    Any 'Tard riders in Hamilton?

    Just got me new KTM Motard. Wondering if there are any hooligans near by to do hooligan things with near by, or if I have to stick to other people on Tupperware-ass sports bikes.

    Meeee.... uuhhhh not anymore. But I see theres a guy who works at boyds I think on 525exc. After the gym some days I stalk him almost home. He likes wheelies and fast launches from what I can see lol.

    Btw your bikes made of tupperware plastic. Sports bikes are made out of glass

    Absolute shit... I have some horrible timing... I've owned it for 2 weeks now and I haven't even seen the bike in person yet, let alone have a ride. I've gone to aussie on a holiday and she's in a mates shed in hawkes bay waiting for me.

    2 years more modern and 100 more hp... should be fun.

    Oh god, I can't imagine how much you want to ride it.

    I felt the same way on the KTM. From the Ducati Monster 400, which was like, 45hp and 170kg to a KTM 450 which is ~50hp and 115kg. The difference is pretty nuts. Failing to keep the front wheel on the ground in third

    I remember a 'tard went over the arches of Hamilton Fairfield bridge on a 'tard.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    The Waingaro to Raglan is a good ride, I stay off the Raglan Road, too many cops. Glen Murray at the back of Huntly, all nice and windie. I go their in the summer I have to trailer my Tard in and usually run from the Waingaro turn off, to the Raglan Road and back. From Tundercross Park out, I just got an oversized tank, fucking hideous thing but at I can go further, probably have to still carry some premix. Richard 0220828186

    Bin working on it over the winter,got a set or RG3 triples and a set of crf450 forks to put on just waiting for the conversation kit. Going to try and put a cr250 swing arm on the back, I have a rear shock set up for motard.
    A WR would be nice, I think they were only road legal till 07 unless you buy a 2012.

    No kidding, I just did that route last weekend. The KTM is definately the best bike I've ridden through there. Only lost the front end once!

    That CR must be nuts on the road. I imagine it doesn't have any K's on the Odo, considering the front wheel wouldn't ever be on the ground

    Ummm I try to keep it on the ground especially up behind Huntly there's cliffs.
    Thundercross park is a good place to run from, ride trail and then on the road.
    Stay there all day I got a Jumbo van,put the bikes in BBQ, shit load of gas, stop for a feed, mattress in the back, come back on dark.
    Usually sore as fuck the next day though.

    Was talking to Blackwoods in Cambridge today and as long as its an ADR model it should be fine. Only thing is they're kinda like rocking horse shite...
