hey guys just wanted to tell ya all about a top ride i had on sataday , caught up with my mate konrad on his zx 14 at loftus , rode the nasho to bald hill , from there we shot down the coast to albion park and out onto jambaroo vally rd all the way up to roboertson pie shop , and from there we headed off down kangeroo vally back to albion park and up the hwy home .
i can honesly say that it was an awesome day out after 4yrs off the road , i know i need alot more time in the saddle as i was a bit nervious and it was hesetant in commint my bike into a full lean but that will change in time .
i have viedo footage as well i just need to load it up on here so you all can see it .
cheers guys

Good for you.
I went for a squirt out to Dimboola - about 150 k's.
The Bus is the best bike I have owned, without doubt.

Heya BK....
I musta missed ur PHONE CALL for THAT ride, Kev.....and BOTH Dale and myself didn't hear ya honk ur horn whilst riding DIRECTLY PAST our FRONT DOORS, either!?!?! (massive attempted guilt trip in progress )
But it's OK, coz purely as a corrective procedure (read: punishment) for having such a BAD phone connection as well as an EXTRA QUIET horn on ur busa, we've decided to install a minor (performance?) mod to the black & purple beast.....2 mushy HOT CURRY pies shall be discretely affixed between ur headers and motor at Harry's on Fri-nite....then the FASTER and HARDER you ride - the more ur eyes shall water - which (should) remind you to >>>>> bloody well RING US both up, NEXT TIME you're riding past!!!!!!

It's all good BK , juz don't do that again, ya naughty boy!!!!
ps: juz juggled my rostered days off around and now I've got Friday off, so can ya slot me in as a DEFINATE starter for Harrys on Friday night, ok?
You'll hafta keep praying to the "God of Dry Roads" but, coz both Dale and myself are both getting down to the last slithers of tread on our rear-ends (...both waiting on tyres being shipped from the US...mine SHOULD be here by then, but not sure about Dales'?!?)
Will be there but....one way or another!!!
