    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.

    granda et al - what brand/type of intercom do you have - I am thinking of the future
    F2dz+Spokes - yeah will talk to you about camera etc

    I may want to, but I know I will be hung out to dry later. Got some work on the bike to do and heaps of work to process so others can earn $, else everything stops. mbiking included - mbike riding for me is a reward not a right

    Tigadee - how does this sound? Got more done in the last hour than I did all day

    Grasshopper knows sometimes better to take 2 steps back and turn on light before plunging in to darkness.

    I just had a quick look at the footage and its not bad. Will change settings for next time.

    Happy to carry on doing this but from next week I will ask those that want it to bring a USB stick so I can load it to it.

    This will not be shown to anyone but the rider being filmed or put on UTube.

    Thanks for the ride tonight,

    Or the MT-07 - It sounds like an absolute weapon for a LAMS bike. Probably no point in de-restricting it.

    Agreed. If it's anything like its big brother the MT-09 then it'll be a good one.

    Thanks for the help, it should really improve my riding. How big is the file and what size USB stick would be required?

    Essential info for the newbies to SASS:
    South Auckland Street Skills or SASS

    WHAT: Learning and improving Riding Skills
    WHEN: Tuesday Nights
    WHERE: Meet at Z (ex-Shell) Service Station, Cnr Great South Road and Taka St, TAKANINI (the one with a Burger King)
    WHO: Riders new and old, and anyone getting back into Motorcycling (must be legal & hold a motorcycle license).
    Weather and venue permitting - Heavy Rain may mean that we are watching DVDs. Showers are OK, look on the thread for more up-to-date information.
    Depending on the number of riders and their experience levels, a short ride may be included to practice further skills. If there are enough riders, some nights can be split into two different groups.


    Some nights may include:
    Practicing essential skills and techniques in a quiet carpark
    On-the-road practice which may see you doing up to a 1hr - 1 1/2hr ride.

    WHY:
    - Practice essential skills for staying alive on the road.
    - Practical help with your riding.
    - Fun times with fellow riders, with great stories and discussions.
    - Build friendships, solicit advice and pick-up riding tips.

    MEET at Z station Takanini -----------> before 6.55pm

    START ride -----------------------------> 7pm

    FINISH ride at ex-Manukau City Council car park for slow-speed safety exercises -----> usually 8pm-8.15pm
    (next to the new Manukau train station & opp. police station)

    SOCIAL time @ BRONCOS after car park exercises -----------> 8.45pm-ish


    Cost: Nil, nada, zip, zero, nothing... Just your time and attention.

    Details of what will be happening each week will be posted on this thread. So kick the tires and light the fires... Let's ride, aSASSins!

    Disclaimer:
    The SASS activity is intended to give any riders advice on their riding and to practice their skills in a safe and relaxed environment. The organisers of SASS are NOT responsible for any rider, their machines and/or any persons involved. All people attending SASS do so at their own risk.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does.

    I think it will be about 2g. But I will bring them along on a stick next week. Its more so it doesn't take 3 weeks of mucking about. Best would be if you have micro sd then I can give it to you on the night.
