Be nice to me, I'm a newbie and a Pom

Post by jinjaninja »

Hi all
I'm due to move to Oz(Sydney) from UK next month, thought I'd say hello and try and get a bit of knowledge and advice from some of you Aussie bikers before I come over.
Been riding for about 20 years, just sold me 6r C1 prior to moving over (3rd 6R i've owned).
Can't wait to get out there and enjoy some decent biking weather for a change 8)

Welcome, we can be nice to you for being a newbie, no drama there but the pom thing is a bit hard to let go... you'll be in good company anyways, shitloads of poms on this site, daresay even the SSCC has a few, down here in Vic we have more than our share, they're not all bad thugh I guess :D

WTF?! I know the laws in Pommy land can be a bit draconian, but who would have thought they'd ban the baby name book. :shock: :lol:

Thanks for the welcome guys (I think)
Sorry to be yet another Dave , could be worse though at least I'm not called Bruce, or is that a common pommie misconception of Aussie blokes :lol:

Got quite a few questions you'll hopefully be able to help me out with, but firstly whats a "girlfriend" hoffy and should I be offended :lol:
I'm moving out with the wife and kids, so obviously my main priority is to get a bike sorted, bugger finding somwhere to live, thinking of a ZX9 (or maybe an earlyish blade :oops: ).
anyway, I'll post up a few q's as I think of 'em

Cheers
