Hi all,
My name's Gwenda, been riding for about 12 years now, 10 of them on my trusty steed the Yamaha Virago 750 but last year I had to sell up, which was a bummer. Hope the guy in Ashburton who bought it is loving it too.
But I have recovered now from my brain fade and decided on my new bike-to-be after taking out a Buell in March for a longish test ride from the loverly AMPS people.
Okay ...yes very different to the Virago, but my mate Deb literally swears by hers (sometimes good, sometimes bad) and I loved the Firebolt I took out, so gotta save my pennies to get one. That is the one (and only) good thing about selling my old bike, I get to look for a new one!
Just wanted to say 'Hi' to you all
Gwenda AKA Rashika

Hi, Gwenda/Rashika! :spudwave:
Welcome to the KiwiBiker gargre! :ride:
That wasn't very entertaining, was it? Sorry - I'll try and do better next time. It's nearly 5 PM, and I have had my anti-nutter pill this afternoon...

Hi Gwenda
Welcome to the KB Gargre :wavey:
Good luck on saving for your new beast. Once you've got bikes in your blood there's no getting away from them. Watch out for some of the Christchurch KBers - they're dirty little ho's (eh Biff?)

Hi, Gwenda/Rashika- welcome aboard
A Buell is definitely a bit different to an XV750! How long till you get the cash to buy one?

Good to have another member aboard. I agree with you, the Buell's ARE very nice bikes. I very nearly bought one a few months back.
Enjoy the site and the wonderful people on it.
Take care and RIDE SAFE

You ugly bastard! How the hell we gonna get more chicks onboard here with you scaring them off after only one post!?
Good one........

HA!
I dont scare off that easily, been around bikes for awhile now, just not recently.
Not to mention working with mostly blokes all my life....work with printers all my life and they aint the sweetest members of public at times.
In ans the questions:
I'm hoping to get a new bike summerish, one summer without one was enough, but will have to see how finances go. Just sold/bought house so it needs a few things doing first, will get there tho.
Dont know about calling me Gwen tho..........kidding, dont mind really
And I did love my Virago, pretty damn good bike, reliable and with enough get up to bugger off when i needed too. I used to live in Gov bay till a couple of months ago, and it loved the drive over the hill most days...me too as a matter of fact!
Better head of to work...damn it all...but if i dont that bike wont get any closer!

Yippee, another Virago rider (and there's no such thing as an "ex-virago-rider" - you'll be back on one soon, you won't be able to stay away for long)!
I'm in Dunedin, love my 1100 Virago, and looking forward to warmer weather :cold:

you know that pic looks just like my old one....minus a few cc's that is...ah I do miss it
and yep will always have a soft spot for them, they are so easy to ride.
I think I wanna be one of those people who has a couple of bikes, one for all occasions...a Buell for some playing, and the Virago for cruising...now I'm off to win Lotto cos that would be the only way that THAT dream would happen :-)

Hey Gwenda
How tall is the buell? Would one suit a short-arse?
Hope you get that bike real soon, especially as we're having some sunny days.:ride:

Funnily enough I'm not sure it's height, it fits me okay but I'm 5 ft 8. My friends in Auckland has one tho and she is a shortarse, about 5 ft 2-3 I think....sorry debs, dont mean to call you short ;-) Honest!
and gawd damn the weather has been good lately, and I'm stuck here watching it :-(
