I know there will be people out there that buy bikes just to look at and keep mint,if I was one of those I,d have bought a poster, lol but after paying all that money, I,m certainly gonna ride it, it would be rude not to, mind you I think the misses would have prefered me to just buy a poster tho...

Yep, it is in the UK.... but that wasn't the statement.
Who is Mr Salmond? Haven't heard of him on my little Island....

Jolley it was the statement by Iang27 who simply said Glen 6464's was the second in the UK.
He didn't claim that it was the first in England.
Glen6464 said his was the first in England.
Both statements might well be true.
Is this the 5 minute or the 10 minute argument?

It is a 2 minute non-argument. Someone stated his could not be the first in the UK because a Guy in Glasgow had his first, but the poster had only claimed to be the first in England, not the first in the uk. Whether or not it was the first in the UK and England is irrelevant because the statement was simply it was the first in England, so to counter that one in Glasgow might have beaten it is a non-argument because Glasgow is not in England!

I'll have the first one in Europe if it's available - dont mind if it's left hand drive as long as it's got pump up tyres and you get wafers with it!
