    Even though this is in PD, I'm going for a genuine answer

    If you are considering making a move, you should come over on a holiday, and hire a bike, and see what you think. Have a look at some of the ride reports here and browse around to see what the riding is like in NZ.

    NZ has a bit of a skills shortage at the moment, engineering shouldn't be a difficult field to get into. If you get a 2 year work visa (or whatever it is), it can be upgraded to permanent residency if you decide to stay (a few hoops to jump through and forms to fill out).

    Might get more help if you post your thread in this forum ( http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=34 ) instead of the site rubbish bin.

    That youtube link was pretty cool actually. I've tried doing burnouts with warm tires on my 1098. Cold tires or sketchy road conditions, no problem, but warm tires, my Diablo Corsa III's have too much grip and is too dangerous to do a burnout I think
