    the Intro thang

    Howya folks? I recently signed up and have been following a few threads, so figured I'd do the intro thang.

    I recently bought myself a ZX-7R after having previously owned a 600ss Duke. Sounds a bit schizo moving from the twin to a four I know, and I'd pretty much convinced myself I'd move up to another Duke, or a TL, VTR, SV or someit. But after test-riding all manner of machines and configurations over the last couple of months, the ZX was the 1st machine that felt just-right for me and my style of riding.

    I love it !!!

    I'm in Hamilton so if anyone's interested in swapping ride routes or hooking up for a blast, let me know. May even see yaz on one of the bike-shop rides some time. Will prolly go on the Cambridge-Hamilton charity ride so yell out if you spot me on my Greenie.

    So that's my story, in a nutshell. Look FWD to reading/hearing more of the KBers antics over time.

    Deeknow - I've been draaaaawn into your website dude!

    Fantastic Stuff.

    I did the Beliefomatic quiz and got "Secular Humanist" - which I could have told you before I did it!.

    Welcome, and thanks for providing some Sunday entertainment!

    Welcome fellow green machine rider!

    Keep an eye out for upcoming rides in the Meetings & Events forum, maybe you could meet up with some of us from Auckland soon?

    Yeah, just spent about half an hour checking out your site. Very interesting stuff indeed.

    And the belief-o-matic had me spot-on as a neo-pagan. Amazing.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Hello and good to here from ya.....Sorry but I just have ta correct you on somthing in your web site.
    The picture of the Moto Guzzi 1100i sport is not a Sport but in fact a 1000rs Daytona. The RS Daytona is the Flag ship of the Guzzi fleet what I wouldent do to get my mits on one of those (only 300 built) It differs from the 1100 sport in that: the colours of the engine and body work. It has a 4v 0hc (belt driven engine with 100hp @ 240kph.

    Sorry mate, but I couldent help myself had to say somthing....You proberly know all this but dident expect anybody to notice the difference but this noddy did
    cheers DD
