Hey Phaed, welcome to the club!! You'll love it here! :niceone:

[Sniper]

Welcome matey, flaming wont take place till you annoy BB

[Biff]

Ah, a Hyosung Comet. A good bike apparently. In a recent back to back test in a UK bike mag (Comet 500 or 600 V an SV650?) they concluded that the Comet made the SV appear to be overpriced by around $7K!!.

Good on ya mate for buying a bike brand that hardly anybody has heard of and being brave enough to admit it!

Welcome :spudwave:

My dear Phaedrues, whence come you, and whither are you going?

Flames currently set to smoulder.

[Sniper]

Oh yea, beware of Biff_Baff, crazy man this one

[Storm]

Welcome to the site mate. Dont take anything on this site too seriously( as I'm sure you know by now) :)

[Velox]

You buy mud!!!! Oh mate - that's no good at all.

I'm trying to work out your user name - I did Greek, Latin and Classics for a few years but can't quite put my finger on it. I know it's some guy from Greek mythology but who is it?

Anyway - welcome along! :yeah:

Welcome - not too many of you Southern riders. Good to see another :spudwave:

[Ixion]

I shall have to look to my canonicals :msn-wink:

And I'm sure I saw a reference to Sokrates in someone's signature.

Welcome from a fellow new chum

The flaming doesn't start until you state a marked preference for a particular brand of Iron then you'll get nailed from all other sides, your only support being the other losers who like that make... ;)

Welcome aboard etc.

Finding an insurance company willing to take your money is not too hard - it's finding one willing to pay it back if you bin that's tricky.

Safe riding, dude.

I think you were too cryptic Dan. Although I would have thought others might have recognized it...

[phaedrus]

hey, thanks for the welcome guys

Yep, it's a good bike, so far i've only found one "problem" with it, it wants to go faster than i do.

One of the main reasons i got this one is it's size, it's like it was made for me (and being an obsure brand was cheap enough for me to afford new, with full gear)

Moi? :innocent:

My comment was meant for the original poster, anyway. Surely his choice of name and forum was not coincidental.

[Gasman]

Welcome aboard! I'm seeing a few Comets floating around Christchurch, so don't worry, your'e not the only lunatic out there!
All the best, and watch that Kilmog! :niceone:
