G'Day from Oz

Hi all. I am a proud owner of a brand new 2007 CBR1000RR Red/Black with Akrapovic exhaust, K&N filter, tail integrated indicators and flush mount indicators. As there are no dedicated sites for this Bike it looks like this is about to become my new home.

The bike I traded in was a Honda VTR1000 FireStorm (Superhawk) which I loved for 7 years. It was when I test rode the Blade that I realised it was ok to go back to an IL4 after being on the VTwin.

These things pull just has hard from low down. Very impressive.
Can't wait to explore what the world of the FireBlade has in store for me.

Cheers

Sean

So you would probably hang/ride at the Kew boulevard then, or is that still a copfest??

Re: G'Day from Oz

Goal kicker? heh. I do ride on the Kew Boulevard A LOT. In fact it was the first I went to after I got the bike to scrub the tyres in. In fact I normally live in Kew, but we have moved down the road as my kids decided it would be better to live with Dad than Mum and we needed a bigger house temporarily. Now they're nearly all grown I should be heading back soon which will mean a ride on the boulevard every day! But yes you do have to watch for the cops, plus it's been made into a 50 zone.

Arthur's seat used to be my hang out, that is a bit far for you though.
