Hello from a newbie in Canberra Empty Hello from a newbie in Canberra

Post  k nine Thu 20 Jan 2011, 7:51 pm

G'day one and all, I live in Macgregor one of the northen suburbs of Canberra. Im a fully qualified Old Fart Laughing who is enjoying his motorcycling greatly. I own a 1999 1200s Bandit that I will never part with and last Monday I took delivery of my brand new 2010 1250s Bandit that I am try to run in at present. The curse of having to work it reduces the time spent on the bikes. I have been a Suzuki fan since the early 1970's but did not get the oppertunity to purchase my much long for Bandit until 2007. Not much good on forums as I not sure what else to write.

.

Just liked them because they where not Yamaha's, the place I came from was a very Yamaha town and Jack Finlay was an Ozzie racing Suzuki's in Europe, so I guess that was as good a reason as any. One day we will have another Motogp / Superbike world champion.
