Hi from Christchurch, New Zealand

Post by philkr1m »

Gidday All. I've been a member for a month or so, thought I should introduce myself. An old Bugger at 53, riding since the early 80's, mainly Japanese multi's - GPz750 (x2) & 1100, GSXR1100 & 1000, RD & LC350, and 2 R1's. Soon to be a third. I'd pop a photo or 2 on here if I could figure out how to do it! Happy riding, folks.

Welcome to the forum Phil, I'm guessing from your user name you are waiting for an R1M to be delivered, I get mine on the 12th April, see post below of some pics I took of her yesterday :D

viewtopic.php?f=57&t=12949" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Age is relative, the average forum age is around 42 when I last surveyed it, but there are quite a few of us in our 50's and we even have members in their 60's and 70's. Mind you from where I'm sitting I wish I was still 53 :lol: so you ain't old mate :D

Duncan aka Moise on here is also a kiwi although I think he originates from this neck of the wood .

This is a great firum, loads of banter and good humoured p!ss taking, any questions just ask, if you know the answer to any questions asked, please help

Regarding posting pictures, the links below should help


Taptalk

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=147" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Photo-bucket

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=144" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Enjoy the forum and enjoy your R1M when she arrives, quite a few of us are getting a tad excited now either just having picked theirs up or like me and you .... Soon to do so :D

Anyway welcome

Stephen

welcome to the fourm mate,
You should visit NZ and try that line at the pub ...

Welcome Phil, I think that makes 3 of us now!
