    Talking I Finally Got My Dream Bike

    Well, after months or budgeting, figuring finances out, searching high and low and going on a few test rides I have finally found my dream bike (for the meantime).

    My baby is a 2004 Suzuki Volusia 800 and she goes like a dream, smooth as when compared to my little GZ250.

    I'm as chuffed as a pig in shit and can't wait to go on some decent runs out into the countryside, but first things first, a good wash and a couple of hours polishing to get her looking even better.

    Yee-fucking-haa

    A big shout out goes to Mark and the guys at Coleman's who have been extremely helpful and patient with me 'umming and 'aarring over different cruiser models.

    Congrats matey, its a good looking bike
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
