The more cultured amongst you will, of course, recognise the above line oft quoted by Sgt Major Williams to belittle people's problems in the fabulous "It ain't half hot mum" !
He would definitely use it here...
I can't be the only motorcyclist constantly 'stressing' about what to buy next surely!?
I'm 50 next year (well, will be so long as I'm still here) and wanted to treat myself. Plans to buy a '68 Bonnie, restore it and fire it up on our joint 50th look less likely as time runs out to do the necessary.
Hence my not irregular questions on the 961 pages asking about these bikes. A nice '68 reg Commando would be an ideal treat to commemorate 50 years since being born in '68! But as you can detect from my posts, I'm not 'enthusiastic' enough to be prepared to buy myself into a load of stress and hassle and disappointment. So, I'll keep asking and probing on that idea for a while yet.
Or, and keep quiet at the back, should I just admit defeat and go and buy that 103" HD Street Bob, or Softail Slim, that regularly show up on my radar for short periods!?
