The misses got me a private plate for my birthday, but as yet I have not been fussed about getting it on the typr R.

It's C20 *** maybe it wants me to put it on another Series One

I need to get my garage built and get one in there to tinker with, really fancy stripping one down and building it up

 

or a nova with a turbo engine c20 let

 

cant quite work out how C20 goes with a s1rst atm!?

 

me neitheer

 

I dont get it either

 

Glad its not just me then

 

Matt maybe you could explain further

 

Me either

 

Well, I am not a huge fan of the private plate, but not going to admit that to the misses as it was a present.

As they only made my shape type R for 2 years, it isn't hard to guess how old it is so it's not like I can hide the age of my car

But C20 *** will not look "private platey" on an S1 and my old S1 was C90 GOV and so everytime I look at the plate I think S1

That coupled with the lack of my enthusiam to get it on the Type R makes me think deep down I know what needs to be bought

Surely that was obvious

 

I think it IS telling you something about how your mrs would feel about you getting an S1 mate

she will Cut 2 Off if you get one

 

that is not far off, she was never a fan of the old one.

She viewed it like this...

in 18 months she gets under a grand lavished on her, the S1 got....

wait for it......

3500 - NOT including buying it which was 3k itself

 

6.5:1

sounds a good ratio.



did you point out that in the S1 you only had to lift off the throttle and you were guarenteed some arse end action EVERY ride?
