    Last orders please, Ladies & Gentlemen. Time

    Yep, that's what they used to say in pubs in Britain when they were 10 minutes before closing time.......

    However.....at the risk of being boring.......it's very soon going to be 'Time' on orders for the left hand side rear wheel bearings which I've sent to XSives around the entire world..........

    I have 10 left for sale and that's it. No more. I can't get any more. C'est la fin de l'histoire. Der Ende. Finito. I've sold 90 of the original stock of 100, obtained with great difficulty by yours truly, in order to sort out my own bike and single-handedly conquer Captain Unobtanium.

    So, Folks, this is not a hussle, merely a newsflash. If you want one of these bearings, it really is reaching 'Time, ladies and gentlemen, please', OK? If you find you need one of these bearings sometime a few years down the line, don't say I didn't warn you!

        Total would be $70 (US) for those including airmail delivery. I'd prefer to sell now if I can though, as it's approaching the time of goodwill, festive cheer and expenditure.

            They're now packed and ready to go off to you tomorrow by airmail. Takes about 10 days for Australia......

              At first I thought you were selling time and I could certainly use more of that right now... but having the bearings is always a great thing too especially when you have a stable of these bikes (which we do)

              Did I read that correctly? $70 for two? or $70 each? Sorry, it's early here.
              At the first price, I might need to take advantage of this and at least get one for future use...

                    Hi Kat. I see you just bought one of the bearings! Yep, you read that previous posting correctly.... they're not expensive and I'm selling them cheaper than my steering head bearing cost me. I deserve a medal. Or a halo. For my services to the XS1100

                      Hey James, got one on order as well. Thanks for the service!!

                      Medal, isn't that what the bike is made out of, why would you need more of that? We could give you an award for being so humble though. But I find that tends to run deep on that side of the pond anyway.
                      Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

                      When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
