Hiya guys
Rode back my new honda spada VT250 3 days ago, first time on the motorway and first time going over 100 and after going up and down the road abit getting a feel for the bike I got it from wellington back to kapiti in one piece, just before it started pissing down :)
Loving it so far, went over the rimutakas yesterday and loved every minute of it untill on the way back I ran out of fuel in between pukera bay and paekakariki lol, made it down the road abit using the reserve tank and had to get the old lady to come to the rescue with a can hehe.
Is great to see all the other bikers out on the motorway, thanks to the ones giving me the wave :D
Have to say riding an mb100 for a few years has really helped me take to a bigger bike, still getting used to using the clutch more on this one and this 1 down 4 up business with the gears is taking some getting used too but a couple more missions and I'll be confident :)
