Finally bought my dream bike last year, brand new Black KTM Superduke, wanted one ever since I saw them new at the 2006 Motorcycle Expo, but couldn't afford at the time! Ride it probably half the time to work

Previously owned a CBR900RR, GSXR1100W, CBX750F and a RZ250R

I've had a few bikes started on a Honda MVX 250, then had an FZR 250 A GSX 400impulse (soooo ugly but went ok) then most recently an 02R6 which i sold just after i crashed it. Doctor recommended i dont ride till i have the pins, screws and rod removed because i almost lost my leg last time and he said if something similar happened again id lose it for sure. But when they come out im liking the new Z1000
Had a heap of dirtys too.
The LAMS list is all the 2 strokes, that sucks sooooo bad, how long does it take to get your open over here??

12 months it was when i got it.. could be different now tho. it used to be that if yo were over 30 you didnt get the power restrictions because you were "mature" lol

[The Godfather]

new rules as of last year, from L's minimum time 3 months max 12months, then red p's for 12months then green p's for 24months then full license.

but if you're 25 and over and have your full car license you only have to do red p's for one year and bike restrictions still apply.

im not sure if there is a 30yrs old and over thing or not, havent read anything about it on the rta website

haha yeah first gear she pops up at around 12k and second lifts the front but not in the air.. you have to lean back to get second. and its very very very responsive through all gears how far from sydney are ya?

[The Godfather]

[htgsr]

i used to have trouble keeping the front of my R6 down! 1st and 2nd it would come up peice of piss an was happy to stay there through 3rd which is where i would run out of balls an put it down .

picked up my gsxr 750 on the weekend... i'm impressed with it, only taken it for a couple of small squirts as its not registered yet, was putting along in third then dialed it up to full power.. was a bit sluggish 2k-5k but once it got over 5 it just took off... looking forward to getting used to it and seeing how well it really goes
