    In message
    It looks better than I imagined.

    I really think this Ebay description should be submitted to the editor
    of 'A Tutto Gas' for publication. Permission ?

    Super Sport?
    <cough, splutter>

    I so much prefer the terms minimal, or even visceral, to basic.

    Temperamental (even when new) is a tad harsh - capricious seems more apt
    for a mettlesome Italian steed.

    I still think you should get a decent 350 one day.

    Slitting your throat with a blunt piece of flint springs to mind

    I quite like it too.

    Just what I need, another SOB with the potential to break at any
    moment.

    I think i'm now officially out of space. Hey, statto, wanna come over
    and have a weekend super-fettle of that silver superdream with me, so I
    can make some space ? :)

    And how comes you blag the 'nice' coloured one, leaving me with 2 black
    ones ?

    Sure you don't fancy the red one, with 27 previous owners ? ;-)

    Free time is currently at a premium, as is garage space. I suppose I
    should sort some tuits out and start resurrecting the shite old GT.
    Sentimental, as well as mental reasons. Although I could be persuaded
    to take over one of the OTC ones.
    Er, from what I remember that was the most shedlike of them

  13. Blimey. It's still around?

    Hey, know what I unearthed in the garage this week? A tin of
    gen-you-wine Kawasaki touch-up paint for that colour GT750....

    Yours in exchange for a beer next time we meet.
