hey,
in hope you dont have to be a kiwi to be member!
im from sydney, saw the site in a search and thought it looked pretty interesting!
ive only been riding 18months, done all my p's time on a VTR250, and just brought a VTR1000 firestorm, 2005 model with a couple of extras. im into any and all sorts of riding, ive done everything from freeways, to endless twisties to dirt tracks through rainforests on the wee 250.

anyway have a good one!

cheers
dom

Howdy Dude..Welcome. Where about in Oz are you?

An Aussie trying to get onto our Kiwi site- you guys trying to steal this off us now! p/t

Welcome to the madness. Theres plenty of good info in here, and plenty of B/S but some of it is hilarious, enjoy.

mmm Firestorm, test rode a few of those and thought about getting one, but the smoother inline 4 of the CBR's won me over.

Hi Dom, welcome to you!

I certainly would hope that one doesn't HAVE to be a Kiwi to join in the fun that KB is. I'm still a Newbie around here myself, but there is a lot of fun to be had chatting with everyone and some really good advice to be gained too.

I have a VTR250 as well, and I think they just rock for the "training wheels" period.

And Firebird....Yummm!

Anyway, have fun, drive safe and send us some pics of your rides from time to time.
