hey guys dodo`` here, its been around 4 month since Ive sold my old suzuki vz800 and left NZ.
I'm please to say now I am all settled and started to ride again since last week. I decided to.. .. well, forced to go for the cheap and cheerful option due to having no money phenomena, Ive ended up with hyosung gt250. Traffics are so effing chaos here Ive witnessed at least 10 accidents on the road here since arrival. anyway Im doing it and loving it. :headbang:

Ive done sports for around 2 years, cruisers for a year, and wee scooters on and off. First time on the naked bikes, and Im absolutely loving it. Not too tired on my arms & wrists nor on the back. as soon as I get used to the road and the surroundings I am planning to move on to Honda Hornet cb600f 2007 onwards. Ive nerver realised how sexy those looked before. Im sure lot of you have experiences with the famous hornets, any comments? Cant wait. Any how.. I miss NZ roads where you dont get killed everyday.

WTF are the Aussies now trying to steal our worse drivers in the world title as well now?! Like Russell Crowe, they are welcome to it. Be careful out there Dodo.

Head west thru Bells Line of Road, stop at the Mt Tomah botannical gardens and if you can find the time, get over to Jenolan Caves. In fact, see if you can pre book a night accom there first. The coast rd south and round to Wilsons Promontory is also full of cool! Incl the back roads.

Welcome to the swarm! A nice bike you got there, will be just the ticket to tide you over until you get the funds together for a new ride! Enjoy learning the new roads to ride on safely! :scooter:

Just saw this year and a half old thread and got a stroll down memory lane.
When you posted this post I had no idea where Jenolan Caves was.
I've changed bike 3 times since then, ended up going their 2 weeks ago on something completely different from hyosung 250! Ate 500km for lunch this day ;)
