    Haha, i'd be lying if i said otherwise mate. The 'lack' of power makes them so much easier to throw around yet they still have the balls to get you to licence losing speeds!

    If i had cash i'd get another 250, but I sincerely love the feeling of the 600 on the track - The compromise is a 250 two stroke, which im seriously considering but i aint selling the 600 any time soon!

    Cheers to everyone who came along, I'm glad people enjoyed the ride, attached is the route for those interested. Now I just have to start planning the next one, maybe even somewhere out west perhaps.

    Glad we had no bins this time, and the weather geanie even managed to beat the Guy Fawkes curse!

    Should do coastal to Kaiaua, only regroups between BP and Kaiaua and same on the way home (possible different route)... then you once the usuals have some stamina you should look at attacking the 'coro loop' with a 250 ride.

    Haha, nothing beats duct tape and foam packing!, wasnt shaky at all thanks to the camera having a super steady shot mode, but it does show some of the more serious bumps quite well, also the sound wasnt muffled by the wind this time which is an added bonus!

    I would be keen to give the coro loop a go, havent been there on a motorbike but i can tell it would be nothing short of mint...brakes and tyres pending.
