    the fogging issue is reduced by cracking the visor open one notch-usually theres a luil lever cracks it about 5mm. Ive heard of cat crap and heard its good stuff.
    Tyres wise Im thinking you need to see what the mini twins and 150ss guys are using. For some reason metzler Lasertec keeps leaping into my mind as a reasonable mid range tyre.
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    I feel the same way.

    And when it doesn't excite you ... its time to give it away ...
    When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...

    Thanks...I think this is what the man is sorting for me. good on the man.

    I titled this thread...Let the fun begin. It has. I am having so much fun.
    I'm a much better mother (I'm so so happy) and I have been doing the big jobs around the house and my reward....a ride on the little black beast.
    Genie loves to ride....Genie was born to ride!!!!!

    hehehe, won't need to sell the house, have double and a half garage underneath!

    Bigger bike, would love to, but I must wait, only a wee learner, though funny thing happened today.
    Whilst out riding, I accidently went over 70kph and my bright yellow 'L' plate blew off!!!!!
    Shock horror!!!!
    I'm such a bad wee lass, oh well guess I will just have to ride over 70kph. Honestly, it's dangerous on the open road to ride at that speed.

    Feeling rather bad as I did cause death and destruciton, killed about 7 bees or other flying insects today, someone's mummy or daddy is not coming home tonight.

    I never thought that the mat of dead bugs accross my visor and screen would have a mummy or daddy, Will probably smile whenever I clean the little buggers off now.

    Fun is really fun....went around the block today and killed more bugs. Geez those ones that smack into your legs kinda 'ouch'. the bouncing off the visor is funny. Had to dodge a couple of birds, they fly close to the wind!

    Super sunny day, opened up the air vent thingy's on my jacket, hehehe, that tickled.

    Nelson has gorgeous roads to ride, the scenery and the smells, not all polluted and smoggy.

    And some nice friendly bikers out there, I'm not up to waving back, holding on for now. The waves are kinda cool, there are a lot of bikes on the road that I'd not noticed before, odd!!! Bad.
    Riding a bike is way more than fun, it's exercise for my mind, my body and my soul.

    I'm going to get up real early and go ride my bike.
