Your Honour,

With all due respect I would like to,

1) Question your professional integrity, and

2) Appeal against your "wrong" decision.

My views are based on the foundations of this club.
This club represents ownership of THE biggest iconic bike of all time, ever.
The mighty Z1 CANNOT be seen to be in the same stable as moperds, scooters and step throughs.

The thought of such comparisons makes my willy soft and dry.
A feeling that is rather alien to myself.

The mighty Z1 should stand proud above all others that have failed to remove its crown.
It should NOT stand along side such insignificant commuter imposters.

If members wish to participate in the purchase of such hideous, horrible excuses for Japanese creations, I suggest they join the appropriate clubs / organisations.
They should also sign up for a subscription to Gardeners Weekly (Paul Doran has the details).
Their next purchase should be a pair of tartan slippers and a burgundy terry towelling house coat.

I would suggest an alternative purchase as a Z200 or a Z250 to act as a "winter hack".

Well I must say Jimmock, you are Big K through and through!!!

I reckon the CD 185 would "piss all over" a Z200 / Z250 !!

If you want a race I'll race you round the A406 North Circular.
Last in buys the coffees at the ACE !!!!

PS, I'm still NOT gay!!!!
It's Great to be GAY

Making love to a woman is nice, but you can't beat "the real thing".

come on guys, i think the truth is Piggy is loosing his riding mojo and needs to scale the cc's down a tadge, 50 is a worrying age :sou as Peter Fonda said in the film wild hogs "we are all bikers guys" respect to anyone wishing to extend their motorcycling beyond their physical peak.

there's no need to thank me for these words Piggy, i think i understand mate :nic

Mick,

Are you saying that possibly Piggy has lost his bottle?
His arse has collapsed?
He is "scared"?
He has lost the edge?
He is frightened?

Or is he just simply TOO OLD for a large capacity hooligan of the 70's?

Your Honour,

I cannot help but think your attitude has a certain amount of intimidation to it.

I didn't think that a quality of being a Judge was to be a big bully.

I intend to write to the Law Society and question your suitability to hold such a position.
