I'm Back!

**Gubb** · 29th December 2015, 17:21

It's been years since I had to sell the beloved Striple to help fund a house renovation. But almost 4 years later, I'm back on 2 wheels.

I picked up a 2005 900 Hornet less than a week ago, and fuckin love it. It's a bit rough around the edges, but it'll be a good fix-er-upper for the next few years. Pics soon.

First things first though, I'm after a set of Renthal Ultra Lows in black. Anyone have a secret supplier? Everyone I've tried to contact locally says they are out of stock at the moment, with no ETA. Cheapest I can find is NZ$149. Cheapest overseas price I can see is from the UK at about NZ$120 (incl delivery). Ideally i'd rather get them sooner than later, so prefer a NZ supplier.

ReckonIi'll pick up some Levers, Bar End Mirrors and Grips from TardMe when the Bars arrive. Any suggestions?

It's good to be back you fuckers.

Funny how you eventually grow into what you at one time of vehemently protest.

I had the choice between a VTR 1000, the Hornet and an SV1000. The Firestorm made some odd noises, and the SV is tailor made to people of a stature less than 5'6".

Glad to hear you back amongst the land of the (self)righteous. In time for a ride over the hill tomorrow night even

Just placed an order with Demon Tweeks the UK. $141 delivered for Renthal Ultra Lows (in black), Renthal Dual Compound Grips and a cheap set of bar end mirrors.

Not bad. Hopefully be here in a few weeks, but probably more due to the Holidays.
