Guess the new bike round 2
« on: March 30, 2016, 13:56:48 »
Assuming I survive the bit in tonights dinner table conversation where I tell my dear, beloved, knife wielding wife what I spent in my dinner hour, I will shortly own a new bike.

I was going to ask for help naming said new velocipede but the new reg spells it out, so no fear of a repeat of Bonny the Bonneville, or Sally the Sandero or whatever my wife would saddle the poor beast with.
 
For amusement (but sadly no suitable prize this time unless anyone wants a Moto Guzzi bog roll inner oil filter), I will however gladly play round 2 of the guess the bike game with anyone who has nothing better to do.

The rules remain the same: The winner identifies the make, model and colour in a stand alone post in the form "Andys new bike is...". Only one, unequivocally logical question will be answered per post and you have to ask a question before you guess. I reserve the right to be evasive but not actually lie and will answer in the order questions are asked. Extra credit (worthless) will be awarded for amusing suggestions and interesting logic. Fat Rat and the Admin staff have the right to end the game for any reason and it will all be my fault.

Is it Italian?

(And does Mrs. M know where you bought it, in order  to get a refund to help pay for your funeral? )

It is not Italian.

Mrs M knows nothing. I won't be telling her this though.

Yes, one of those  :dl_smiley_banghead:

(and not dodging the question; the parent company is Japanese)

Both incorrect.

Why have I now got the song YMCA in my head fighting for space with the theme from Batman?

Does it have an insect-based, unflattering soubriquet?
