    I was introduced to this site, and indeed the diverse world of motorcycling a few years back by my flatmate at the time, Coldkiwi, who I am sure those who have been around Kiwibiker for a while would remember. Don't think he has been on the site for a while now, but his passion for biking lit a flame in me that I didn't realise existed. This flame has been burning away in the background for a few years, until a month or so ago when following a few bikers on the Kopu hills, and seeing the fun that they would have been having, made me realise how much I was missing out on while stuck in my cage.

    So I have made the mental decision to start seriously looking into bike options, and from what I take from the many threads read, it is a decision made for life!

    I have only one issue, and that is I am getting married at the end of February next year, so I will only be looking and planning bikewise for the next 7 months, as any spare cash will be going into the big day! Wife-to-be is happy with the biking idea, which is an added bonus, and although the next 7 months or so will drag out, at least I will not have rushed into any decision bike wise and will have the best deal!

    See you all round - on the site for the next 7 months, then hopefully on the road!

    Cancel the wedding. With what you save on that, you could get a nice Ducati 1098S for yourself and a Honda Dylan for the missus . ... Except she won't be your missus . ... Oh well, you'll save even more .
