The Great KB Spend-A-Thon: August 07

[Winter]

Allright everyone:

The Great KB Spend-A-Thon

The idea of this thread is to gauge how much the KB community is worth to the New Zealand motorcycle industry.

So, everytime you purchase some kit, pay for services from a shop (excluding fuel) come and post the amount here.

Let us know what it was for, if you like, and the total.

I'll try keep track of it all and provide totals every few days, and at the end of the month we can see the big dollar!


We can backdate this one to the start of August, and it will close on the last day of the month.
