Rested her in the hallway and sat on the stair staring at her for 4 hours.

Not sure you should confess to buying you're wife from some dodgey Russian website mate! :P

Indeed it was, good spot!

Looks like I'm going to need a tray for all these drinks

Cheers for the welcome.

Whilst you're at the bar....

Nice to have all these new people joining the board

You've done the right thing!

Phil,

Your new 916 is so immaculate that I immediately recognised it as Walenut's, as some time ago he posted the same picture of it when he'd finished the work on it.

In fact I thought it was so nice that I asked him to let me know if he was ever going to sell it, obviously he forgot (or more likely I failed to make any impression on him).

Still, my loss is your gain. Enjoy it.

p.s. let me know if you're ever selling it !

It was more of a private PX deal, right time, right place etc. which is probably why he didn't speak to you first.

I finally managed to prise the keys out of his hands last night along with a big wad of cash

By the time we got back onto the M25 last night I figured we were safe from him changing his mind.

I've got boxes and boxes of bits as well!

Prepare to spend a lot of time glancing back over your shoulder when you get of it (and for onlookers to do the same).

Great looking Duke. Welcome to the club!

That's one fine example of a piece of motorcycling history.

Beautiful, original, showroom condition (think I just come).

Watch the stone chips, they'll break your heart !
