This is just a short, post to say a massive thank you to buelllightening for his show of trust earlier today. Without knowing me from adam he was kind enough to lend me his bike for a long enough period for me to know I WANT one, but I'm either going to have to get platform boots or longer legs. As these 2 dont seem to be a realistic proposition my 3rd option is a 12xt which i am hoping i Should have within the next few weeks.

So Pete, if you are reading this thank you for being an all round good guy and for the advice you have given me. This also applies to the many others who have also offered test rides and advice.

I have to say the vibes at tickover were a wee bit surprising, but then I didnt buy a bike to sit still on it. keep your fingers crossed for me please all, with any luck I should have a bike within a few weeks.

Yeah, but I bet he wouldn't have lent it to Adam.

There's plenty of good people that hang around here, stick around and enjoy the Club.

Bought a 2008 plate xb12xt yesterday, Pete (the owner of said motorycle store ) told me on the phone he would hold it for me until i could get a few bits and pieces sorted out, so naturally I'm quite looking forward to picking it up as its a done deal. Phoned me this morning , in fact no he didnt he text me as he didnt wanna face talking to one mega pissed off customer,saying one of his "colleagues" sold it without knowing Pete had already sold it to me. What a bunch of cnts. Sorry about the language but im furious right now.

So in a nutshelll I appear to have NOT got myself a bike, so would you all mind keeping yer eyes peeled for me .

Ta very much..

You might as well name and shame them...

Anyway, they did you a favour cos you yourself said the bike had had a hard life.
