    CRUISER'S THE WAY TO TRAVEL

    Just purchased a Jap Import Kawasaki VN800 Drifter, had it one week and cloacked up 600 km's. Shit it would be the best ride I've had in years, smooth, quick, and best yet bloody comfortable

    Welcome Rooster.

    Cruisers are definitely a cool way to travel. So are sportsbikes/choppers/streetfighters/minimotos/mopeds. In fact if it's got two wheels and an engine, you're already doing alright.

    What did you have before the Kawasaki?

    A teacher at school pulled up on a VN Classic today. At lunch some bloody 3rd forms climbed all over it making VROOOOOOM noises. I wanted to go over there and throw them off, but of course I would get in teh troublex0r. And I like my position in the Accelerate Class.

    You mean the Aphina unit? We all know you're a very special boy.

    Our principal, Mr Lee, announced he was quitting, and going bike touring in the south island, I met him the other day, and pleaded with him, "Just don't buy a Harley alright!?!"

    He said he just got a nice 'saki 400!
