always look on the bright side......

Just like to say 'all the best and seasons greetings' to all who know me and those who I've yet to meet!

when I joined the forum, it was quite a busy place.....seems these days folk are shy to post.....even for a chin wag

with the cost of fuel down again and no real alternative to rival the SVX.....
Lets hope 09' will see a little revival


Joe, got the bike sorted and ready for the spring.....so will see about tackling the 'bible' in the new year....honest

John

Re: always look on the bright side......

I second that John, although I guess I'm partly responsible for not posting as often as I used to..............

Not much chance of a return to SVX motoring for me either, although my Mini projects are keeping me busy at the weekends so that's got to be good. We are currently fitting a BMW K100 motorcycle cylinder head on an A-series block...... which isn't a daft as it sounds, but means I'm probably going to have to become familiar with Megaquirt II in pretty short order !!

I'd like to thank Joe for being the upstanding pillar of the network that he is, again to Joe and Graham for taking on the duties at JAE this last couple of years, to Phil for his seemingly never ending quest to unravel the mysteries of the TCU, and to everyone who has contributed to the European section this year.

So as John says take solice in the reduction in fuel costs and enjoy the swift, smooth and superior motoring pleasure provided by the SVX in 2009.

Phil.

Hey John

good to hear from you.

I'm very pleased to hear about the bike and about the "bible"

Regards the bible it will be nice to get a start whenever we do we do. It will happen quick enough once we get started.

Regards the bike, my touring friends are strongly thinking of Scotland for a few days this year. Any chance you could join us for a day or two? We would have fun

Joe

Be doo,

Be doop be doop be doo.


Phil, thanks for the kind comments. It was the car that got me hooked, but it's the people that keep me coming over.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas.

Joe

and I'd like to second that Phil!...you can guarantee if you post a question, Joe will answer for sure..(always seems to be in the middle of the night though).
I bought my SVX as a 'put me on' till I saw something better..through the help and advise from Ireland and the ROTW, soon made me realise what I had bought!.....5 YEAR AGO!

all the best Phil

Joe, the bike thing would be good, if I get all me bits!

parts for a 16 year old SVX from Japan, 2 weeks...parts for a 5 year old Aprilia from Italy, 2 months....so far


John

Re: always look on the bright side......

Howdy Arthur

75000 miles, not too shabby.

My current SVX in use is a '92 silver. It has 40K miles on it, I got it from Jersey where they don't have great scope for high mileage.

Happy New Year everybody

Joe
