LOL No. You said English were the ugliest people in world. I said they had 'some' of the ugliest people in the world. I wouldn't like to say who I think the ugliest people in the world are because its not politically correct in this day and age and I like to be a bit more sensitive towards people's feelings given that there are probably many different nationalities and races frequenting these forums. Of course, I know you don't worry about that sort of thing. Anyway...they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder :) By the way. Please explain why the British can't build bikes to save their lives.	legod (4626)
603483	2007-10-21 07:49:00	More fool you for bothering to reply. And its a great pity that someone who must know so much about bikes would be so biased as to nominate British junk as a worthy ride, Sure, In their day they may have held their own, But 1973 was a long time ago.	Metla (12)
603484	2007-10-21 07:51:00	You rotten bugger, You done an edit while I was tying out my reply.:D	Metla (12)

Metla - the British bike industry has been in decline for along long time. It went into a dramatic decline many years ago for a number of reasons. And it wasn't because the bikes were crap.	legod (4626)
603486	2007-10-21 08:00:00	Ok, care to elaborate? In my view, The british industry was stagnet, no innovation was going on, poor workmanship/Poor quality control ,Sales were dieing The Japs arrived and kicked their arses badly, with higher quality faster better designed bikes, no doubt cheaper as well	Metla (12)
603487	2007-10-21 08:00:00	You rotten bugger, You done an edit while I was tying out my reply.:D Yeah well - one has to carefully choose one's words with you around :lol:	legod (4626)

In my view, The british industry was stagnet, no innovation was going on, poor workmanship/Poor quality control ,Sales were dieing The Japs arrived and kicked their arses badly, with higher quality faster better designed bikes, no doubt cheaper as well Yes - that's pretty much the sad story of the decline of the british motorcycle industry. But you said the British can't build bikes to save their lives. They certainly can - albeit not on a large scale. It's more a niche industry now propelled by enthusiasts. I wouldn't turn my nose up at a Norton or a Triumph. If you think they are crap, that's fine. Everyone has different tastes. I'm not a fan of Harley Davidson but then that's just my personal opinion. I'd still prefer a Ducati or a Moto Guzzi.	legod (4626)

603490	2007-10-21 09:05:00	But you said the British can't build bikes to save their lives. Lmao. Yeah, Its called looking for the soft underbelly, and in this thread created for no other reason then to antagonize the Brits I managed to get a bite. Woohoo. Im a fan of motorbikes, end of story, I have had at a guess 40, 3 of which have been Harley's. Of course, None have been British, But we can put that down to many years of riding with people who ride British bikes....:p	Metla (12)
603491	2007-10-21 09:23:00	Lmao. Yeah, Its called looking for the soft underbelly, and in this thread created for no other reason then to antagonize the Brits I managed to get a bite. I pretty much figured that from the bad teeth and Coronation Street statement.:cool: What do you ride now?	legod (4626)
