    Some of you clearly have a problem with the current govenment - I assume you have voted for apposing parties in the last election, but are you active members of any other political parties? Or does your contibution extend only to sitting at your computer bitching about it?

    Do you need a bigger soapbox?

    you cant have one law for one group and another law for another group.

    They're working on half the usable rev range. 600 owners should be grateful they won't be measuring at 7000.

    I need to know more about the Revs they test at etc, but can't find the info on LTSA.
    Two thirds of peak revs. If known. Otherwise 5000rpm, unless the testers deems that inappropriate, in which case whatever he thinks is about two thirds max. But if y'don't have a tacho it'll just be a guess anyway.Theres a doco with the test method somewhere on the web.

    It wasn't this bad when I arrived.

    One of my main reasons for staying was the relatively inexpensive cost of riding a sportsbike. But with the price of gas, shite wages and the focus on all that oh so deadly speeding I'm having a rethink.

    Plus the chicks are fat and the beer is shit.

    Sound like you live in the North Island - stay there!

    I'll just stay down here in the hick backwoods enjoying myself (when it stops hailing/snowing whatever)
