| Another Aussie Hi there, Just saying hello, about to become a big bike owner after 2 years on a baby blade. Can't wait  So I thought I would become a member as a 'premeptive strike'  | |

| Re: Another Aussie Yep, the sun has arrived over here too. Riding weather is back and it looks like it's gonna be a great riding season for me :-)) Would prefer some of those twisty east coast roads though, but hey, you can't have everything  |

| Re: Another Aussie Thanks everyone, I've had a look through and this site is quiet interesting. It is good to get a different point of view to motorcycle riding than the oz view I get on local boards. Just talked to someone who had a look at the baby blade (250) and they said they want to buy it so it looks like I need to buy the bike big sooner than later. OMG, I have no bike now  . I haven't really thought this through have i.......  I thought it would take ages to sell the 250 but it took me less than 3 days.... I'm having withdrawl symptons already....  Ahhh.... If anyone in perth wants to sell their fireblade, r1, gixxer etc then give me a call (sob sob) TS |

| Re: Another Aussie Quote:
 You'll find some good info here if its a big blade you're after... What sort of riding do you do? Just street? Bit of touring? Tracks? (I think theres just Barbagello sand pit for you over there )Best thing to do is get to the bike shops and test ride every second hand bike they've got, see which one suits ya best. Cheers AB | |

| Re: Another Aussie Hey AB-Oz, I do road riding mostly. I commute to uni daily and do rides on weekends to the country. I want to go to the track though once I get the bigger bike. Thanks for you tip. As soon as my exams are over I'm off to the dealers to start test riding. Whats the ettique with testing them? I mean, a short ride won't tell you much about the bike. Can you take them for a decent ride, say 20 minutes? TS |
