That way you get in strife BUT you still get to keep it :-)
I agree Fung; I just routinely forget to tell her even after its arrived.

If I ever get found out for buying FCR's the month before Christmas I dread to think what the consequences would be. All my bike kit gets delivered straight to work with payment rhrough my own credit card. Looking at moving house soon so it seems easy paying £800 for a lovely set of carbs when you may soon have to cram £3k into the hand of an estate agent and cough up another £10k to the govt in thieving stamp duty.

Now how about that Sigma slipper clutch.............

Oh and the used motor; I hope someone buys it soon or I may have to get it ready for the day when mine does its crank. The more I see and hear about crank failure the more it makes me think I had better whip the sump off and check the strainer. That blinking oil light on tick over could actually be telling me something. Gaskets/deals ordered today.

:? I think PWM missed out on a great opportunity,however finances must I suppose,You could have tried a candle lit dinner for 2, rose petals and a violinist etc!
As for moving house, contact the seller, get them to take it off the market, 2 months later you have a deal less the estate agents asking price of course. Saved me £5k!
