    Doesn't anyone have any faith in Auckland motorists?

    Mind you the positive side of this is that you can park on the footpath or right next to the table while you are sipping your latte.

    Truth be on this Banks just wants to be seen on his Harley.

    Am I the only one who thinks that this is a great idea and will add an awesome sense of culture to that part of the city?
    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    I think it's a great idea if it works... it's not like those inner city streets really carry any traffic anyway, and at 50km it's a little dangerous...

    I just don't think it's going to work...

    I agree wiith Skyryder - being able to park your motorbike a metre away from your table at a cafe will be great - you get the showoff factor as well as unbeatable security. Win!

    Psst... you can't pose with a gixxer, mate. It's like owning a BMW or Commodore - technically it's fast, but every middle-aged man has one.

    Except for Chrislost, that was a impressive gixxer!
