I finally got my motorcycle today. That is of course why it is pissing with rain in Palmerston North. I wanna go play!
Cursed weather!

True, but I am really just a girly wuss at heart :o
And I don't want to encourage the throat goblin I appear to be cultivating :sick:

In that case, ya big blouse, why don't you wip out your digital camera and show us all a picture of your new beast? :bleh:
Or, if no camera, tell us what it is, why you bought it, and what you intend to do with it!!!

Hey, get it right, that's *Big Girls Blouse* thankyou!
I got a '97 Yamaha SRV 250. I bought it 'cos I'm bored with being a pillion and I'm even more bored with having to ride a crummy bicycle everywhere.
So it's mainly for learning and commuting to/from work, but it'll have enough go to get me out to the beach if we *ever* have a sunny day.
I'll work on getting a piccy once I've weasled the digital camera off a friend....

Congratulations!!
The SRV250 rocks. A great choice for a first bike, with few bad habits. You'll love it to bits.
There are tonnes of good reviews on this wee beauty. Start with this one http://www.arcomnet.net.au/~millal/SRV250.htm

Congratulations on the new bike, might see you out sometime, although I'm normally riding in the rain :(

The bike will occasionally explode, killing you and everyone else within a 50 metre radius.
No worries though, eh? Remarkable bike, the SRV. Lovely plumage!

Ah, so the prescribed action if this were to happen then, would be to leap two hundred feet into the air and spread myself over a large area?

Too late, I suspect. He's probably had his rubber underwear on all afternoon and by now should be well into his sixth pack of cream cheese...

(So this is a repetitive event?)
Its passed on! This bike is no more! It has ceased to be! Its expired and gone to meet its maker! Its a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the floor it'd be propping up the weeds! Vis-a-vis its mechanical processes, its had its lot! Its off the tarmac! Its kicked the bucket, Its shuffled off its coil, run down the road and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-Motorbike!!!!!

Yes he does seem a little bit more excitable than usual. Too much Karma Sutra on Christmas Day I'd say. :yeah:

Blame my advisor for the pic size!
Does updating my profile count if I can't ride the damn thing yet? :msn-wink:

Really nice bike!
I liked the green ones myself but I have no sense of style!
Don't take it out just yet! Man did it RAIN! Debris all over the bloody place, shw1 screwed again (2 places this time) and pie-cock hill down to 1 lane. It will take a couple of days to sort out!
Fark, that was not rain! More like a slow tidal wave! I have seen water standing in places I never have before!
