This popped up in Facebook's Rockster group:

If you buy a green Rockster, then I can send you matching Bagster tank cover to continue your legacy.
Somehow the Universe has provided...

A friend of mine has had a 2000 Triumph 955i sitting in her garage for the past 2 years after she was knocked off at low speed. It's a CatD write-off (economically unrepairable), and she's been paid out on it. The bike is just sitting there taking up space. I think it's just fairings, and a cracked casing (either clutch or alternator cover is most likely - that's be more than enough to write off a 10 year old sportsbike). I pick it up Friday evening. :)

Rockster is being picked up tomorrow.

So - sticking with the single sided swing arm, but swapping to chain drive, telescopic forks, hunched over riding position, fairings, no heated grips yada yada... it'll be fun!

I daresay I'll still hang around here to see how you guys on the old tractors are getting on. ;)
Non quod, sed quomodo.
