Been craving a bike since I sold my last one a little while ago, was thinking sv1000 or similar but after deciding to move closer to the center and do some real learning at the track motards are making more sense. Probably a KTM 525 or xr650r at this point..

Trying to track down if there is any life in the motard scene and not having much luck, is anyone doing days at the kart tracks or that kind of thing?

Thanks, guess I'll see what the bucket heads are up to.

Dorkland? Yeah well unfortunately as much fun as cities with less population than a Tokyo backyard BBQ sound, the money is pretty good here. Just a pity everything costs so much.

Hahaha. Yep. Getting close to being worth shipping the stuff over my damn self.

I work on the basis that the Remuera tractor wives will complain to their politically influential husbands waay before it starts being a serious inconvenience to me. Less idiot tanks can't be such a bad thing right?

Get in touch with theese guys (https://www.facebook.com/Motoworks) i know they at least used to be a big part of the motard scene down here playing a big part in sorting the track our at Ruapuna.
