My new trike
chrisg - 16/2/02 at 11:23 PM

Hello Chaps,

If you have been to my website you might have seen details of the trike I intend to build when the Locost is fully sorted(2010?)

What I'd like to ask is , does anyone have any idea what is the cheapest way to get a front damaged bike (750cc or over)?

Please bear in mind that I'm fantastically mean, so I do mean cheap, preferebly free!

I don't need the front wheel or forks but the rest of the bike would be used almost in it's entirety.

Have a look:- http://www.gibbs111.fsnet.co.uk

On the news page>My next project

Cheers

Chris

Seriously Chris,we have motor bike autojumbles down here at Kempton Park.

I could use th Puch for reverse I suppose!

That would be good Bob, let me know what sort of price they want.

Cheers

Once Pervfest 2002 gets under way this summer in Sheffield with all the pretty low cut top wearing females I'm hoping to again defend my title....

bob - 17/2/02 at 10:03 PM

Yeah right!!


chrisg - 17/2/02 at 10:21 PM

Yes rich,

I like to get out on Fargate on asunny day and count chests

Always finish up with an odd number for some reason;-)

Cheers

Chris

Maybe at some point we could have a Locost Builders meet just outside the entrance to Hallam Uni, that's a sun trap and tends to get the highest class of chest....


Dazza - 18/2/02 at 11:48 AM

or a meet near richmond bridge on a hot sunday afternoon, trust me, this is the place............


chrisg - 18/2/02 at 06:17 PM

mmmmmmmmm a breastfest/wobbleathon sounds good to me!!!!!


Metal Hippy™ - 18/2/02 at 06:47 PM

No no no, I'm telling you....

Outside Hallam the sun bounces off the building aswell...

They really do gather in large numbers.

Just think..

Twice the number of tits as women.

Can't be bad.


chrisg - 18/2/02 at 10:30 PM

Wasn't this thread supposed to be about my trike?

Cheers

Hey
You're all a bunch of ham shanking perverts. Get back to the matter in hand! Now where abouts at hallam uni did you say?

i can tell ya chris how to get a 100% condition bike for nothing.

My mate at work found an ad for a cbr600 honda. 3k miles, 3 years old, 3400 quid, which is apparently cheap.

well, phoned the guy today to tell him the hpi check was ok and he was coming with his wad (ooeer) and was told the bike was stolen last night.

apparently, several people rang, got the address to come and see it but didnt bother. This morning, garage door was forced, and one missing bike.

thats pretty locost sont ya think?

Get a spotty 17 year old to do it for you and he will just get a ticking off.....


chrisg - 24/2/02 at 11:34 PM

Hi Steve,

Can't you steal me one mate, you seem to be the larceny expert. I'll give you, erm, twelvety pounds and a precious thing for it!

Cheers

Chris
