Dunedin biker ladies!

[Ruralman]

I agree they are cool bikes but they need to make another version ... reachin the ground is useful...you have to stop sometime

There are some other versions of the same thing which are a bit lower - theres an Aprilia 500 cc one in at MCR on Crawford st at the moment (2nd hand) and the Kawasaki KLE500 is also quite a bit lower (and RedKLR650 has a post under the Adventure bike section for a mate of his with a low milage one of these for sale). I have a mate with a KLE400 and he's barely 5ft5in and he manages it easily.
The other bike is the BMW F650's (not the Dakar version which is higher) - if you look at Gareth Morgan's wife (Jan??) on the Silkriders trip, she's only a small lady but handled that bike no probs., and theres another write up in the Adventure bike section form a lady from Wellington who did a tour of the South this Dec-Jan on an F650, including a lot of out of the way places.

Boy if money was no problem how many bikes would we have in our garages???

Just think of all the new places to ride one of these could open up aye!!!

For sure I could easily stash another half dozen bikes in the garage...one for everything. My first 2 bikes and the one before this were trail bikes and have to admit it was a whole lotta fun. Will check out those reports

My first bike was a 125 yamaha road bike when I was 20 and I haven't had one since, have ridden with guys and am keen to get into the whole scene.

absolutely fabulous, best bike in the world i reckon!
...but you wouldn't want to be a shortish arse on it tho, they can be quite high to touch down on the ground with.
Having said that Buellbabe in Auckland gets around it quite well with having a pair of boots with a good height in heels, being the wee shortarse that she is

Its nice to have the feel of a lovely vtwin, in a sports frame, with the heart of a Harley
Can ya tell i like it?
