Squinternotto Posts : 1 Join date : 2015-07-05 Age : 64

G'day Guys,

Just picked up my GRiSO 2 weeks ago, its great to be be back on another Guzzi - Last one I had was an 850 LeMans MkII, that was an awesome bike also !!
Been 20 years I reckon since having a bike, so have some catching up to do.
I'm in Redland bay area Brisbane so if anyone's keen for a weekend ride it would be good be hear from you.

Cheers

Brent

Bugger off, yer an idiot! Everyone knows Queensland is full of savages and blowhards! Very Happy

Incidentally, Wayne, are you still using the stock gear lever and stuff on Bella? I bought a load of stuff for the one I wrote off before it was killed just to get the bloke moving but it never got fitted. Yours at cost if you need it.

All stock pegs and levers, unmarked. Wouldn't mind a set of custom (home made) rear sets for the next track day, just for the knee down wank factor before the rectal sphincter gets too tight ... or loose.
Actually, a mate might try to buy one (or it) from the auctions, I've got half a bike spare now sitting on the shelf rusting, all the shit that usually gets damaged in a crash.
Which auction yard was it sent to? Sorry for hijacking your thread Brent

Hi Brent welcome to the Ghetto Viva la Fiesta

The Gloucester ride would be an opportunity to rack some K's up on your GRiSO. Click the link below for the details and the chatter. I plan on coming down through Brisbane on my way there cheers

Pro'ly not. I'd be more interested in fanging up and down the Oxley non stop, and sipping latte's while others did the same on Bella, rather than playing tourist in Nabiac and drinking piss.

I rode the Oxley a few weeks ago on a Sunday morning. There was a highway patrol car in action on the western side of Gingers Creek, maybe 5-10km towards Walcha (i.e. still in the forest where the higher speed sweepers are). It was parked in the scrub but I can't remember if they were using handheld radar or a camera. The locals have told me in the past that the local police stay away from the area, but that seems to have changed.

Fanging up & down the Oxley could be likely & arranged, especially to test that new road surface - well worth it. There's usually a few "fringers" who manage it, seeing they are in the area. It's only just over the hill. And you northerners would have to pass it, both coming & going.

Welcome Brent

I don't see why we can't do some Oxley fanging either. I've got the whole week plus a day. That's ten days.

Anyway, there's more to these cabals than expecting GRiSO owners to crack a fat over your Bellagio while you sup Lattes like a Ducati owner.

Note: Edited to make it more offensive.

I get little or no time to holiday, while I'm self employed or rather unemployed until the next phone call, I have a cruisey semi retired lifestyle but need to be available locally 24/7 just to make sure I pay the rent. The future promises a career change to 2 days a week printing money, and trying to spend it all in the next 5. Then I shall Cabal, regularly.

While I would love Pete to sample Bella and get his view on improvements, I'm certainly not keen for you to leave traces of gysum all over my bike. I have little time for alcohol, it does nothing for me.

Poofter, I ignored.
Ducati owner, now that is bloody offensive coz I resemble that remark.

Note: Edited because Beetle is offensive. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Welcome Brent, good to see you here.

Bugger! I was hoping to get a rise out of you. A well considered response wasn't expected. Curse!

$100.00 on the Aussie to do it right.

Though I wouldn't recommend it Ghezzi unless you are in with the right CABAL pirat

Anyhow, I know you are kidding and good luck with the career change whatever that may be.
