

    Seriously, just WALK AWAY.

    The Indian Enfields copied all the worst of the original and then used Indian quality steel to make it. THe UK imports I've seen have been lucky to see a year before the Chrome disappears completely

    You can get a fully restored ORIGINAL Enfield for less than HALF the price of this travesty.

    ROFL ... nice once.
    Ever wondered why all those british bike manufacturers started out ( and continued ) as arms makers ? Was it coz the bikes went like bullets ?
    NO. Was because they would go BANG at any time

    I'm doing it haphazardly buy Buyers for the Lolvo are being lined up.

    That CRX is mighty, MIGHTY tempting.

    On another note, insurance is ridiculous. I am NOT paying $1785/yr for Comprehensive. Fk you, JustCar.

    on a $4k Volvo, no Less.

    Cheapest Comprehensive quote I could get was $915 with a $4k excess...Kind of defeating the purpose...

    Oh well, 3rd Party, Fire & Theft from AAMI it is again then...

    I'm under 25 - they won't even touch me.

    I should probably start looking at quotes for the CRX...

    EDIT: It's ~ $388/yr for the CRX. My Volvo is ~ $430 on the same policy. WTF.
