Poxy banks, when you owe them money they are all over you like a rash & charge you , but when it's the other way round, they have to shuffle the paperwork in the right order. I want my money !

I'm really sorry to hear this Marc ... Dave had good service at Dobles, but sometimes it's the luck of the draw ... perhaps you should write to Mike Doble he'd probably like to know about this if nothing else??
Put it behind you, and just enjoy your new bike ...  any pics yet |

I do prefer the fairing configuration on '06 over the '05 - more "nekkid" - reminds me of the YSOP with the sides off!

Aye well certainly a hole of some description
Nah to be fair the cnut award does in fact go to me for totally misreading what the Nazi go kart driving Nobhead was going to do

Being too trusting. Put down a £500 deposit for a horsebox 4 months ago with a view to collecting it after it had been plated, an agreed time scale of 4-6 weeks was agreed. It's still not ready and the owner stated it failed the plating test yesterday as a brake pipe burst. She then tried to excuse this by saying that she didn't know why they have to test it so rigorously as you never brake that hard when you have a horse on board!!!!
She really p*!@#d me off when she got the hump when i asked for the deposit back and tried a feeble excuse of having to do it after work tommorow, at this point i had to remind her that she lives next door to a post office. I f#@*!+g hate dishonest people, not once in this four months has she shown any remorse in way of an apology.

I have seen some truly shocking Horseboxes... a lot of the feckin things should be banned. I'm afraid what you've heard her say kind of sums up the attitude a lot of the equine fraternity take to maintainence... they always have thousands to spend on a saddle or vets, but never to make their vehicle safe
Bummer about the money... send the boys round?
