I didn't have my scooter the chances are I would have bought this.
I would have bid up to £1500.

You should have bought it regardless. A person can't have too many m/cycles. I read that somewhere.

I was watching that one and it wasn't a bad price going by the pics, considering a total sh1t heap went for 620 the week before, some bloody silly prices lately for T/GT's in the UK

Rack who mention Rack where!

I've just about got all the rack that I need for Suzuki inc the rarer one than a 6" midge dick.

We are just too spoiled here in the states, with sooo much room. We can stretch and not touch the neighbor's house or the neighbor......

My garage has room for two cars and two bikes. My games room houses the pool table and the T500 because the bloody garage isn't big enough! She who must be obeyed has given approval for a workshop in the bare spot in the back yard. Yeehaa! Retirement is looming so I need lots of projects.

That's actually a very reasonable price in the UK for that bike in that condition.....considering what some absolute POS's go for over there. Shoulda bought her, John.

When I said to my darling wife I'm buying another bike she said there is no room in the garage...I thought there goes that idea. She said "you'll have to keep it in the games room". "Righty oh" I thought. How come I won that round? That could cost me dearly in the longer run. Seems the payment as such is I have to build a workshop. Mmm, not sure I'm losing anything in this deal. On Sunday I'm going to look at another T500. Has lots of spares and the guy sounds like he needs to get rid of it in a hurry. When does the good news ever stop? Probably turn about to be a pile of crap. Two bikes in the games room, now that is going to be pushing it.

She said "you'll have to keep it in the games room".

Don't EVER part with that woman!!! She's definitely a keeper!!!!

It makes it hard to play pool with the T500 in the way.

For some shots I have to claim a two stroke penalty....

"And the Lord went forth with great triumph, but it blew a head gasket and he wished he bought a T500 instead."

Not sure where in the bible but I'm sure that's what it said...

'two stoke penalty' PRICELESS! I do believe I saw that in the bible too. I think it actually said 'on a triumph' but age maybe playing a trick on my memory.

When translated from ancient Hebrew the biblical references to motorcycles tend to be confusing...

I think you got the quote wrong. Should read "a great Triumph". Even a Triumph with a blown head gasket deserves a capital "T".
