    Just bought my first bike (Paper Wings)

    Very excited. Purchased my first motorbike - a Suzuki Volty.
    Apparently they're a good learners bike and I think it looks a lot cooler than the generic GN250 :P
    Just arranging for it to be sent up from Masterton, so I should get it next week. Yay.

    Good choice for a first bike. They run fairly similar running gear to the GN (two valve head on the Volty) and the US got an injected version, how exciting!
    Enjoy it
    Pics are mandatory when you get it

    Yeah, my boyfriend has told me about NASS, which a bit closer for me. I'll definitely check it out after I get my licence and can actually control the bike haha.

    Good wee bike, and good score on the jacket, I own several Ixon jackets and their 'top flight' ones are bloody good. Enjoy riding.

    My GF got on the road recently & I don't think I have seen anybody over the age of 3 so utterly happy.
