(Relatively) new to motorcycles and Kiwi Biker

[hardy-DAYTONA]

Hey guys, I joined this site a while ago but haven't really been too active. Thought it was time to introduce myself.

My name is David, I just turned 21 on Friday and I'm from Tokoroa. I ride a Keeway Cruiser 2010 250cc I'm on my Learner's licence hoping to upgrade to my Restricted once I can afford it.

I've always been into bikes and always had the attitude like "ONE DAY, I'll have a motorbike" but never thought I'd have one so young. A mate of mine bought a 1980 Honda CG110, (at the time) the awesomest bike I'd ever seen, so I started saving up for a small bike. My mate bought a Hyosung 250cc and was looking to sell his CG, so I bought it, but never rode it because I couldn't get it to start *whistles*

I almost immediately wanted to upgrade and saw the sexiest bike (250 or less) I'd ever seen, the Keeway Cruiser, unfortunately I had just spent all of my savings on a crappy CG110 so was short $5000 for the Keeway...

One day, I got home from work, my wife sat down next to me and said "Guess what, you're going to be a dad..." my immediate reaction was "I'm buying that bike NOW or I'll never get it" followed by "Wait... What?... A dad?!?" follwed by the mix of the usual cocktail of emotions: Happiness, Fear, Anxiety, ETC.

So I bought the bike and then my best mate sold his so now I don't have anyone to ride with...


Thanks for reading,
and if you liked my short story +rep

Now that's thinking straight!

Now that's thinking straight!

When I told my mum (Who really really wanted to be a nana) I said "Guess what?! I'M GETTING A MOTORBIKE!... oh, and you're going to be a nana"

She was over the moon... About the baby, I mean...

Anyway, I'm glad I finally have my bike. I just need to get a few more hours experience under my belt and then go for my restricted.

Excellent,
Your wifey wont be liking the new order of things,

My partner knows how it works now that I have a bike, there is a set order on priorities,

1/. Motorbike,
2/. Motorbike Maintenance,
3/. Fapping over motorbike,
4/. Riding motorbike,
5/. Riding Her.

I guess you will have to squeeze the baby in there somewhere..

Just one small issue with that order.

Unless baby moves up to number 1, number 5 moves down to 'when hell freezes over'.

Haha, Are you speaking through experience?

If that's true then your wife is either the 21st century virgin Mary, or she's got some serious explaining to do.
