are u going 4 a cruise

if the weather clears up, yes.. still meeting at BK, Te Rapa at 10am.. Road Rash will be there regardless, so I think it's only fair, since I started the Hamilton Rides thread, that I also show up..

GRRRR dammit, this is starting to piss me off.. since I woke up, my left ear's been blocked.. anyone got any tips on how to fix this? I can only hear my right speaker

[Skyryder]

my bike is a bit scratched up and i dont wanna pay for a paint job so i was thinking of approaching a cigarette company and see if they wanna paint my bike up in like rothmans or winfield red colours , it would be great advertising for them cause obviously the tele and radio and other media are out , i could make it worth there while by parking it outside sporting events and busy shopping centers for a small fee , any ideas who i should approach ? i wonder if they go for it

You just got no imagination Winj. Cige companies common as muck. Booz barons not much better. Why not try the new kids on the block. A Whore House and give yourself a bit of style.

However some bleeding hearts anti-smoking group are likely to preform like trained seals should it happen. I'm sure there are other companies/franchises you could approach, but do not have any great idea. Maybe an anti-smoking group could paint up your bike?

I think you will come unstuck here:

However I don't see how it would be any more gay than a smoking paint job. If a DHB did it Id suspect that it would look pretty cool. These days they design things to a target group and I guess they would target the younger generation. You could be surprised with what they could come up with. An anti-smoking slogan with some Maori designs would look cool, they can do it to my suzuki for free if they want, provided they are removable decals like the graphic that are already on it.

i seriously doubt a single person on a bike with cigarette branding is gonna get fined for their paint-job.. maybe the government will say.. "here's the money, now get the paint changed" problem solved

Best check out Luckystrike's paint job in his profile.

Why would they want to sponsor a bike that never gets ridden?

He has a point

Most people in this country that still smoke buy rollies now so you're best to target them. A Port Royal paint job would look pretty sweet and be very different. You'd probably confuse the do gooders too cos they'd never have seen one before so their poor, simple little brains would be all confuddled.
