    Another New Bike thread

    So since i got my full license on October 4th i have finally got me a bike.
    I sold the Hyosung privately within a week so have been bikeless since then, but i finally picked up this black beauty.

    Its a 2002 Aprilia Futura RST 1000, with 14000km on it.
    Bought it through Kerry and KTLbikes.co.nz in Auckland.
    Had bit of stink moments when the bike arrived, had a fricken punctured front tyre, and the battery died from starting as it was not charging. I Let Kerry know these things and he was right away telling me hell cover the costs to fix it up. So a day in the mechanics down here and it was all sorted.

    Im a very happy chappy now and love the bike to bits.
    Cheers to Kerry for the great deal on it and also to Drew for the hookups with Kerry. Also big thanks to Riffer whom checked it out with me and reccomended the local Upper Hutt guy, Big Mac down at Maidstone Yamaha to get it all sorted out.

    And heres the piccies.

    Nice one bull, that's my favourite touring bike. The panniers are big enough to carry kids in as well.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Doesn't he though. I wish I hadn't looked. A tricolore 851.

    Oh dear.
