    Some more funeral details from Glen @ Boyds
    As you all may know Rose Orsbourn sadly passed away on Sunday while out touring with friends,
    Her family have requested that I post this email to all that may have ridden with her over the years.

    This is to notify you all of the funeral arrangements

    If you would like to attend the last ride of Rose
    bring your bike if possible.

    The funeral will be held at Newstead, Hamilton Park Cemetery on Morrinsville road just out of Hamilton.

    We will be leaving from the R J Hill funeral home on the corner of Oxford st and Heaphy Tce at 9.40am Thursday 2nd April.

    Please park on Oxford st.
    Motorcycles to follow on from family

    You can contact, if required, Rose's brother Stuart on 027 218 2449
    or myself (Glenn Bowditch) 07 8381209 , 0274 795 998.
    PS Roses facebook page if you knew her http://www.02.01.snc1.facebook.com/p...urn/1637132920

    Yes it is the rose i thought she was on the great north ride and the last time i saw her was on the sunday of the cambridge to hamilton toy run, she just took the piss out of me as normal. It is a sad loss when some one passes away that you knew.

    I was looked at R1's last week

    I might settle for a twin of some description though Perhaps a new EFI Hyosung The R1's are a bit out of my budget and having all that grunt under the tank is probably just going to annoy me not being able to use it on the road without the inherited risks

    Ahhh that photo you took Hehe awsum !!! :P

    Well I just found that the warrenty work on my fairing has failed after 320km. And I also found out during the though inspection of the Hyosung that the chain link retainer has gone.......

    On further inspection I can see my back sprocket wearing out at a stupid rate..

    And on even more inspection the reason why my bike did not start on the ride of the road is that my stand switch is failing..

    <-- One very annoyed dude hehe
