Like a rash in London

5 spots today.....

1. Yellow - with cool number plate (Digits - YUM) on Bishopgate (ABN Building)

2. Can't remember colour - had pillion on London Bridge at 8.30am heading into City

3. Senna S4 - LK53 plate - just off Barbican

4. Black '06 plate with orange stripe on Old Street around 1sh

5. Finally JP's opposite the office.

Christ, apart from JP's, someone must own up to one of these!

No. 1 sounds a bit like Benson's, but her's is gold, not yellow methinks.

Wasn't Benson's I'm afraid. I do recognise the number plate though at a previous meet, so it's definitely someone on here. Own up whoever you are!

I tell thee for all of the work I am doing at the moment I might as well have done. Went for a very long walk at lunch today - shoulda just gone down the pub tbh.

Im a lucky git that has a spot reserved under exchange square 1/EBRD building! Might have mentioned this before on the forums ;-)

So you are the owner of the grey coloured monster on sun street!!! Your bike is pretty much parked on the same spot right? When I was monsterless for 6 months ( 1st one stolen ;-( ) I used to always envy yours! Always passed it because the 271 bus used to drop me on Finsbury sq. Its a small world!

I spotted a grey/silver Monster going up the Kings Road towards Chelsea town hall this morning. Two up and carving through the lovely traffic.

A few Ducatis (don't know if they were Monsters or other noisy Italian, dry clutch things as I was sorting out our new bathroom cabinets last night!) were bimbling along Royal Hospital Road at around 8.30pm ish.

Right time to design my Monsters come back to being very pretty and very very loud! Only because the girlfriend is having new double glazed windows fitted at the weekend, and she'll never hear my bike turn up...

Certainly are!

Is pretty much in the same spot, which is a bit stupid considering there are so many tea leaves out there! Is good to know it was spotted, but I wish it was for better reasons - hate those thieving scum bags!

I am sure you are fine. Legions of bikes and always a lot of people around!.

Mine was nicked in Brixton on the 31st of December 2005 whilst visiting my girlfriend. Just came back from holidays and was too excited to see her. Was always reluctant to leave my bike there...Parked it unattached between two cars. 40 mins later she was gone.

Never experienced such rage as that day....also the last time I will ever park there!

Anyway back on the road now and aircooled!!! Grin factor is back.

One of those may be mine, another, a Matt Black 695 is a pal of mine at work who isn't on the forum and theres usually a Red M800 too. We all park up Clerkenwell Close. So that may account for a few sightings!
