This weeks international insult is in Malayalam:

You Frog Fucker
$85.00!! Mind you Ruapuna is a far better track than slippery old Manfeild. I'd pay 85 pinghas to do a track day there.Originally Posted by Biff Baff
I believe in the UK you could pay as much as 150 poundsfor a track day. That's $454.00 to us cor blimey Kiwi's
Greetings pommy one. Welcome to KB and soon to be welcome to NZ.
Move to welly, that's where all the REAL sports riding's to be had. Although, we have more than our fair share of moaning fucken poms down here.
Mostly thay ride GSX-R600s and complain about how unsticky Nth Island race tracks are.......
Vote David Bain for MNZ president
And what a bunch of cunts, cunts on gsxr1000's are. Bloody Aussie cunts.
Aaaaaarrrrrgh! Information over load!!!!
I've no idea of where we want to live, or even if we'll get in. I'll just hang around here and get a feel for the atmos. Thanks for the welcome btw, I'll try not to do too much whinging.
Hi Nooj... just do it mate. Take no notice of these kiwis bemoaning us poms as whingers. They dont mean it really. Most of them are harmless. I arrived last January(2004) having met a kiwi bird on the net when she was in Blighty getting some OE.
I assume you have considered the entry process (ooh er)... I mean the Immigration palarver of course! I was lucky, Lynda signed me in as family so I by-passed the points system, but I still had the whole rigmarole of medicals, police checks, formfilling and waiting etc etc to get through. It took six months to get approval. When I went to NZ house to collect my Visa, I was told that if all the information is in place, then they can make a decision in two hours!! But they had 46000 applications the year I applied.
As for the serious business of biking. All that has been said above I can only agree with. Its Biking Nirvana! Some Harley riders seem to take a dim view of sportsbike riders ( or anything Japanese). You might just get away with a grunt from one if you have a European bike! Apart from that the riding is brilliant, and the camaradery that is inherant with bikers is alive and well here in NZ.
I shipped my ZX9 out last October. It was cheaper than buying another second hand one! (£680)
Good luck in planning your move. We look forward to your arrival.
Oh by the way, try and avoid Auckland mate... its bigger than London and suffers the same with gridlock. Once out of there though, you wont see another car or speed camera on the road for three days! Just sheep!
Should have got yourself a Gixxer + then you wouldn't have to push itOriginally Posted by Ninja51

Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
Welcome from the Aprilia forums![]()
Tell us a bit about what you you want to do for work and riding etc...
Any track days, or just road riding?
P.S. Whatever anyone tries to tell you, Auckland ROCKS! (but the traffic still sux)![]()
ANyway, it's still bettter than the road into wellington on a weekday![]()
Ha bloody ha! Very amusing mate. Been reading my other threads eh?Originally Posted by MSTRS
Actually I nearly did trade the nine for a GSX1000 but the taxman wanted money instead. I think we both know the alarm prob is nowt to do with the make of bike! Bloody frustrating though.
well yea - i have read those others. Get a new remote. TaxmanOriginally Posted by Ninja51
I just wondered how 3 days on the road & no see a cop etc until I figured out your problem and gave you the solution (for free, I might add)
See WT for confirmation

To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods

Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
