Hey guys,
I'm Simon. Yeah, my nickname is Simey, it's all good, so long as you don't say it like a pedophile.
I was at the chiller on Friday, if you can figure out who I am.
So yeah, just thought I would introduce myself and post some pics of my bad ass chopper.

Yes, Stephen has a unnatural fetish for all things Honda.

Welcome to the club mate, and look forward to seeing you on a ride - SMCTNR is tomorrow night... ;)

Oh yeah. Is this "I'm a raging dictator" club pres Stephen? I'll keep an eye on that guy, he seems a bit shifty.
Yeah, I might come on the TNC tomorrow. Do you guys do a petrol stop along the way? I don't know if my tank is good for it, eh. :laugh:

Just did some math, traveling to Hamilton I manage just over 5l per 100kms. with a twelve litre tank, so I have some headroom. :-)

I wish my serious classes were done. :-( 9:00am start Friday and a test.

Man.. a test in week 3(i think its week 3 now...)? your lecturers seem to be quite eager people...
Been few weeks already and all my papers seem to just be starting any proper content, weird semester.

I got a test too, and the start of a project due on friday, not to mention lab thursday for 3 hours.

Some people have all the luck.

Heh, with my hobo beard stephen is looking alot less shifty in comparison

that's 20km/L - which is about what I get on only a slightly larger tank

One would expect a 250 twin to do better than that, i used to get 30km/L out of my VTR.

yeah, my shoddy xs250 got better than that, about 150km a tank and about $12 dollars max to fill up, thats 6l, 25km/L and thats very negatively biased, so its more than that really

Dunno, eh. I was guessing on the conservative side. I know she gets better economy around town than on the open road.
Meh, as long as she keeps starting first time, I'll forgive her.
