    Noob Introduction - Simey

    Hey guys,
    I'm Simon. Yeah, my nickname is Simey, it's all good, so long as you don't say it like a pedophile.
    I was at the chiller on Friday, if you can figure out who I am.
    So yeah, just thought I would introduce myself and post some pics of my bad ass chopper.

    Yes, Stephen has a unnatural fetish for all things Honda.

    Welcome to the club mate, and look forward to seeing you on a ride - SMCTNR is tomorrow night...

    Oh yeah. Is this "I'm a raging dictator" club pres Stephen? I'll keep an eye on that guy, he seems a bit shifty.
    Yeah, I might come on the TNC tomorrow. Do you guys do a petrol stop along the way? I don't know if my tank is good for it, eh.

    Just did some math, traveling to Hamilton I manage just over 5l per 100kms. with a twelve litre tank, so I have some headroom. :-)

    I wish my serious classes were done. :-( 9:00am start Friday and a test.

    One would expect a 250 twin to do better than that, i used to get 30km/L out of my VTR.

    Dunno, eh. I was guessing on the conservative side. I know she gets better economy around town than on the open road.
    Meh, as long as she keeps starting first time, I'll forgive her.
