Greetings
Been riding for about 20 years on and off, I guess I just can't kick the habit. Have owned and ridden a large cross section of bikes, and my latest is a GSX 1400. Love the low end grunt , and am just getting to know the bike.

I'm living in south Canberra at the moment, and I'm up for some weekend rides in 09.

See ya on the road

Yeah, I've really got to get me shit together and take some pics. I just wanna ride the thing.

I can tell you wot bits I've put on tho (and I know it's pretty tame compared to some of the beasts on this site);

Scorpion pipe
Braided lines
Oil coler cover
little screen
engine bars
Steering damper
heated grips
ventura rack & bag (I'm riding it to work most days)

It's blue and white in colour. I originally liked the black, but this particular bike had $2,000 off the retail price, and the black one didn't.

I'm working out the best suspension and dampening settings for me at the moment.

Will take some snaps this weekend

Welcome Nerf good to have another Canberran on board, just a shame about the southside thing lol. Do those heated grips make much of a difference in winter mate?

Hi Ryder, sorry mate that one slipped by. Yeah they do make a difference. I had them on my last bike and they were just Ok but these Oxford ones get way hotter so I'm expecting them to be really good in the colder months. Mind you, if you are riding in -5 I find it still pays to have good winter gloves. If you commute I would invest in them.
Cheers
