Hi and welcome.

Hope you have nicer roads over there than the pot hole infested tarmac assault courses we seem to get here (south east England)

Hi Guys,
Newbie saying hello, just swapped my yzf750 in for a 98 firestorm, should have done it years ago, I had a VFR before that which was great, but now :twisted: I love it!

gidday there monkeyboy, I see you are heading to the Wellington region, there are some good roads there. Im in Invercargill at the bottom of the south Island, I think Jake the snake was from Hastings which is a few hours north of Wellington over one of the best biker roads anywhere, ie the range between Upperhut and Carterton (Rimutaka ranges). I think you will enjoy the area, just watch out for the cops( no sense of humor). :wink: :wink:
If you ever want to come south, give us a yell mate.
