One day man. One day, I'm gonna show you just how slow I really am.

And if it wasn't for me being whipped I would be there. But since I enjoy it too much to miss out.... Mmmm hard baked leather cracking on my soft sensitive skin...

Ooh ooh, French Pass? How about Maungatautari??? If I weren't otherwise engaged I'd be there like a big black dog!

**carver** · 16th December 2005, 15:04

its not you waylander...its the viagro...i just never understood what cruisers are for in new zealand.

mangatautari is good, i used to work out there, my whitehall loop is good because we can turn off and head to cambridge if needs be.
its also got a lot of variety
look out for a dude with a GSX 250 with poilshed forks, blue lights, and the word "peaches" on the tank...everyone MUST overtake him once!
just kidding, sure would be funny tho.

And until you ride more than a few hours worth you never will.

hmmmm...have done man, i dont think i mentioned to you i once owned a suzuki savage...i never really understood what its good for
not very comfortable, not very fast, not as comfortable as a "proper touring bike" not powerful for the size of the engine, dont handle well, dont brake well, need lots of cleaning to look good, cant carry much on them, not much weather protection, quite heavy....the list goes on...i just dont get it.

hahahahahah....will do man, he thinks it looks real good too

**Waylander** · 16th December 2005, 15:27

Not comfortable? Mine is. Can't go fast? Is that all that matters? Not as powerfull for engine size? Get something more than 700cc and not a single. Don't handle or brake well? Maybe compared to high end sportbikes. Can't carry alot of stuff? Mate I can carry more than damn near any sportbike and almost as much as a car. Too heavy? Go to the gym ya skinny bastard.

As for not looking good if they are dirty? Have you seen my bike? Dirty as the mississippi river bottom and still sexy as ever!! hehehe

Lol make sure someone gets a pic of Him, his bike, and the peach I wanna see his face.

**carver** · 16th December 2005, 15:32

fuck yea, get a pic, post it on here!
i will take some shots,i took over 60 last time!
as for cruisers mate its horses for courses, you and i probably dislike the same thing
"older" ppl that buy em as posing toy,and cant ride for shit, or work on em..no passion for motorcycles!
accountants, doctors etc...tht buy em just coz their rich

**Waylander** · 16th December 2005, 16:58

Yup pretty much.

its some VERY tight twisty roads, but dont worry, its ok, nothing ya cant handle!
you will like it
oh yea, i have taken a fxr up to 157kph before, standard!

hmmm, was that with a fixed speedo? A car got in my way at 142 on the way back from palmy.

I don't much fairing left either, so it probably has a little more drag then standard.

EDIT: I don't think this is gonna happen... http://home.nzcity.co.nz/weather/default.asp?wla=10
