Re: New bits until I can afford a bigger bike

thx for the comments guys..

Got my Ps .. w00t!

hey all, did my test yesterday and can finally take the Ls off the baby ninja.

bloody exhausting day. sore from the experience. Of course, it didnt help that I stacked the bike twice. lol.

actually, i reckon the Ps test is twice as easy as the Ls test.

Re: SyKRyD sendz greetings from Vic

Re: Riding Gear - n00b alert..

well, given whats happened to me regarding my bike, i really question the ethics of the salesmen at that place. i doubt i will go there to get my gear now. i'll try some of the other places suggested. thanks guys.

Re: SyKRyD sendz greetings from Vic

i went down this afternoon to get my deposit back, because quite frankly, i do not want to give them my business anymore. the sales guy didnt want to give me my deposit back and tells me to come back tomorrow because i came in too close to closing time and it would take him 20 minutes to do the ...

Re: SyKRyD sendz greetings from Vic

had a look at 1300 kawasaki and their website is all branded with peter stevens logos everywhere.

i've been trying to get in touch with joe @ sharp tune, but havent had a call back from him. if he can match the deal, i'll be buying the bike from him.
