    Do a wheelie outside Katman's shop in Taupo & post pics of it..........maximum rep points will ensue.


    ps: congrats on the new steed.
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    My favourite scheme that blue, only mods I'd do looks wise is a single seat unit and "iridium" screen.
    Mega fap.

    Nice.

    I love the look of the thou sports bikes of the late 90s and early 2000s, looked much more muscly, and less like a 250 frame being raped by a transformer. Not that the newer bikes look bad at all, just the older bikes are a bit more... visceral.

    Mines bikes in the shop for 3 weeks, thats causing pretty bad withdrawls. Going for years without wheels would drive me barmy.
