I'm not lurking anymore...
CI3000 Fri 07 Feb 2014, 11:41 am
Good Morning,
My name is Pete and I have a 2009 Bandit 1250. It's a great bike and has a few things that were put on by the previous owner. Healtek Speedo Healer, Healtek FI-Tuner Pro, heated grips, rad guard, and fork brace. I'm going to add a few things to this list soon, R&G Crash protection and Healtek GIPro/ATRE.
I happened to find this forum by Google search and lo-and-behold there's someone I know here! MarkPottsy with his GSX1250fa... I recognised the bike and the work as we've spoken about it in the past. I am, as it happens, also an import from the UK like Mark only I've only been here (with wife and dog) for 2 1/2 years. We waited until we'd got our PR before we bought the toys. My wife now has a yellow VFR800FI 1998.
So, hello everyone
Pete
P.S. CI is a shortened version of the name I used to have when I ran a UK motorcycle forum (now defunct for obvious reasons...). My name was CrazyIvan (which was a gaming name) and regularly got shortened to CI so I kept it.

Welcome, Pete.
Where do you hail from? Over there and here?
Good on you taking the plunge and getting your finger out of your bum and coming to Gods country. (Fellow Pommie)
Lol

Over there? I lived the last 11 years in Preston. Over here? We live in Allambie Heights (Sydney). We previously lived in West Ryde which is where we met Mark (and Sharon) when we were walking our dogs...
