Title: Oh no she's gotta go
Post by: familyman on 10 February 2008, 08:42:53

Well yesterday afternoon had a really difficult descion to make. A friend of mine is selling his modified  Kawasaki zx12r. Been looking to replace my zzr 1100 for a while now and wow what a machine his is. So after consulting swmbo we came to the sad descion that the Omega has to go, trouble is it has to be relatively quick, he needs funds to buy a car he's seen now he has a kiddie on the way. Missus replaced her Ford fiesta with an Explorer so we don't need a big saloon anymore.
Unfortunately the OOF site wasn't working for me, couldn't even do TB's poll yesterday and so she went on e-bay for 7 days. We'll see how many test pilots i get!!!!
I'll still keep a look in on the site as its definately one of the best out there. and once the dust settles from the bike i would like to get an omegsa saloon in burgundy but a 3.0 elite next time. Just like say thanks for all the advice you all have given and all the discussions we've had, don't worry i'm stil a 'meega addict and will recomend the site to anyone with a 'meega :y :'( :'( :'(

Cheers guys, zx12 is awesome with various mods, power comander and some derestriction bits, aprox 180 brake now.  got my zzr11 up to 148 brake on the dyno and that was heavier than 12. so should be fun :y :y :y

Lucky man TB hopefully i'll have both by the end of summer fingers crossed ;D ;D ;D

No doubt you'll need a meega for next winter  ::), unless global warming keeps up and its like today all the time, then we'll all be buying bikes ;D ;D
