Thought i better introduce myself, I have been here for a little while and even signed up last year, but have only just got my act together and started making some posts.
Anyway as per my user name, if you haven't guessed allready my names is Grant, reside in Sunny Tauranga, been riding on and off for about 5 years.
So if you live in Tauranga don't be shy feel free to message me as i am pretty keen to go on some cruises around the BOP.

Welcome to the site Grant.
The rules are pretty simple:
One in ten posts must be about motorcycles :Offtopic:
Slag off Harleys as much as you can - especially if you have never ridden one.
Call all Honda riders homos - Honda riders who are faster than you are 'fucking homos'
Ensure you start at least one 'did not wave' thread each year. :eek:
Always stick to your guns if you get into a on-site slagging match - especially if the other poster is obviously right. Using the word ' fuck' a lot helps to get your point across. :msn-wink:
Also on group rides - keep away from GSXR's - they crash a lot!
And above all else - have fun - it's a exciting sport/interest we all have and try to enjoy it as much as possible.

How do you find the Versys ? I did seriously consider that model before i ended up going with the naked.

Thanks guys :niceone:
Yeah its been pretty forgiving to me, i am always finding that i am learning something new everytime I get on it.
Definately a great choice of bike to anyone stepping up from a two fitty.

I'm loving the Versys at the moment, only done 750k's though, after a short biking break. Very forgiving like you say, so easy to get on with.
I opted for the Versys just for the riding position in the end, as I was firstly looking for an adventure type bike, but got scared about falling off a new bike learning to off road a bit.
Can't wait for the break-in to end, and open her up a little more! :devil2:

Wicked, I just had my 5k service for this bike. Only been riding it since December so starting to get a few k's behind me now.
I have never really considered the offroad side of adventuring/touring i guess for me its more about the open road. Think i will just settle for a trail bike or something similiar to work on that fetish!

Nothing wrong with a good pack rack on a bike even if it does look a little Metrosexual
