Well, i finally went shopping for a bike, i trawled all the majors including Triumph, Kawasaki, Suzuki etc, but, settled for the American Dream of a Harley :Whistle:
The roads around here are far too straight and no fun to be had at all on a twisty road.

I even got a speeding ticket on Saturday during the test ride :idea: :lol: i get to go to a driver school and get off with the points :thumbs up:

Mars bar to anyone who can guess the exact model :cool:

Very smart, Like the black look.
Always fancied an Exile cycle as they have the same dropped down blacked out look.

God Damnit you beat me too it! I was gonna say, the mower looks awsome! We used to have a Gator flatbed 4x4 at work and used to fly around the massive gardens in it, was awsome fun!
