Hi Vulcan2000 - I have myself one of these babies! Imported from New Jersey. It was love at first site. A great ride, and very forgiving (if you can hang on) .......

I don't have a vulcan, but do have a honda shadow if you're keen to join up for a ride at some stage.

Well yes I do

*reads from ownership card that came with bike*
"I am proud to own a honda, I am stong enough in my secksuality that the type of bike I own does not affect it, how's yours going?"

:P

Just extracting the urine matey.

I own a Harley W/g so people take the piss all the time. It's going very well actually, thanks for asking. Had to go on a course the other day and thought I'd give it a workout. Over the Wongamoas and through Havelock, almost to Blenheim, then back just before sundown. Bit of a bummer facing the sun both ways but all good fun anyway. Followed a cop back over the hills who wasn't afraid of his SV6 Commodore until it came to the straight bits! Didn't top 115, pissed me off.

(Mind you, his speedo is probably more accurate than mine, so in reality it was probably only 109.99kph.)

How's yours going?

I know you were :P

It's good mostly, biggest bike I have owned, stepped up from n LS650 Savage.

I'll be honest and say at times it scares the shit out of me. But I get off the bike after a good ride and am grinning from ear to ear and don't regret it.

It's just a matter of more saddle time.

Although she did have her first oops in the frost a few weeks ago, ding to tank, bent bars and a few scratches. However Advance motorcycles down here were great at getting her back on the road.

Will get some pics up soon.

Oops is never a good thing, you're ok though? Bikes can be fixed/replaced whatever the time frame.

Enjoy.
