[Joni]

Well, no bike for Christmas, but I have my eye on a real beauty.... and my birthday is not too far away.... :whistle:

Yup, I think Im gonna - wooohoooo!

[Skunk]

[StoneChucker]

I looked in my "stocking" and found a lump of coal. Is that bad?

[Coyote]

I got a nice West Coast Chopper. Diablo II Sturgis Special. Gold with black flames. 1:10 scale, made by Muscle Machines. Awesome :niceone:

Another 125 is it? what advantages does the yamie have over the Kawa?

[Liv, Norway]

No bike under the Christmas three?
Too bad...

:-) Liv.

[aff-man]

closest i got was a game "superbike racing" and some glove inners and a reflective helmet sticker form my sis in the uk

[Juan]

closest I got was "The Long way Round" and Billy's "World tour of NZ"... :cool2:

Oh well only six months to my birthday :innocent:

Friend of ours got a Z1000 for her xmas :eek: she is happy :gob:

[Racey Rider]

I got a bike on Boxing day.
Had to pay for it my self though. (Had to sell my saxaphone :crybaby: )

Picked up another KR150 for $500
Bit ruff, but it's got the barrell I need to get my KR racer back on the track.

If been struggling to fine a secondhand barrell for 6 months. Brand new cost is over $900, So with this $500 bomb, I hopefully get a useable barrell and heaps of other spares as well.

[laRIKin]

Another 125 is it? what advantages does the yamie have over the Kawa?

No it a 225cc motor, think of a XT250, it the same thing but called a Serow.

If you look at it closely it is a up spec model, as it has a rear disc and
adjustable rear shock, you can just see the remote rear dampener on the
front frame down tube.
They all so come with the button to make starting easy.
By the way it's regoed etc, and goes real well, but a bit soft in the
suspension for my weight and riding, but is fine for Sal.
Sal does not have big wheel envy any more and can ride with the grown ups.
Now I'm running for cover.

PS:
AND SAl say's it's PINK. (I think I will have to do some painting)

[Nutter34]

Got a black Z1000. Let the playing commence....

[Bonez]

:-) Liv.Any idea on the origin of the name Scarver?

[Stevo]

No new bike. Hopefully though the parts I need to get a warrant for the F4 will arrive this week so I can get riding the mighty Hoonda.

[moko]

Any idea on the origin of the name Scarver?

Read somewhere that it comes from "S(treet) Carver" i.e. good in traffic,dosnt sound very Germanic I know but I believe it was designed by the same Brit designer that did the original F650 and lumbered it with "Funduro",also not terribly Germanic.

[MSTRS]

I got 'Great Escapes' - does that count?

[Mars]

I got 'The essential guide to motorcycle maintenance', yay! - now I'm learnding!:unsure:

[Bonez]

Everyone is going to know I'm there, I can tell you! :2guns: :devil2:

[Yokai]

Long Way Round, The flying Kiwi thing about the woman on the Motorbike (to inspire Mrs Yokai), Draggin Jeans, and my bike came back from the shop! YAY!

[Ms Piggy]

Ok who got want motorcycle for xmas :Playnice:
Me! Me! I got a CBR750! It's red and very grunty! I'll post pics later. :shifty:

[James Deuce]

Me! Me! I got a CBR750! It's red and very grunty! I'll post pics later. :shifty:

You're joking!!! Really?

[Ms Piggy]

You're joking!!! Really?
Yes really. Here's a really bad pic of it - sorry I don't have a great digital camera but, you get the idea.

[Wonko]

Cash from Mum and Dad = New spedo cable for me, which broke on Christmas eve 2.6 km's south of Bombay heading to Paeroa.

Been interesting tearing around since then, not knowing my speed. :headbang:

[FROSTY]

well baby bikie found a new bike in his stocking -lil bugger went through 5 tanks of gas in one day --sheesh

[moko]

Got the book "Long Way Round",great read did it in a couple of days-worth of spare hours(fast reader).Also got myself a really cheap CRM250 from a bike dealer off of Ebay,trouble is it was such a bargain it seems extremely likely that the bastard is trying to wriggle out of the deal,every time I phone him there`s a different excuse.Paid for it with plastic as in Britain at least(though not mainland Europe)the law says that whatever you buy on your credit card(though not debit card) is the responsibility of the Bank,so if he keeps pissing around I`ll go to them for a full refund and they can get their money from him.Dont want the money though,want the bike and am rapidly getting very pissed off.Part of me is pretty sure that he`ll come up with some crap about it being stolen or something and offer me all my money back,which will have tided him over very nicely over the holidays as virtually an interest-free loan.

[Blakamin]

Yes really. Here's a really bad pic of it - sorry I don't have a great digital camera but, you get the idea.
I got one of those... its an R1200rr tho.... (or so it says)
and a remote cbr400r

[Bonez]

and a remote cbr400r
Is that a bit like the virtual bike mikey rides :eek5:

[Motu]

I was supposed to be going south to look at a bike this week,but on Xmas Eve we gave ourselves one hell of a bigger present,my bike money will have to be held for a back up as all other money is gone,or will be soon,the bike will come a bit later....I hope.

Got a Fly MX helmet,and a very,very special book - Ralph Watson,Special Engineer....for those who may have heard the name,the man who built The Lycoming Special.

[Stevo]

Lucky Sue, eh?!?!? :gob:

Everyone is going to know I'm there, I can tell you! :2guns: :devil2:

You're kidding! Thought you'd be savin them for the new bike in any case?

[laRIKin]

Well I have just got my late Xmas bike.

Since we got a regoed Yamaha Serow XT250 for my partner.(early Xmas pressie)

It was only fair that I got a new bike as well.
So I traded in the 00 KTM 520 EXC and Sal's 03 Kawasaki KLX 125 L for a
03 KTM 640 LC4.

So I can adventure ride and do general riding with her.
I did not like the idea of doing low speeds on the Guzzi, as the bike and I
do not do that very well.

So far I have not found the extra weight a problem and can't wait to take it
out for a good off road ride. Bash plate is on order and a fitment kit so I
can fit a spare set of Bark Busters I have.

Now I have to resist the temptation to Motard it.

So look out Dangerous next time you are in the hills. :whistle:

Heres a pic of my new toy looks like.

[sels1]

Got the motobike calander....
And a cute little digital camera to take pics when out for rides!

[James Deuce]

Yes really. Here's a really bad pic of it - sorry I don't have a great digital camera but, you get the idea.

Thanks. I really love feeling like a dick.

I believe you are right, Moko!

My baby loves hairpin bends! ....not sure I do all the time...
Between Gudvangen (Nærøyfjorden) and Voss you find Stalheimskleivene; a wery bendy road! And I met a bus on my way up; I nearly wet my pants....

:-) Liv.

[moko]

I nearly wet my pants....

:-) Liv.

But would you have posted THAT picture Liv?

[Monsterbishi]

I pickup my new toy in a few hours, '94 YZF750R, could get it on Christmas day since Trevor Pierce rightfully enough gave everyone the weekend off :-)

So I signed up here in the meantime...

[Slim]

You're kidding! Thought you'd be savin them for the new bike in any case?
There's still no price on the new Triumphs, so there's no telling how long it'll take for them to actually land in the country. :brick:

Anyway, The Man can stuff it up installing them on my Honda and it'll give him practice for when he has to re-mount them to the Triumph. :laugh:
