    There wasn't any need to snip since I was responding to points you'd
    made.

    I note though that you've chosen not to respond so the only conclusion I
    can draw is that "learn to snip fuckwit" is the best you can manage.

  2. This seems a recurring theme around here at the moment. How long does
    it have to run until it becomes a meme?
    Would "Everybody out!" be considered a euphemism?

  3. Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Nige
    *Excellent*. He's playing the "You're not in charge!" card.
    *And* the "Look how reasonable I am!" one.
    There's the "IRL" one. All we need now is...
    YESSS!!!

    BINGO!

    What did I win?

    Another Enfield carcass, with a couple of rattles thrown in?

    I don't think there is a 'leader'.
    I'm aware of that.
    I'm being a **** towards you because I think you deserve it for punting
    out a bike in the way you did.
    You chose not to mention things you knew about the bike. You gave a
    false excuse for the reason you sold it. You sold it because you'd lost
    faith in it, not because you'd bought a fireblade. Further, you let
    people here believe that you'd "negotiated" it's return to BMW. Now,
    don't you think that sounds dishonest?
    I don't believe that there is a clique. If there is it's hardly
    something I'm in. I rarely see people on here these days.
    Who's trying to scare you? Bit dramatic, have you been drinking?

    Actually, you're partially right there. I have no say in how you
    conduct your life but once you start exposing parts of it here then
    commenting on your conduct is fair game.
    But your advert was misleading around your reason for sale.
    I thought it sounded like a bag of spanners. My concern was a
    mechanical issue, not a safety one.

    Nothing because since it was so 'sorted' they'd have been under no
    obligation to give you back your money.
    All in good time, all in good time.

  10. In one sense you are wrong and in another you are right. I have read
    your posts and am confident that it could not possibly be Des.

  11. Fucking right he ain't, the last time we had a vote we had a draw with
    all of us getting one vote each, 'cept for sir tony and his was spoiled.

    A practically new R1200GS - with more rattles than you've ever imagined
    in your wildest dreams?

    Seems like a Bitsa, I'm assuming you avoided it? which seems sensible. There
    are lots of detail differences between the 916 and 996.

    Item 120139935072 has all the goodies fitted and looks like an excellent
    bike for a little more than the bitsa sold for.
    Hmm I looked again and it even has Marchesini's fitted. WUN could have
    bought that and had a proper Yellow bike.

    He wasn't warning, he was asking. It's why he used a question mark I
    would've thought.

    Yes, the description wasn't clear, it was full of spelling mistakes
    (which made me think the owner was probably a fuckwit), plus the owner's
    reason for sale looked dodgy "bought 2 months ago as a project, selling
    because I'm moving the family to Spain". Oh, and he didn't answer my
    questions.
    Well, that one does look nice, but I want red or black. Plus I'm
    guessing it's got a reserve of >4,000 which is about a terms school fees
    for one of my brats... Probably won't go for that one. Probably.

  19. Rattles come free with Enfields. Along with bangs, creaks, groans and
    large bills.

    And puddles of oil.
