Me, impulsive, able to resist temptation??

Post by leadbelly »

I was keeping an eye on a Hornet 900 on ebay for a workmate ... and I ended up buying a 2-owner Raptor 1000 with 36,000kms on the clock. The last 4 Sundays have been a 1200km-plus blurrrr. What a fun bike!!

In recent years I've had a ZRX1200S, a ZX9, a CB1300 and I've always wanted a sporty V-twin. I'm keeping the CB for the daily commute/ grind.

I've read all the suspension related posts (can't fault the smooth road handling - talk about confidence inspiring) but I'm now really keen on raising the rear ride height - I'll post soon on the Technical section. It's good to find such an informative and active site - well done.

Have any of you Sydneysiders had a get together yet?
