    Yeah G'Day (Bassai)

    I am 59. I am on my 14th bike which is a ZZR 1100 D1.

    Live in Totara Heights Auckland. I got my first bike in 1971, a Honda CD125 and progressed in size and power from there.

    I cant believe how conservatively I ride now compared when I was young. Used to be a maniac!! I was a motorcycle courier for a long time too and its a wonder I never lost my licence. I started that job in the middle of winter and we would do over 1,000k's per week. That sure develops your riding skills and attention levels!

    All my old bike riding mates have become wimps and dont ride or their "life managers" won't let them, so for the most part I ride alone and enjoy it very much.

    I dont drink and I dont chase wimmins no more, so I kind feel I should have some kind of vice and thats my ZZR... Amen!!

    The person I bought our bike off yesterday was in the ''it's dangerous and people are out to kill you'' state of mind. For a small $4,500 outlay it's a win fucking win.
    Added bonus is both my wife and I have enjoyed a good number of years on motorcycles and will continue to do so albeit not as much as we would like or have in the past. It's more when we can nowadays.

    I don't know how you can sleep at night, look so that you can have a really good nights sleep I will take it off your hands for $4550.

    Really appreciate your concern for my apparent sleep deprivation, I have had to rego/insure it and it's currently in a local bike shop having a service. So that extra $50 (while tempting) cannot be accepted at this time...

    It was the figure I wanted to pay before looking at it. It was listed at $5100 ono.

    I saw that, but nah, something a bit lower to the ground, lots of ideas.
