Hi Ya all.
Well a couple of mates recomended your site from the pervious Australian club I was with - Netrider.
I have done the opposite to most and moved over to NZ from Aus. I really love the people here, the countryside, the mounatin biking and of course the riding! Guess its the overall lifestyle thats appealing and yep I dont have to put up with John Howards crap anymore! LOL
I have been a biker for about 4 years and a bit. My first bike was a 1990 Yamaha FZR 400. This bike I learnt on (no restrictions in Queensland) and it did me well for many years - mind you she was not just any old learner with at a top speed of 200ks and hour. My next bike was a 2003 Yammaha r6 special edition (black with red flames) which is one serious machine! I really loved this bike and if any of you are moving to sydney let me know as she's up for sale.
Now that I am living in Auckland I started looking for a new ride and was amazed at the price of certain bikes here! I was basically able to afford my dream bike - the ducati 748. Its a 2001 standard 748 model with carbon headers and has the single seat at the rear off a 748R. I have only taken her out for a few rides so far, but man it is becoming a serious love affair. Speed wise its about the same as the R6 but I really love the sound and the shear torque that it has!
Anyway I am drooling again.
Wrapping it up now! I am really keen to get involved in the Kiwi Biker community, hook up for some rides and make new friends.
Cheers
Damien![]()
