Hornet Swarm Night City

[zeocen]

I decided to take a Hornet 900 as a loaner.
How you guys survive on the stock seat is WELL beyond me, I was aching everywhere just from 25kms of commuting, utter crap.

Got the VFR back. It seems the previous owner decided to do some backyard electrics on it and didn't put the sub-harness back in it's appropriate position, letting it rest next to the battery and heating up well more than it should be. So it eventually heated beyond boiling point and shit went pear shaped from there. It's all good now and business is back.

I am *so* glad I have it back. I love it a lots! I haven't missed a bike so much and it wasn't even gone a day!

Wonderful Matt, glad you have the 2nd love of your life back in your hands

Go VFR!

So what's the format for these gatherings these days? The last time I came on one I was still on my 650! Is it a short ride then dinner? Or dinner then ride? Then drinks? I kind of have a favour to ask/request for the coming Monday, if the weather is fine and the gathering is on...

It's usually a brief urban ride followed by rest and relaxation with delicious food.

Definitely come, and bring your MT-01 :D

Anyone know if there is a meet-up planned for tonight? Cheers.

[zeocen]

Yup, gijoe confirmed to me last night that he'll be there. I'm a little under the weather but if another VFR is gonna be there then I might have to just suck it up and come along too!

Ahh who am I kidding, I'll be there with bells on.

/edit: Would also be good to compare your gutted pipes to the ones I had done too! Even if they're not on my bike at the moment (got stock on, ordered some Leo Vinces - gonna be a long week of waiting! )

Ahh who am I kidding, I'll be there with bells on.

Yeah... who are you kidding... you'll pike out for some unknown reason

[zeocen]

Didn't you hear? Since getting a proper motorcycle I have been riding non-stop. ;D

;D!

[gijoe1313]

Gremlin, stop scaring the pumpkins!

[gale_wolf]

I might be there today but Wanpo's busy with iaijutsu training in Dunedin.

[gijoe1313]

Ride is on, same time, same place, different miscreants!

6pm Lorne Street, Auckland Public Library

Just remember, if you ride anything orange, some love lorn biker may be searching for you!

[Interceptor]

Yes, I am keen to see if you think my modded pipes sound any different to how your mod turned out. See you there tonight then.

you guys meet too early! riding yesterday made me just want to keep riding, but training doesn't finish until 6pm, probably 6:30

might go home via the library to say hi, if I'm not totally dead. But give me a text if you come back to blush and I might come and chat, if I've recovered in time!
