Re: Ebay/Paypal holding funds

I seem to remember that the last time I bought something from e-bay (I use Paypal) if I pay direct from the bank I have the option of withholding the payment for 14 days by ticking a box. Or it may have been un-ticking the box. I know I was surprised that the money didn't leave my account straight a...

Re: Ten years already

Noticed that today, as well as being my birthday, is my tenth anniversary on this forum (maybe I was already p*ssed when I signed up :lol: ) Anyway, it's been a rollercoaster ride, with a load of laughs and a few tears along the way.

Re: KTM 1290 Super Duke R...... holy smoke

It will break. IMO KTM are shite. I remember people saying that in 1984 when i had a KTM250 EXC. And they only 2 or 3 other bikes in their range at that time. Now they pretty much own the Junior MX scene world wide, Own the Enduro scene in all classes, Good representation in MX and have taken a big...

Re: alfa romeos?

I have had three in fact I still have two. The best and most reliable was a1984 Spider. I currently own a 2001 156 2.5 V6 Sportwagon. It's been quite reliable but very expensive to repair as it seems as if Alfa build everything on to the engine and then fit it to the body so you can't get at anythin...

Re: Giving up

I gave up my Storm 18 months ago as my neck and wrists wouldn't take any more. Got me a KTM 990 SMT best thing I ever did. Power delivery is much like the Storm only more frantic but it's comfortable I can ride it all day and hang hard luggage on for a weekend away. Still miss the Storm but not the ...
