I'd just like to say G'day to everyone and that the site is great.
I bought my bike back in August '11 and love it. So far I've put a 12V socket on, A 16T front sprocket, Derestricted the carbie and made a GPS mount for the bars.
I've managed to clock 11,500 km on it so far and hasn't missed a beat. I'm looking forward to learning more about the bike and sharing what Ive learned out 'n' about
in my part of the world.

cheers,

Bernie, nice to see your bike. Mine is green also. What tall windscreen do you have? I'm still deciding on which one to get. Are you happy with it?
