    That may or may not be vague. Either way good luck with whatever beckons to the hospital.

    South auckland bikini? No way... that has to be photoshopped or stolen from some other country.

    Well as I may or may not be having a procedure I have no idea if I can make it. That is up to the Doctors.

    But If I do go my Pillion seat is not being used Lance. Feel free to give it a go.

    SAB - say is that Sis in the front row of the picture? WOW, no wonder we follow her......

    Spokes, next week might be good for pillion, lets see what I can organise.
    This week far to much work.

    Just been to Taupo on bike on the weekend for a run. Meet the rellies - had a great time on and off the bike.
    Picked up a few issues with the bike (I knew a few of them, sorted out the basic running ones but a few I have to sort at home)
    Picked up my issues with my riding (i knew a few, but now have a few more)

    The roads are much easier, but my riding needs to improve alot.
    Still feel I am a danger to others, if I ride in a group and work has doubled, next week expected to quadrauple (most of it has to be processed by ME)

    Good luck with you hospital visit mate.

    Come on KOWs, all South Auckland girls look like that

    ....... must be the beer googles

    Cool man. You got a tyre as well?
    Not yet, I only get every second weekend off atm and working 11hr+ days so its a bit hard to find time.

    I know this feeling all to well.
    Its how you pay for the mbike, think about it so its worthwhile.

    Its also why I dont improve, too little not often enough and its no use riding to work its less than 10ks at 50kph, takes me longer to get ready before and after the ride than the ride itself. I still enjoy it, but I need the car 50% of the time for work, so its a matter of fitting it in.

    That and reasons above mean that I will be at SASS intermittently.

    Just make sure its quality time when you ride

    looking at another bike already?
    it was the mistake I made.
    no harm in looking get a feel for what you want to do.
    Theres plenty of options/types
    if you ask the others see what they think.

    Get your skills up on your current bike, its less costly and easier to learn.

    THE OTHERS AT SASS RIDE THEIR BIKES A LOT, THEY PRACTISE THEIR SKILLS DAILY
    THATS WHY THEY MAKE IT SEEM EASY.
    Play catch up at YOUR OWN pace. - That's what I am doing sorting out the bike and my riding at my own pace, because I don't get much time to do it. Its taking me longer.

    However I know someone who started on a 500cc bike and never looked back-no accidents

    I know its like being in a candy shop.

    ATGATT-saw my blonde bit again this morning, young blonde female, lovely long tanned legs , frilly lycra shorts, no gloves, open face helmet, 50-100cc bike, likes to ride up the inside of cars, was lucky not to get knocked off last week, car did indicate-but realised mbike snuck up on inside in time. Rides with confidence. just saying ATGATT.

    Not a 'busa, things are ugly as hell.

    Looking in to de-restrictable bikes, something like the gsx650fu, ducatti monster etc

    Agreed.

    I think Peter's bike is a GSX650FU, unrestricted though. If you're buying new/young then I'd also recommend checking out a Ninja 650. Cool bikes.
