Good things take time fanny

Okay, I just got back from the long (really long!) weekend in Auckland, I woulda tried to catch up with people whilst up there but time constraints, some kind of rugby thingee, and too much (not enough!) boozing meant I was limited in my excursions... But the good news is that the bike ran mint for the whole trip! I'm absolutely stoked, I was a little nervous about a rust filled radiator, but it seems to be fine after a good flushing out. Apart from that, I've got the bike back up to scratch apart from the fairings, it kinda looks like a streetfighter still... But mechanically everything is good, ready for the long haul up to the Cape! Not bad for a 21 year old bike, I reckon!

[stifmyster1]

Good on ya mate. Wish me getting mine was that easy. I have to go to the docs and gets yet another eye test so he can write the exact same thing as 7 months ago.

[nathanwhite]

Bahaha....Yea testers get a little freaked by the whole, one eye looking at you while the other is checking out the wall

[stifmyster1]
