    Picking it up Friday at about 5pm so if anybody fancies coming for a quick spin with me friday evening that would be fab.

    I have bought some maps but would it would be great to meet in palmie on saturday morning and follow somebody out. Don't want to break out of the laziness habit all in one go. It will be too much of a shock!!!

    You would/would not be amazed how little idea I have of where everywhere is. Bizarre not driving or riding and moving hemispheres you get all confused
    which shop you picking it up from? Is it a kwaka?

    yes meeting in ashhurst anytime before 7.59am. LEAVING AT 8AM. If anyone misses the start then head to hawera

    No whilst the daytona is a beautiful machine and my favourite pillion place
    I thought I would be origional and go for a Honda!!!
    Hornet 900,bright red so it will match my jacket and helmet tooo

    I still would like a sit on the back of your dream machine someday just to experience the difference

    A lift to Manfield Sunday I know I am being V cheeky now.

    Not sure if 86 will be off work or have the pillion seat on. And that pack rack sure makes me do the splits every time I get off !!!

    pm me your number and I will look forward to a warm up ride with the new bikes on the block

    Route planning the next skill to perfect. Especially as I now have to plan the route back from Auckland

    Ha ha, me too. I got a new Pirelli Diablo for the rear booked in to be fitted to my RF on Friday for $330 fitted, will also be taking the time to scrub it in before Saturdays run

    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    I might have guessed he was being nasty again

    If he continues with the horrid honda theme he will wake up with a kwaka disguised as a Honda one day

    Not sure if I'm gonna be able to make this one - a pity: good distance, another silver bike to ride with etc. Might actually be in the naki though, so wave at any other Concours you see on the road - could be me.

    Hope you all enjoy it! Will check back for the write-up! Play safe!
