Well took the little man to the park he minds his own business and mrs must socialise dahling abandons her kids who then start stomping mud all over the swings to which she shouts across poppet you're going to make that swing all wet and muddy aren't you?
Yes mum
Ok sweetie
Try wiping the fekker then oh and when she falls off its your problem and take the fekkin dog out of the play area before launch the overgrown rat out on the end if my boot!
Then try a walk into town except you have to take the pushchair round off the path as all the fekkin dog owners have congregated in the path surrounded by feuding canines all off the lead so they can crap anywhere

No don't worry says I ... It's a transformer pushchair it turns into an off roader whenever it sees a bunch of rude inconsiderate selfish morons
Social issues moi?

Out all morning on the bike, met some very nice people, (aye oop Mark lol) pissed about a bit on the way back with a geezer on a big KTM thingy which was fun. Got home minutes before hurricane Horrace arrived, firkin awesome!

How ironic I log on here out of boredom when the famo's watching X factor. That's what really annoys me, the absolute wankfest that is X factor. At least Eurosport was showing bsb replay last week from brands

Following a car today and out the window comes a half drunk McDonald's drink spattering all over the road . Come to some traffic lights and she is drinking another one... On dual carriage way pass her and then pull back into slow lane. She obviously can't keep constant speed and passes back, I look over and she isn't paying a blind bit of notice to what's infront and is busy looking at her passenger seat munching on fries.

For the avoidance of doubt I have no issue with most dogs I mean I've dated ... Never mind that... It's the irresponsible owners that should be made to spend a week licking dog turd of the park and or being bitten by "they're only friendly" diseased rats

we've got a German Shepard but he's not quick enough although he’d definitely have it if he could get near enough, but your right Jack Russell or a Border Terrier would do the trick, although I think it's probably easier to borrow a air rifle and wait for the little ba$$ard to show it's face.

What's annoyed me today? Bikes pulling wheelies in busy traffic, getting a mate to film their "skill" and posting it on social media. Ive got no issues with wheelies, stoppies or any suchlike bike handling skills but there's a time and a place for all this isn't there? Or is it just cos I'm getting old. We have all seen the vids of the carnage when a "stunt" goes wrong. I bet those blokes  had pulled the tricks off perfectly hundreds of times before but on that one time.......

I guess my issues are two fold:

Pulling wheelies in busy traffic puts other innocents at risk.

Your average person watching this vid has a little more ammunition to  think all bike riders are the same and in their view this makes us all twats.

And no, I'm not jealous cos I cant hoik a minger.

didnt have the heart to say,so just said its nice and loud.
the vance and hines straight through pipes cost £1300 ffs!
then the stage 1 tune was £800 plus air filter cone then the price of bike.


its a forty eight or something.looks as uncomfortable as hell but draws loads of looks for some reason,even at the sports bike shop car parks.

so i guess thats annoyed me lol ive lost my brother,our rides will never be the same.
 
I like yourself and most others used to mock HDs until a mate of mine loaned me his 48 with V&H short shots and stage 1
what a hoot, I loved the grunt and was very surprised at how well it handled
I would buy one tomorrow but only as a second bike for chill out rides

its pretty well suited with its grunt for whizzing through traffic ect
just not my cuppa tea is all pal.

They do have an appeal but couldn't be the only bike in the garage - yet!

Mate bought a V-Rod after a succession of Fireblades to try something different. Sounded great with V&H slash cuts and he enjoyed the more relaxed riding experience and reduced body ache but in the end I think the change was too extreme and something like a Tuono would have suited better. He doesn't have a bike at all now.

ITS THE 1200 bud.

the 48 refers to the gi's coming home from ww2 iirc in 1948
when they all jumped on harleys or joined bike gangs ect.

it now has a side black and silver numberplate.it swivels out of the way,handy for more reasons than one lol
