From this to this? The SR250 saga begins.

First ride tonight runs like a hot bag of spanners and noticed some oily spots on entire engine. number plate fell off and smashed and front brake would not stop a mouse on a roller skate. That all said... I rather enjoyed myself!

Poem from a hero a legend of our time.

Collect Telegram from a Mad Dog
by Hunter S. Thompson

Not being a poet, and drunk as well,
leaning into the diner and dawn
and hearing a juke box mockery of some better
human sound
I wanted rhetoric
but could only howl the rotten truth
Norman Luboff
should have his nuts ripped off with a plastic fork.
Then howled around like a man with the
final angst,
not knowing what I wanted there
Probably the waitress, bend her double
like a safety pin,
Deposit the mad seed before they
tie off my tubes
. . .

Suddenly a man with wild eyes rushed
out from the wooden toilet
Foam on his face and waving a razor
like a flag, shouting
. . .
We'll take our vengeance now!
. . .

We rang for Luboff
on the pay phone, but there was
no contact
. . .

Get a Lawyer, I said. These swine have gone
far enough.
Now is the time to
lay a writ on them,
Cease and Desist
. . .

The legal man agreed
We had a case and indeed a duty to
Right these Wrongs, as it were
The Price would be four thousand in front and
ten for the nut.
I wrote him a check on the Sawtooth
National Bank,
but he hooted at it
While rubbing a special oil on
his palms
To keep the chancres from itching
beyond endurance
On this Sabbath.
. . .
Later, from jail
I sent a brace of telegrams
to the right people,
explaining my position.

Things going well with machine wish I could say the same about my income!! Jobs are scarce here t the mo. So more time to cut some useless metal off her and secure the mud guards with foam so I don't get that annoying plastic rattle no more! The stand got removed too. Next mission is to spray the tank and eagle the fucker up

The Night stalker.

very Cold at moment so riding is painful unless you happen to prefer a frozen jaw, Roll on summer! So that's another reason to strip the thing down. Starting with fuel tank then mud guards. Getting that shitty paint off!
