Howdy All

um a little about me:
Am 17 years Old with Full Motorcycle License(Yay!)
Been riding bikes since i was 9, and brought my first a couple of months ago,
Its a 1988 Honda Bros 650 in mint condition. And I love it. Enjoy tight sweaping corners on backroads, and am out on it every weekend.

wish more youths were into bikes so i had some riding partners
but the youth of today seem to be into cars that make poof off
noise's as they go up and down the main street a zillion times.

....must be a dying breed.....

just thought i'd introduce myself.

Nice choice of bike... I've heard good stuff about them and have been meaning to try and wangle myself a test ride or something on a 650 version at some point. All the bike shops seem to have are 400s

Hi finerd, welcome to KB. You've got some nice roads up your way. We go to the Waikato quite a bit and often come back via Taranaki because the Awakino Gorge and Mt Messenger are great roads.

Nice bike, one of my mates down here's got one.

Hey Thanks For the comment guys
There Still might be another Honda Bros 650 for sale at masterton motorcycles
And another one in Palmerston norths ANZA(which i took for a test ride but seemed to be a older verson and not so good condition,although he did lower the price to $3995 and had a nice big exaust)

Its a good bike, Very Compacted together, and could do with bigger fuel tank but im not complaining.Not All that fast but 35 demerit points and a $230 fine later, I now think its fast enough for me.

Welcome Finerd. Good to see Taranaki people on this site! My old stomping ground and still the source of some of my favourite rides. The Bros 650 is a nice ride. Masterton Motorcycles have still got a very tidy one at a sharp price!
