So there it sits safely in my courtyard.

The picture is complete with daisy our silly dog with a coat, and my daughter top right outside one of our barns. (note the swing I made is out of action for the season)

After the day out to pick up the Husaberg 400 a few days ago, my usual courier resumed his rounds, and delivered this new toy to me today. Yes I gave him a tip as I know how bad these roads are at the moment, and I was happy to see this arrive in 1 piece.

This one is a bit unusual for me, as it requires zero work. It comes with a TUV which is a government roadworthy certificate for 12 months, and even insurance as it is here (unlike the UK) transferable with the vehicle.
I will be riding this for a month when the weather permits, and then putting it into storage with my collectable bikes, then it is never seeing daylight or the road again until it is sold by my daughter, when I am 6 feet under the ground :-).....

Nice spec to this bike as it is full power, and not the 12 bhp restricted garbage served up in the UK. It has a working power valve and is around 30 bhp as standard. As these are the belgarda model, they were made in Italy, so you get all the Italian goodies like Marzocki front forks, Brembo brakes and the Minareli 125 engine. This site puts it at 26 bhp. & 154 kmph top speed.

Later today I will do another sbi (steem basic income) giveaway.

It will be for ten people and was suggested during my last giveaway. The 10 people will be those that have voted for the most people over the course of 7 days. This will have zero to do with self voting or bidbots, it is purely who has spread the most love far and wide.

Sbi is a two way street, as I gain at the same time as you do, we both end up with 1 equal share divided by 2 if you like. So me helping you also helps me too. This is why I think if you blog/write/post regularly, it is a great giveaway for anyone to do.

I shall be back later in the PM to do said post, stay awesome and have a wonderful day ahead.

Wonderful and powerful machine, you gotta have a good wrist to control them, especially on twisties, you're lucky to have learned with that power in the wheels, hope to see some slide action, be safe my friend, loved it!

Cheers my friend, I will be adding videos this year so you can all come ride with me. :-)

That is some great news, I'll stay tuned, thanks for your support bro.

:-) Most welcome my friend.

Got enough bikes?

After what you resteemed yesterday, this is worth a read - from back in Aug 2016 when I first joined

https://decentralize.today/the-ugly-truth-behind-steemit-1a525f5e156

Nope, can never have enough bikes, whilst I have BARNS to fill and a 4 bedroom house, plus workshops lol.

Yes read it, read many like it, stinc premined and said they were going to give it away, they never have.

After all this time I never grasped just how deep the content control on Steemit really runs - Steemit was promoted in Aug 16 by two big names - James Corbett who I still trust (but he was conned by Sibel Edmonds) and Jeff Berwick who is a full on con-man (who I still admire because he's so damn good at it)

You sir, were not paying enough attention then, maybe due to the rising price? It takes a drop in price to see the woods through the trees at times, does it not!

I have high hopes it will rise again this year and I will shut my face and play the game, but like cryptos, now I am no longer blind to whose game I'm playing in - the zionist scum have got this one in hand

It is bucking the trend Steem

Now stinc has stopped cashing out via the alpha account.

Ned is having a clear out!

I think you may find he just moved 1.5 million out!

Cool bike and should be a good appreciating asset for your daughter.

So there it sits safely in my courtyard.
