However, if you're a good lad, I'll skip the battery-powered version and toss an alloy block V8 in. Can't say fairer than that :-)Geoff Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041523109817248619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-37896760987374519812010-06-30T13:22:18.482+12:002010-06-30T13:22:18.482+12:00Geoff:

I know what you were trying to say and "I accept" graciously your offer of trying out your Street Triple on my impending visit <em>(one day)</em>. Just make sure it is full of petrol and check the tyres. I will be gentle with it and return it unscathed after a tour around the island in a few days<br /><br />thanks again<br />bob <br /><a href="%E2%80%9Dwww.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com%E2%80%9D" rel="nofollow">bobskoot: wet coast scootin</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341114511830074977.post-40225227304709178812010-06-30T11:25:27.476+12:002010-06-30T11:25:27.476+12:00Thanks Anthony!
