Hey, kids! Captain Hero here with Getting Laid Tip 213 - The Backrub Buddy!
Find a chick who’s just been dumped and comfort her by massaging her shoulders, and soon, she’ll be massaging your prostate.

Say PF ya need to talk to Madduck. She has had the same problem.
One comment I would make is that a lot of bikes can have their seats modified to suit shorter riders. For example I could cut about 50mm of foam out of the FXR seat and still have plenty of padding.
Mind you keep in mind my rear doesn't spend a lot of time in the seat.
To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?
That's quite a neat bike Charlie, it looks a lot like a Yamaha Diversion. If you're 173cm then you probably won't understand the problems the shorties amongst us have, you're a giant! You're about 5'8", so if the bike is just right for you, then it would be way too big for most of us. I'm 153cm - 20cm shorter than you - and by the sound of it, a lot of those looking for suitable bikes for learners aren't much taller.
While a lot of bikes can be modified to suit shorter riders, many are still not a good option as they are very wide - my Beemer is a prime example. Nothing much you can do to change this as the width is what causes problems. Someone suggested an up-and-over measurement which is a good idea as it would sort out which bikes are the best for shorties!
Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!
This sounds like a fine idea.Originally Posted by Goddess of Goof

Just the right height for me... see my avator pic.

I'm a westie....
Been back riding for the past 5 years and loving it.
I did ride many a year ago thou...lol.
Yep I do some work on my bike, and sometimes I have a wee helping hand from a good friend of mine.
At the mo thou I am not allowed to ride my bike until at least the beginning of July. (recovering from adominal Hysterectomy)
But I will be back riding.
I have been on many a KB ride and enjoyed riding with everyone.
Done the Coromandel loop twice now... and only stopped for a lunch break which was good. dunno about those coffee breaks thou...lol Just grab a bottle of fluid and pitstop when ya have to refuel up.
The Coromandel Loop is a great bike ride and its a long one.
I have ridden with MadDuck, Riff Raff, Lucyloo and Draco so far...
Well should I say they took off past me... hehehehe
cos Im the Queen of slow on the KB rides.

I was looking at joining WIMA a while back but couldn't find enough info on them... would you be able to PM me any info? Thanks in advance...Originally Posted by Lucyloo
Hey crashe, hope your feeling 100% soon and back on your bikeyou must be missing it heaps
My partner and I are keen to go on a group ride sometime, but doing our restricteds soon and then the Ride Right Ride Safe course this weekend, and then hopefully next week my partner gets her new bike (A ZXR250 -- She FINALLY took my advise and had a scoot around Akoranga Campus car park on my ZXR, the ride height is perfect for her as the ZXR is fairly low...) But anyway as soon as she's on her new bike we'll be keen to join any group rides to get our experience up![]()

The course you are doing this weekend, I did it 5 years ago... a great course..
listen and learn and do as they say..... and it will make a huge difference.
When you arrive, take ya keys out of your bike, dont go near your bike unless they say so and don't turn on the bike unless they say so... hehehe.
Have fun learning to countersteer, weaving and riding the plank.
I'm looking forward to it... I've proberly picked up a few bad habits as it is...Originally Posted by crashe
Riding the plank sounds like fun![]()
