    And the real fun begins!

    So passed my full last week. Excellent. Although, what a piece of piss. They don't really test much. Roundabout, traffic light, stop sign and a stint on the Mway. 30 mins later here you go. No wonder we have a fair few incompetent drivers on our roads.

    I wont upgrade straight away I said, I don't need to. My hyo gt250 is a great little bike, fast enough and great on fuel. Well that lasted all of 5 seconds. Convinced the wife it was a great idea, my happiness and all that jazz, blah, blah, blah.

    I have just bought a z800. lol, Will be picking it up tomorrow or Monday. This mid 30's boy is like a little kid at christmas. Once it's home photos will follow.

    YEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!

    Welcome. Make haste slowly on that 800.

    Well done Ifnh8u! You can't go wrong if you have a healthy amount of self preservation!

    For his usual nasty words of discouragement?

    fortunately I feel Im experienced enough in the age department to be making the jump. Looking forward to learning all over again. After 43k on the 250 I was ready for the next step. The z felt good. cant wait to get some miles under my belt on her.

    i look forward to akzle's words of wisdom/ridicule.

    "Cracker: Noun. Slang word used to refer to those of European ancestry. The word is thought to have either derived from the sound of a whip being cracked by slave owners, or because crackers are generally white in color."


    Basically a word used by many blacks to describe (In a racist way) white people.
