Looks like Whorf.

No Marcey I’m not moose fucker enough for that throbbing native beast. Takes a real man like you to handle such a thing

Think so, I don't mind a bit of wet but roads flooded and trees down are a good reason to stay in

Nope

I think that's where the water is coming from. Not cold though just wet.

Oh I do hope the rain stops before I have to go to work tonight

He knows who he is

Now I read that as I'm going to hide away from the Mrs in case she finds a job for me.

Shadow is the Hamster in this house. She always has several stashes of nice stuff in her room. I was looking for a Pot Noodle for my older daughters pack lunch, none in the cupboard, Shadow had 14 stashed in her hidy place. I was chatting to the Mrs to see if I should chide Shadow over it, she brought up the point that she was malnourished until she was around 5 and we decided to leave her be. It's not like I don't know where the stashes are, she is not greedy over stuff and will always share if asked.

Nice coat

Sounds bloody lovely, seriously

Dropped Shadow up the stables this morning, silly not to have a little bimble at the same time

What you doing? Quiet one for me, working Friday and Sunday night will watch a lot of rugby and may go for a bimble Sunday weather permitting.

Sort of explains where all the old Monsters went then. I remember them being pretty common in the early 2000's can't remember the last time I saw one.

Yep and if you want to feed a fire with pound notes buy a sailing boat. We did and learnt a lesson from it.

Just had a message from another mate on FB about the monster, apparently he and the seller put a borescope down the bores last year to diagnose low compression. Two big scores in the Nikasil liner on the front pot. Definitely a no from me then.

Has your account been hacked

Here we go I knew it couldn’t last.

I would imagine it’s a dog. Belonged to an ex teacher who lived across the road from me. He ran a Paso into the ground years ago and then bought this monster. I haven’t seen it for years but I’m in no doubt it rough in every way, knowing who owned it originally. Sounds like it maybe a pass then. I don’t need an ornament I can’t afford to fix. I might wait for an older CBR600 or a tatty Blade as at least I have more of a clue about them and can get parts.

I have been offered a 2000 ish Ducati 750 Monster as a project. It's running but needs the carbs sorting and is generally rough cosmetically. Has had new belts in the last 6 months. Guy only wants £300. Any of you in the know think of a reason or red flag that I shouldn't jump on this. Don't know very much about Ducatis, never owned one or had much interest in doing so before. Cosmetic stuff I can sort. Be nice to have a project for the dark months. Going to talk to the guy again tomorrow and see if I can have a good look. @boboneleg @Sir Fallsalot

Shadow had a bit of an off the last time we went out and managed to snap off a foot peg. Fixed it to day for her and added some SW Motech crash bars for her.

Off out to fix Shadows bike now. Show some pics later.

This looks nice and only done 7k miles. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335592279256?_skw=bmw+f650&itmmeta=01J98J9V8VNXSBDD8S0Q9A9AVM&hash=item4e22dbccd8:g:1w4AAOSwB~Jm2xDW&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKnblaFU7%2FXw2kkuONhRq7kWgH0IWIKaOZZXsFhWAf7ckyPdpH2BHJZYxb4sFWZUlafmRmLdBFqaGUAcPrX1PmJKGBpKl%2Bu5tTpvMXsUNxZoJNrID6HFUSofVxO3oo9cGVzSpqMm%2F5JHq1eQz1kc%2Fqu2%2FmkwsZ8C%2F8xtZQuRA9PyAXCKPrZgCqsJHF2d4YQJ6mjLVWfV9wGlBwX5YlKFKVDLawBMFugx5dkL%2FrGeUUlvMw%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8C0p5LKZA

I think you are way too far back to catch the front runners this year
