So what frivolous things have you bought lately? Why?

Please tell me the rear mudguard gets the fuck off.

Nice bike, really like it and I'll be curious to see you twist it to your taste. I like the tank colour, it'd be the side panels I'd want to tie in better.

I'm more interested to find out how it rides and how it differs from the triumph twin.

The mudguards will both be replaced with after market Guzzi items that are more discreet, and the side panels are also being replaced.

I'm sure you won't do it how I'd do it but I'm curious to see how you do it. That's the fun, innit.

This is the bike I was trying to buy before, it was one of a few bikes customised by Moto Strada, but they wanted too much for it IMO and they would not negotiate. I would have still wanted to change a couple of things as well. It was fecking loud!


However I'm happy now I've got a totally standard bike, and looking forward to doing my own mods.

Didn't buy this customised Mustang. But it was outside a place I was buying other vehicle related stuff from...

It was absolutely mental.
Until you compared it to the Supra parked next to it! Then the Mustang looked tame & understated! 😳

Really @BAD LUCK DUCK the pheromones of your new chick must be getting to you - pink car, and pink wheels!! 😱

Modding cars like that is really not my thing 🤨

Just bought this for the garage, my old Stanley 24L job gave up the ghost at the weekend
SGS 50 Litre Direct Drive Air Compressor - 9.6CFM, 2.5HP, 50L (sgs-engineering.com)
Forkin SGS. Won't deliver to me.... I wanted a new 4t jack, theirs was a comparable price, but it was a third dearer when they added shipping. And then up pops a note saying they don't deliver to my postcode.

So bought a Sealey one, same price more or less, and free shipping.

I don't suppose a 4t jack is frivolous though... Is it? What if I tell you its bright orange?
