Title: She's Coming Home
Post by: Whitewheels on Friday, 23 July 2021, 05:12 AM
So, because of circumstances I sold "Foxy" about 18 months ago (and maybe shouldn't but shit happens) and I have been looking for a really nice K2 pretty much for the last yr or so, there is some mint "dogs" out their as we all know, in the mean time i bought a really nice speed triple in may and I have just sold her yesterday (nice but not a 1400) then I got a txt out of the blue of the guy who bought Foxy asking me if I wanna buy it back (I did say give me first refusal) we did the deal by text, and I will be re united again 🙏🏻 On Saturday....strange how things turn out eh

A great looking bike, the best colour scheme  :)  I love mine and will not let this one go what ever may happen, have learnt my lesson at last after owning six!

Out of interest has the other owner put many miles on her?

Cheers

Pete

Whadda ya mean?  :confused1:  Jeff Irish was faster n he has a Black, so that shoots down that argument about the B/W's.   :popcorn:  :whistling:

Nah B/Ws are faster & the owners know it so they've got nothing to prove. Black owners racing off to try & be faster is like a chav in a Corsa racing* a fast car off the lights.

😝😝 boomerang bike....love it, had a couple of boomerangs in my time 🙄

Tbh if had a all black k4.....but the B&W k2 is a defo faster 😜😜

Funny thing being I sold my speed triple on Tuesday night, and out the blue I got the txt asking me if I wanted her back before he advertised it......madness but fair play to him 👏🏻👏🏻

Colour has nothing to do with it, but as Snapey said "black isn't a colour"

Black is a lack of colour, so what you're seeing is an empty space where no light is coming from......I think :confused1: ???
Does that mean that black ones can sneak up on you? Only when your tootling along, of course.

Black is always black, mine is blue but becomes black in the dark. Best of both worlds.

In the sunlight the black ones have a nice metallic blue.
