h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well. It's not what you think.

VV will very shortly be back on the road!!

I have purchased a Honda Shadow 750cc motorcycle. It's in the process of being registered with the DVLA and once that is done the people I have bought it from will be able to give me a collection date. I won't be riding it home. Brother in law is going to ride it back for me. I think it is safer this way.

The insurance is good too! Fully Comp I got it for £260.00. This is good considering that I haven't had a bike for over 3 years now so no "no claims" to carry over.

Perhaps VV is getting her way back to normality!

Well done you Take it easy to start with and scrub the tires in, how old is it?

It's 5 years old and is a grey import. It has just over 1000 miles on the clock so it hasn't really been run in.

As for going fast. Hey, a milk float could overtake me!

Has it got stabilisers?


Mum xx

If it's imported from Japan then it will have a limiter on it 180 klm top speed, nice engine just can't really get your ass in the air , I put 50,000 miles on a Vfr in 2yrs and never had any trouble with it.

oi! I didn't know you were aas well as VC & V - butanyway

Have fun!

Not too much fun!

if it is restricted (check with whoever you are getting it off) they should be easy enough to derestrict.

But hey, back on the road again, good on ya VV! Although disappointed I won;t be able to make any jokes about Vicki Viagra this time

So will the name have to change then? Sally Shadow perhaps?

Change my name?


CHANGE MY NAME!!!


huh!!!

Anyone would have thought I'd named myself after a bike or something.

Perish the thought!

What? You mean you didn;t choose it cos you have a large comfortable seat and go like the clappers?

I must say I'm somewhat disappointed to find that out!

CHANGE MY NAME!!!well, people wear honda pants don't they ??

some even wear harley davidson aftershave. But the less said about them the better - least they ride proper cruiser bikes

As the saying goes, there are two types of biker. Those who ride Harleys andthose who aren't retarded

Oh and I loooooooove Shadows...so I expect to get a ride...one on the bike'd be nice too.

** people wear honda pants **

only if they are looking like their dogs...

to explain: hond is Dutch for dog

"Perhaps VV is getting her way back to normality!"

Oooh I hope not - we want VV to stay just as mad as she has always been

remember adnoh is honda backwards

Yeah, but it's not a Goldwing so it doesn't have a reverse gear.

Have fun,but do be careful dear!!!
