Bondage!

Tour de Force!  ???

I bet the exhaust sounds flatulent! Made from the handrail out of the un-occupied shopping mall in 'any EU currency state', near you!

Hideous really and waste of a good donor.

Probably not worth reaching for it, it looks like it would get air in it when you lean to the right.

That fuel guage was extremely effective. Std equipment Suzuki T20 and T500 Cobra.

Never seen one leak, split or cause problems.

I can't find the definition of "pranging" on the net.
Can you explain for a poor lonesome french, please ?

A prang is a crash.

Prang = crash
I pranged it = I crashed it
After pranging it = After crashing it

It's the sort of word that you will hear 'stiff upper lip' RAF pilots using in 1940s war movies. Other archaic terms that we use are:
I had a bit of an off - I fell off
I bailed out - I jumped off
I binned it - I crashed it
it let go - I crashed it but I'm blaming the bike for losing traction  ;)

Thanks a lot for this english lesson. I thought the verb was "to prange". No way to find it on dictionnaries on the internet.

I thought "bail out" was an american term. I'm used to it because I have often been shot by these bloody Me109 and others FW190 in air combats simulations when I was young   :o

Now I know how to turn on the easy mode and invicibility in softwares  ::)
