Have you got a motard endorsment on your licence? You'll need that before you can even sit on your bike

Congrats...

That the one that was on Trademe?

You may find a few 'tarders in the racing section too, if you are after dates or events...

Did you buy the 05 model that was on trademe?
I looked at that one aswell.
Ended up buying the 07 model that was on there at a similar time, from rotorua.
I got both setups tard and dirt. only had it out 5 or so times in the first month. One time with the tard wheels on it and it went very well. Been having a bit of fun in the dirt.
I'm waiting for a taupo trackday on track 2. ( the new short loop) You will need to gear up to a 15/40ish for track one as it's got a real long straight. I've yet to get it up to decent corner speed with the road tyres on it. feels very agile on the seal as opposed to the dirt.
Hope you have as much fun on yours as I'm having with mine.
Cheers
Nick
