paging 9R owners

Cheese.

A jackup kit will be on the cards, methinks, as will a Scottoiler and
therefore a nice black rear wheel in short order.

 

Cheers, fella. I would have bought a black one if such had been
available at the time, of course. As to the mendicant's options, they
are indeed limited.

Ah, well, you see: black Baglux covers seem to go for >80% of the new
price, which seems to me to be taking the piss somewhat.

So I bought the cheapest one I could find[0], with a view to getting some
shoe dye to make it black, which I've seen done before quite successfully.

Except, before that actually happened, the Bandit magically transformed
into a shiny ZX-9R. **** knows how that happened, but I'm trying not to
think about it too much.

So, if anybody wants the cover, it's up for grabs at a reasonable price
until I get around to punting it out on eBay, along with the Art can.


[0] It's actually that yucky light blue/green colour, not the dark
green, which probably explains its inexpensiveness.

 

Is it for a pre- or post-2000 model? ISTR it's the older type, in
which case Pip is up for it, otherwise let's open negotiations...

 

It's for a pre-2K, but I'm not sure if Pip really wants it, given the
colour...

 

It's not often one sees the term "slave to fashion" used in a post
directed at Pip.

 

Frankly, I'm a little shocked. Mildly perturbed too, now you mention
it - just because the rest of the world seems to have caught on to the
One True Colour ... I can see a set of green and gold leathers coming
soon.

Nice, wich one? I've not been keeping up.

MY triumph is a lot smoother than the 9R. Although after doing the carb
balence thing it's alot better.

You think there'll be a Renaissance in the use of brightly coloured
leathers?

 

Welcome back.

Have you bought a white van detector?

 

I'm sure mine doesn't have the same effect on me, even if I am a blerk.
Which model is yours?

 

Sooo, what's he gone and bought, then?

I thought it was a bit of both, on this occassion, and was rather
hoping for an amusing cascade. Spoilsport.
