The Eagle Has Landed

Post by VTRDark »

Hellooooooo The little green men just dropped me back off. LOL

First off a Massive apologies to you all for leaving you in the lurch. Life kind of took over and I needed a break from it all. Got really busy for a while and life was going really well and was very busy. It all went very much tits up though and ended with me loosing a 30 year friendship. Not good and I wish I hadn't started now. :sad2

Feeling very down in the dumps and very depressed. No work, no money, no friends and the bike is off the road. Cant afford to run it at the moment and It also needs an MOT. Got some work to do on it and get it back to MOT standard as and when I can. Talking about MOT, I have a question. I have been on the search for some oval shaped baffles to fit Two Brothers cans. I cant find any for the life of me. Any idea on how I can silence them down a bit for MOT purposes?

Dam I miss going for a blast. Mind you right now it's probably not a good idea as I'm likely to do something stupid. Been job hunting all day and that has got me more depressed. Got myslef into a bit of a mental hole so time to start thinking positive and dig myslef back out again. Anyway that's enough about me how you all doing. I've got some posts to catch up on LOL All the usual mob still here. I've missed the banter especially Mac's pisstaking.

Anyway I see Lloydie finally got top poster :wave: Well deserved too. :clap: :clap: I was thinking about you earlier mate. No...not like that. Like this

Keeping this post short and sweet. Hope your all OK and I shall catch up with everyone as and when. :thumbup:

Best thing to do mate is try to keep yourself busy. The good times will return, just try to remain positive. Getting back on here and reading all the bolloxs will help lol

Hey, :thumbup:

Thank fluck, I thought you & the Ginger Beard man had eloped to Gretna green, as there's been no sign of him either 8O :lol:

I've always thought the mot test can't be failed on a loud exhaust

I've had open pipes on mine for 5 years or more & the only thing that happens at mot time is the tester rev's the butt off it & comments on how good it sounds.

Great to hear from you btw, you've been missed :thumbup:
