Kia ora and welcome to NZ..........

When you do first get on your bike here, take it easy for a while, until you really get to know our roads.

Oh yeah we ride on the left handside of the roads... :rofl:

Why are you moving from the Isle of Motorcycles?

Belive it or not there are only so many times you can go round the course before you get bored... Iv'e been at it for almost thirty years now..... Belive you have some nice roads/scenery over there :ride: :drinkup:
And it's only a plane ride back for the TT :devil2:

Welcome. Our roads and drivers aren't THAT bad. Sure they try to kill you, but it's not personal.

We'll have to catch you for for a beer and a dinner on our return to NZ next year , we'll be about 30 minutes away (apart from Saturday mornings when it becomes a 1 1/2 hours.) PaulinNZ will almost be your neighbour if you can put up with hours of Guzzi talk. Best of luck with the move .... mooch

Like that N.Z speak. I didn't think I had an accent until I came to live in Oz. Then boy did I know it, and I was reminded about it daily!

He's coming from the UK, our weather's brilliant.

KB's Wellington crew will be more than happy to show you some of the local twisties. Even more so if there's a house warming afterwards.

If there's one thing that gets KBers moving quicker than an excuse for a ride, it's an excuse for a ride followed by a piss-up.

Give me a PM when you get here. I live in Paraparaumu (for the time being) and can show you around a bit. When does the bike arrive?

Raumati Beach is a very good place to move to. Paekakriki hill road nearby and the rimus about an hours ride away. Manfeild raceway is about 2 hours away too :2thumbsup

Yeah that's probably true, but at least it's an excuse to get out on my bike.
