Oh no, why?
I guess you aren't using her enough?

Re: Sym Jet 100
It's not that she isn't getting much use, but when I move out at the weekend my new home only has enough room for one bike under cover and even that's a pain to get it parked. Plus the bloody insurance is goning up on the PCX because it won't be in a garage but a shed complete with "rich unbustable ground anchor" (patent not pending )
Adds £30 quid to insurance even though I'm only moving 1 bloody mile!!
Hey ho Hmmmm - the complexities of British insurance.

Re: Sym Jet 100
Is that the monthly increase!? That's more than I pay per month for full coverage in the USA! The more I hear about insurance in the UK, the more I think it's just a racket controlled by the mafia.

Re: Sym Jet 100
Come on guys be realistic the Mafia!? and Satan? - They're less of a pain.
The real culprits are the Government - they set the rules by which insurance is governed and meted out to the public. I'm just glad it's only £30 extra for the year (not monthly). I deliberately waited to move until the insurance was up so I wouldn't pay an admin fee(usually £25-30 on top of any increase!)
Could do without it mind - spending enough on moving - bed, carpet, paint for room etc. Mind my new TV was a bit of a bargain.
Oh and Woolley - I won't have anything said against Satan - he is my dad after all!

I'd rather forget about "that" Jacket thank you very much - my mum bought it and it doesn't suit my complexion

Re: Sym Jet 100
I've been up so long now I got used to it.
Back on Topic. Put the Sym up on Gumtree 2 days ago and haven't had anyone ringing or emailing about it yet.
Guess it could be on there for a while which is a shame as I could do with the money for a new PC when I finally move out later today!

Re: Sym Jet 100
I'm back!!!
Finally got everything moved and sorted, got settled in and last night the phone rang about the SYM. Today at 12.30 we parted company, him taking the SYM, half a bottle of 2 stroke, a chain and lock(with all 3 keys) and me with £400 in my pocket and a little bit happier.
So I went out this afternoon and bought myself a shiny new Dell Laptop and a new Fuji Bridge Camera.

Re: Sym Jet 100
Got myself a Finepix S3200 14m 24x optical zoom with superwide lens and 10cm Macro. On sale at Asda .
That plus the Laptop only came to just over £400. So overall I'm a happier Bunny at the minute.

Awesome cameras. Mines a couple models up from that I think, 30x manual zoom and I think it's 16 megapixel. Can take 360 degree panoramic pictures and stuff. I had the s2500 before that which is a few models down from yours. I only upgraded because where I work had the hs20 in stock and if i traded mine in towards it with my discount it was less than £100 on top for it. So much better than a compact but no hassle of changing lenses etc.
