What does one get for £15?
Errr nothing! i joined years ago, forum was dead and absolutly nothing to show for your £15 but a reciept. Left it about 6 months to see if anytiing happened then got my money back.
Bit like here but with the added bonus of loads of verbal abuse and pisstaking. Only difference is, here you don't need to be a site supporter to receive said abuse, no, even regular members get it for free with a extra sprinkling of sarcasm thrown in for good measure :grin:

So picking up here, as expected predictably yet another "special" has been proved to be nothing more than a gullible buyer. nearly as good as that chap selling the original 100% standard RVF only to get quite stand offish and defensive stating his was a one off from the factory when someone pointed out they never came with drilled hangers, double bubble screen and a 18" rear wheel !

I've seen this happen so many times on forums of different subject matter over the years. Very seldom does the protagonist actually eat humble pie and admit that there is people out there who are infinitely more knowledgeable in certain fields. No, like matey they invariably get shirty and start hurling abuse around in a vain attempt to save face. Before the dawn of the internet you could probably get away with the bullshit stories but nowadays most things are documented to a certain extent on the www.

It really is rather funny...

Waw...i could have used this info on my website...or at least looked it over before i started to piss Force-V4 off over it lol. I was hoping he would come up with this lovely proof before i decided it was pants...but Force-V4 jumped in before and....well you guys all know the outcome.

And another thing...why didn't you guys come on to say these things to him yourself's? would have maybe convinced him that he's been conned rather than him thinking that he's just being bullied over his claims.

Well I know that my bike is a limited edition run of 1. It's the only bike that has that specific serial number.

Must be special, right?

edit: Just seen the posts on the other forum, wow. Haha says it all really. How tempting it must be to get carbon bonnet, roof and mirrors on...... a van!! Christ.

I can confirm that it was Pete Panagi who did once run the NC30 club in Bexhill, I did pick up a few parts from his house.
Last year I saw Pete in Bexhill but Pete was quite obviously now living life as Penny ( long hair,make up,dress etc) not that it makes any difference, thats his choice.
I live about 10 miles from Bexhill but dont know who PaintM8 is or seen the ultra rare 1 of 200 NC30s and I guess know one will ever see it as he must be on another planet ;)
