Re: It's time for another Cornish bike change....
I like moose-knuckle.
There's a girl who works in a sandwich shop near my uncles house who has one of those trendy thigh gaps (basically needs a good meal everyday, skinny bitch) and wears yoga pants and her minge looks like it's been arranged with a spirit level. It's a proper horizontal surface. If she did a handstand you could balance a ball on it and it wouldn't move, there's no tilt either way.

Re: It's time for another Cornish bike change....
Sorry guys and girls, life took over again for a bit, yet I'm back.
So, the RnineT, man, it's suiting my life at the moment as only seem to use it for committing really with the occasional meet up with the biker boys.
No new additions to it, bar a discrete pannier for laptop etc. yet thinking about going to stubby look by removing part of the sub-frame which the bike was designed for anyhow.
Saying that, last year (I know I've had it a whole year guys!!!) they replaced the rear sub-frame due to some rust spots, all was well, then abut 3 months ago i noticed a small amount of paint bubbling on the drive shaft top up bolt. BMW had a look and it's being replace under warranty, seems a bit extreme though, why not rub it down and respray instead of a whole new drive shaft assembly, baffling. Now the rear sub-frame is showing spots of rust again, so I'll mention that and get it sorted when they do the drive shaft next month.
I've been clearing out the bike cupboard again and will pop some leathers, jeans, panniers and gloves up on the Market Place over the coming weeks, usual "Cornish deal prices"...Kwacky nothing green buddy sorry.

How does the Versy compare with the SX Kwacky?
I imagine it's lighter and nimbler

Re: It's time for another Cornish bike change....
Well hello chaps, its been too long!
I'm still riding the R90, I know, I must love this bike as i've had it for 2.5 years now :-).
Still enjoying every outing on it, even through the winter months, (although a lot less since getting a dog), and have made a few mods since being knocked off it last year by a tractor reversing into me (long story don't ask). I've added a side mounted number plate holder which opens up the view on the rear tyre so much more and added a shock sock to keep the grime off it.
Apart from that, another set of tyres and lots of black lines around bends, all is well.
Now i just have to get another bike past the misses....:-).
