Frenchbob Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 You´ll be in trouble; I´m telling Van the Tenniman 83159[/snapback] I don't know what all the fuss is about with Tennis, I really don't: take a perfectly good bike, ruin the handling by fitting funny forks, paint the fairing snot green, give each one a number and then ask a huge amount of money for it.....what's that all about?

Frenchbob Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 To get back to the original post topic [and with sincere apologies to all Tenni owners, now that I am experiencing the post-prandial calm and tolerance I was clearly lacking earlier], I have just looked to see the sort of Bridgestones I actually have fitted to the V11...........020s........Bugger! This means that I will now notice and come to dread every lurid slide, shimmy and bunny-hop that I took for granted as part and parcel of V11 riding before. Thanks, guys.

We also set up a private area for them as they like to be exclusive. For some reason they keep escaping and migrating back into forum society. Once we get them all in the Tenni section at once Jaap is going to lock the gate proper. Rj Don't make me wink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldini Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 ...For some reason they keep escaping and migrating back into forum society...... If they continue in their own restricted area they will be left stunted & unsure of the ways of the world. Perhaps the time has come for the walls to come down & for these people to be returned to the wild, where they may learn to fend for themselves & confront their delusions.

KB 83340[/snapback] A halfway house has been set-up to help the transition to normal forum society. You'll find most of the Tenni Guys here in their spare time. Why do you think they post so little on this board? They're too busy in that other place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchbob Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 How much longer can we go on taking the piss out of Tenni owners without suffering a retaliatory strike, do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchbob Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 We could be the 50%ers. Our Guzzis make 50% of their claimed power, are useable 50% of the time, 50% of them are subject to recalls, when you visit the dealer, he'll ask for 50% deposit for a part and you'll be waiting 50% of the coming year for it........one could go on. There's a V11 mission statement here somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
