My first thought was blah, raining - bummer but I'd been mucking around with the camera gear and paced the room deciding to go or not. Last minute decission----GO---- So pleased I did. It was an awsome rally ( some of the wettish ones are usually the best ). Took all the camera gear in the hope I could get to use it. I'd tried to tee up with the organisers about 5 months ago to video the event but nothing ever happened so I decided, what the hell, I'll do it anyway. It all turned out good and got ...

This last spring and summer saw the introduction of my fourth bike since May 2006. I got my current bike, CB900 Hornet, in August 2007. With the Givi screen, well recommended, and the Oggie Knobs this bike has served me well and approaching 15,000km and a set of tyres back at 9,500km, I am more than satisfied with the bike and my level of riding ability.

Though I have clocked 40,000km since May 06, there is never a day goes by that I do not reflect on two or more things when I ride. ...

i'm tearing my old girl down and making her into a rough-as-guts streetfighter, codenamed 'widow-maker'..all of you who know about the history of tl-s' will understand!

i'm after a new tail section, late model R6 would be AWESOME, but if anyone on here does custom fibreglassing i've got a particular style that i'm after.

i have a set of '05 cbr600rr headlights which i've already begun modifying but i REALLY want a late-model gsxr 600/750/1000 or faired bandit or even ...

After no ride for a couple of weeks, I made up for it with 2 short rides this week.

On Wednesday I joined the Kiwibikers for the Cruisy ride to the Tin Hutt, departing from Avalon at 1830. On the way there I was happy to ride as TEC so it was very cruisy but on the way back, I left with Dennis and thought I'd have a bit of 'pace' practice. However, shortly after hitting the hill, the light following me, (who I thought was Dennis), passed and turned out to be a GSXR with no Dennis ...

Hi Guys and Girls, Can any one point me in the right direction for a set of race fairings for my bike, I am pricing a set from racers edge but would like to gety a set localy, Just fairings do not do a set for my model. I would consider a second hand set if in good nick. Also I am after a set of rims for the same Bike.

Cheers

A ride over the Wainuiomata Hill and out to the coast, then back to Petone foreshore. A spectacularly calm evening.

North Island - The Great Lower North Island Loop Ride

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Due to circumstances beyond our control, one KB member decided to Ride from Wellngton to Taupo on 15 March 2008. In typical KB fashion, this has been blown all out of proportion with a number of us wanting to go with him and then have a long cruisy ride around the lower north island. We're getting quite keen on the idea now and serious ...
