Don't know how they handle this in the UK, but it was an interesting piece of information for me: My dealer told me, that the punishment in Germany is less severe for installing an illegal exhaust in comparison to taking out the silencers of a legal one. Sounds to me, as if someone with a little Al Capone heritage / code of living came up with this!? Like: If you wannabe a snake, don't disguise as a frog... We are talking paying a ticket vs getting points & a ticket and therefore loosing your license if you have too many points on the account already. I remember, whenever I was in the mood to shake some babies out of their carriages and make all the dogs howl, I took the silencers out of my Thruxton's Arrows. (Sh.t: according to my theory, that makes me designated frog ) Cheers
Here's something good to know, sometimes I have to read Winglads post 2 or 3 times to make any sense, but eventually I get there !!!! Usually makes me laugh!
Don't put your tool kit under the seat of your tiger with the opening facing forward. I discovered what the rattling was.....it had come open andhalf me tools had slid out and got stuck down around the battery!! Could have beeen nasty
Well mates, I do hope it is not my dilettante use of your language, but the confusing ingredients of my messages that give you a hard time. If the latter is the case: don't you worry... My friends often look at me kind of puzzled as well. Even though I speak German. (At least, I hope I do) Anyway, please keep up the faith and bear with me. And believe me: it is not easy to live with a twisted mind. (Well saying this, I actually thought I finally found peace and understanding in this asylum....!!??)
Your english is a hundred times better than my German, so don't worry, just your turn of phrase amuses!! Keep it up pal, all love your banter.
I hear you Daniel,. People just don't always get my dark side . My head thinks things even when it shouldn't. I find your wit very good. With mine I just say/type what my mind thinks is funny. But I dont mean any offence.
We're just not used to Germans having a sense of humour. You just keep doing what your doing Winglad, like Mr O. I can generally work it out after a day or two of study. lol.
Don't you worry Jez, the so called pilots are mostly busy with showing off their inflatable autopilot to little boys visiting the cock-pit and explaining why a blow job is of utter importance in the aviation business. And talking about lounge-chairs: I usually arrive at the ressort with a tan. Therefore I can mingle with the locals and throw other people's towels into the swimming pool... Last point: Yes of course! Hitler was a misunderstood parrot! And he actually intended to repeat the same bullshit for about a 1000 years... Have a save journey, Jez! I am down with a flu looking out the window with watery eyes and a runny nose watching the last sunny September days melting away And a good weekend to all the other Trumpeteers
