    yep...looks like a decent size but not as big as I thought it might be - hard to say though, a fair bit of remodelling/renovating going on by the looks

    their radio ad cracks me up - "city honda, we've got bikes for you" - but they dont say where they are or phone number or any useful info

    Yeah, i'd say their ad's are a little premature.
    It will be interesting to see what they come up with but I won't be switching shops anytime soon.

    will be heading up north for the long weekend with wifey and kids so no riding going on here.

    Nice sig pic Yod. That Sapphire green bike looks mint.

    On a more disturbing note. Watch the diesel!! I just went for a slide coming home tonight turning into my street from the main road. Very very close to requiring a new paint job. Kept it off the road while managing to twist my leg in a way you only want to see from a blonde swedish gymnist.

    Nearly all men can stand adversity and hard time, but if you want to test a mans true character, give him power....

    Hey Nzsarge, yod, ect im just wondering where you guys tend to take your bikes (Who's the Best). I was doing quite a bit of my dealings through Freedom Honda but have found there new mechanic / (manager i think?) to be a bit of an arse and not very usefull. I have just started going to Phill Turnbull's about a month ago found them to be pretty good. I have not been in palmy that long so you guys would know better than me. Each to there own i know but your thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thick or thin vasalene will get it in... (The tight bearing) Its not the length or the size its how many times you make it rise... (The front wheel)

    I am not allowed to suggest that you should stay clear of a certain shop.
