    Well I made it back to Christchurch even though it was wet and miserable most of the way down. (How come everytime I get on that bike it starts raining??). I didn't really care though. I was just happy to be riding my bike.

    I need to talk to someone who knows a thing or two about suspension though. It wasn't exactly a smooth ride. Everytime I hit a bump mid corner, rather than the suspension compressing the whole bike would shift and sit up a little. I figured the dampening must be too hard but I don't want to fiddle with it and make it worse.

    lol, careful. When I went up to napier to pick up my 6R, I slid out in some gravel on the way back and scratched up the RHS fairing. That day, I learned that the fat tyres don't cut into gravel like the skinny FXR tyres.

    Well done mate all the best down south and have fun on the Sixxer
    This my neighbor, Nursultan Tuleiakbay. He is pain in my assholes. I get a window from a glass, he must get a window from a glass. I get a step, he must get a step. I get a clock-radio, he cannot afford. Great success!

    congrats on the full licence Tristin. Try this little clip on how to set some basic suspension settings www.superbikeschool.com setting your suspension sag. There was another British site on here someome may remember the thread to that is very good as well. If I find it I'll pm you.

    Well done baby.......PITY ABOUT THE BITCH IN THE 4WD (Yes someone who doesnt need to travel on a 4wd track to get the kids to school backed into the 6R) Could have killed her! But at least there is only a few scratched and broken mirror and indicator.......
