you give your neighbor if he drops off TWO of these?

twin 1974 rd60's. Bikes were taken apart with 50 miles on them! I have titles (blank) and n.o.s. parts in the boxes. It's like friggin christmas!

i'd give at least 4 slabs (a slab = 24 bottles)
but shieett i like the shape of the tank - i'd give 2 slabs for one of those alone.
 
id give him a personal bar setup with 4 kegs of his choice.

and id invite him to every barbeque id ever have, forever.
 
Haha, nice man! And yeah definitely great tanks - please tell me these hings are going to be either restored or cafed...

...and I'm in for 2 cases of beer and a bottle of spirits.

+1. I think that's perfect. 2 30 packs of Highlife and a bottle of Powers.
 
Restored? Cafed?
No way. What you gotta do is rake the necks, put on extended fork tubes, strip the paint off and soak the tins in acid, put on a ridiculously huge 380 beachball monstrosity rear tire, a sissy bar complete with rebel flag insert, some hard bags (cuz everyone knows baggers are hot right now), and some short pipes with no baffles. Oh and a cupholder that'll hold a big gulp.Then you've got twins that you can be proud of.

I'm just kidding... ;) definately resto on one and stripped down racer on the other

Just traded my mate a case (24 x 375ml) of Hollandia (kinda like Heineken...but Dutch) and a bottle of dark Capt. Morgans for his CBR250RR. He seemed happy, so maybe the formula is something like:

Cases of booze given (B) = number of bikes received (r) + 1 bottle of spirits (s)

Therefore, B = rs

See? Doesn't alcohol make algebra a lot more fun? No? Oh...well, I tried.

;D - boingk
 
Hey Boingk I like your formula! It seems about right.

One minor tweak though, I think it should be B=r+s. As you have it it's B=bikes TIMES spirits.

OK, I'm sorry. I know that's totally obnoxious of me, but I'm a professor so correcting things is a compulsion out of my control.

I wonder too if there should be an additional variable for quality of booze, perhaps linked to age, condition, or even displacement of bikes?
 
You're dead right, dcwp. And yeah, probably some sort of conditional formula would work out better.

Although, the booze is more of a token gesture than anything I suppose - the more you give the easier it would probably be to give them cash instead. Perhaps we could work in a fail-safe whereby if the number of cases of beer rises over, say, 2 cases...the bottle of spirits or cases of beer should become more valuable?

Cheers - boingk
 
so - I gave him a case of high life and a bottle of jameson's. He was pleased and brought me spare motors and parts!

I like my neighbor.


He says when I am done with these, he'll bring me the chappy that's out at the shop!
