    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    It is occasionally very windy. But nothing that can't be handled.

    Rent depends on how much you want to spend and what facilities you require.

    I had to change the headlight shells out for LH pointing ones when I bought in my rocket III from the US and was getting it through the VINning process.

    Note : The genuine triumph shells were three times the price of an identical hella part.

    Note they also take out your brake pads and they will reject you if the pads aren't certified for NZ..

    yeah I thought the tester was rather stupid too after he gouged a big scratch in my front rim as he couldn't be arsed actually unbolting the front caliper and didn't have the muscle to hold onto the split pin with his pliers.

    Funnily enough it was just after I told not to do it that way.

    Quality ..

    hmm it seems that UK spec is higher than NZ so my bike is pretty much okay, I'll be shipping it next Thursday (26th April) and I'll be with you in early May... what about exhausts? If I fit a loud one is it instant prison in NZ?

    Bring the stock exhaust with you just in case.

    Always get your Warrant of Fitness (yearly WoF for bikes under 5 years old, 6 monthly for 6 years and older) done at a bike shop.

    Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

    Thanks for the advice guys!
