    Finally on 2 wheels!!!

    Hey everyone,

    Joined KB a month or two ago but have been looking for a bike since then, and it has arrived today! Got into biking because i needed a cheap mode of transport and was getting really bored driving a car all the time. Hardly ever took passengers, and I'm off to uni in Dunedin next year so not takin a car down... it all fell together into me getting my Honda VT250FN, otherwise known as the Xelvis (stupid name, I know).

    A huge thanks goes out to:

    -gareth_d, for having a look at the bike for me in Auckland, I owe you one dude

    -Sniper, for inviting me to go for rides with him and the other Chch KBer's

    -Scumdog, Biff, kerryg, gamgee, and T.W.R. for being friendly with their PM's

    -SpankMe, for making such an awesome site!

    Pictures of my new baby posted below...

    No worries mate, riding is what its all about. Nice bike BTW

    Death cometh sooner or late

    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods
