Hah! "little cottage", it's gigantic mansion with about a million bedrooms! big garage, big garden, big lounge, infact big every thing including that bath tub that I had mistaken for a swimming pool! Its a beautiful house from all aspects.

Flatering times but I am affraid that I am not that good yet. I am hoping to be though.

Yeah I wish, plenty around, all poles were outlawed by OSH, since then shit loads of guys have sprained thier ankles running down the stairs, they were always a good sorce of practical jokes,, we used to start small fires at the bottom of the pole and watch the smoke creep up to the top floors :devil2: btw Merv hows that WR going ??

Funny but we own one rental property with a pole - but in the interest of safety I closed off the access to it but the tenants can still jump a balustrade and use it if they want to. The previous owner was a fireman. See pic - that's what you need eh!

As for the WR it is great - check out this thread http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php?t=3047 which is about my ride a week ago. I shortened mine to fit my short arse and so far it has been good especially on gravel roads. Wit the shorter shock I wouldn't want to try and keep up with Darryl King on a track though eh!

You'll see my comment that it goes just a tad quicker than I thought it would - that is on the 14 tooth front sprocket that it came standard with as Aussie spec. I doubt I'll ever put the 13 on unless I do a bit of serious trail riding. That is one piss off of the Yam, the sprockets and rear axle aren't easy change like I was used to with the Hondas and Suzukis. Bugger can't have everything. Only other minus is it is fairly heavy on gas - but I guess the power has to come from somewhere.

Yea well I do hear that it gets a lot colder in the Northern Waikato area. I guess us Jaffas up here in the big smoke just don't get all that cold.
