Fallen off the wagon

[avrflr]

Having binned my irreplaceable, uninsured gixxer I swore off bikes forever. I've quit cigarettes, alcohol and heroin but damn, bikes were the worst. As Frosty predicted, after a week I was jonesing pretty bad so I relapsed.

I got on to trademe and bought another bike. I told myself I would just get a commuter bike, that it was the sensible thing to do to save money on petrol. Since I didn't need to go fast any more I figured I may as well get a Honda. So I got a 600 Hornet. You can stick cbr cams in hornet right? And a loud pipe, obviously. Then it'll need a Power Commander. Somebody stop me, I need help. Sticky tyres, ohlins suspension. Excuse me, I have to call my dealer.

P.S. Somewhere in my post crash haze I lost my gloves. They were green teknics coloured in with vivid so they looked kind of dark purple (they were cheap OK). If anyone has them lying around, I would be internally grateful to have them back:).

Someone mentioned having your gloves, at the pub............anyone?

[kickingzebra]

You need support at a time like this... So we'll support you by giving you a legup onto the bike, and loaning you a pair of gloves.... Problem is you have to get to hamilton to get them!

[SPman]

Mini chopper?

The man said "2 wheel bliss", not "2 wheel blasphemy".

I just had my first ride on the hornet. I had a bit of a giggle, it feels a bit like a farm bike. I haven't been on anything that wasn't a pure sprotsbike in over 10 years, but it has reminded me of something I knew long ago and had forgotten - that anything with 2 wheels and a motor is fun.

[FROSTY]

Once you've done that, you can apprently fit a whole gixxer behind the front end too....
