    Re new bike

    Nice one Lynda, no doubt it will be zoomming up to morrinsville at some stage, did you have to buy a new pair (NZ$600.00) of sunnies , or did your last pair work out okay ??

    The only reason I only ride in the Iron man Class is I have no friends left to enter the two man events,
    my own fault really.

    Guilty as charged, Your Honour.....

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

    Hi Sensei - keeping the standard pipes on for the first 1,000kms then a set of Neptunes will be going on.

    Hitcher: red, of course!

    Andrew: I pretended to ask Hamish if I could buy it, but luckily he said "yes" because I was going to buy it regardless!!

    F/F - yes, one day before too long it will be coming to M'ville - not sure when but will keep you posted.

    I haven't been out on it this weekend - went to Taranaki (in the car) on Saturday, picked up a couple of things at Callenders closing down sale. It was very crappy weather when we left here, but nice in Taranaki.

    Today was shit weather, so have spent the day putting on the "tankslapper" knee protection, the carbon-fibre-look tank protector, and headlight protector. Hamish is now out in the garage fitting the wiring for my radar detector.

    Mooch: yes, Wayne recommends the 14-tooth front sprocket, and it works a treat on my 800. I can feel (after only 10kms!) that this bike will need the same mod. Say "hi" to Mangell6 and Matthewt (aren't you the guy who works with them?)

    Can't wait to go for a good ride (in good weather) - yeeharrr! (I'm a pretty happy chappy)

    Sorry, I wasn't specific enough - I have kept the old $699 sunnies, they'll do for another year or so. The titanium toe sliders are extra to the sunnies

    Nah, not worth it. Neither of you has sufficient influence in my new realm of existence. Maybe if you both worked for IT Apps (ha ha ha ha ha ha).

    Actually thinking about it I still don't know what mangell6 really does

    Let me know what he does when you find out.

    I might even buy you a coffee as a reward.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Is Callenders closing down?

    yep, this Friday (26th) is their last day. There's another thread somewhere, I'll try to find it and post it here (I think MadDuck started it?)

    Very little stock left, it's very sad. Nice people. I got a few Ducati posters and a banner that they had left from when they used to be Ducati dealers. I felt like a vulture, but the owners were really good about it.
