    We have a tractor in the family

    mrs S got her new bike on Sunday & rode it back from Blenheim to Christchurch then Christchurch to home.... an awesome effort, as it was her first ride after her wee off in April... other than being on the back with me a few times.....
    we were looking at bike boots when the sales guy asked what she was looking at getting, she said some thing low & that could cruse at 100km with out struggling & over take when she needed to, he took her over to the 883 super low rider... she sat on it & said this is what I want....
    she found this on trade me.... putting on hot grips & top box screen is coming
    great to riding with my lady again

    A brave move Mrs S.! (Especailly since you're married to a self-confessed H-D-phobe!)

    And you'll find it a perfectly usable stylish bike - as long as you know where the gas-stations are!

    Get a set of bog discs behind it, or a silage wagon and she should keep up with the rest of the 50kmh gearbox tractors on the road.
    Glad she is recovered enough to enjoy.

    Noice! The road is good down the coast at the moment too so she timed it well. I'm sure she'll enjoy the new machine =)

    I was looking for where they hide the PTO output. Some pretty trick design work blending it in like that XD

    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....

    I have heard that of Ducati riders (vibrations n' all) just don't let her near the tassel shop Keith.
