    You'll be just like me if you do!

    Dont use those gloves in summer though because you will ruin them.
    Grab some cheap leather gloves from here http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...-Summer-steals
    They are fantastic and you would be silly to miss out on such a deal (assuming he still has some in your size)

    As much as i would love to its a bit pointless and expensive. Was thinking about doing the suspension but its expensive. Exhaust is expensive as well. Any mods you do wont make the bike go any faster. Might make it louder which will make you think its faster. Leave it stock and enjoy riding it until your full.

    Was that the bike from Hamilton that was on trademe?

    Upgrading the exhaust will give you 0.5HP but upgrading the suspension is very worthwhile I've found.

    Shock from a Suzuki SV650. I had to drill the ends out 2mm to fit the GPX which uses wider bolts funnily enough.
    You have to use one from a more modern SV650, the older ones aren't as good as you have to modify more to fit.
