    Seems a bit pointless to own a bike and hate corners
    I guess I'd have to try and and see what I think.

    It's hard to find a road where you like all of it.

    I'm putting myself back into learner mode and am trying to re-learn some of the basics before I attempt anything that'll just scare me. I'm in an interesting place right now - it's so freakin' frustrating being a pansy for fear of killing myself.

    I don't see the point in owning a bike I'm too scared to ride, but on the other hand, I'm not getting rid of it just because my head's fucked up
    Oh I give up

    I kid you not. I was born and bred in TGA and haven't been to the Coromandel in about 20yrs.

    When you do get around there you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner

    I'll let them tell you about it but that's the brand that was on the Aprillia.
