It looks much betterer in Tenni clothing

I reckon it's probably the only silver frame Tenni on the planet. I can imagine the originality fetishists splintering their pipe stems in rage in fifty years time.
Oh, and those fucking shitty mirrors have to go. As the late lamented Todd Haven said of them, "Wail Sheet, when I sit on my chair at MPH on a quiet evening I can hear the goddamed things buzzing on the shelf!" Not only do they buzz but they rust! How the fuck can you make a plastic mirror rust?! Only in Mandello.

I had one vibrate apart and fall on the road while I watched!

I've got a pair of them black Aprilia mirrors if you want 'em.

If they are the Aprilia knock-offs, don't bother - I have seen them fall apart while riding. Genuine ones are more betterer.

Question of the day: What's Greem? Must be a crayola thing.
Heey....didn't I see a pic of that brighter greem one with a two-up "day-long" seat somewhere?

Well for one brief moment I thought I'd managed to pull a swifty on the motor registry as I managed to get a pre rego inspection cleared with no problems. Sadly when I went to actually register it it was red flagged on the system.
Great, big, monstrous, sweaty ARSE!
Never mind, it is what it is but it means it has to go back to Queensland and be registered for a whole year before I can bring it back. Even then before I can register it it has to have some special sodding inspection that costs the best part of $600. More Arse!
Never mind. I'll just nibble on the Little Book of Calm and live with it........
