The Daily Good News
No worries at all @zen.
Something i've come to realise is an anonymous voice means very little in sea of anonymous voices. Proofs in the pudding.
However having said that i know you all know who i am as i have posted my names several times so as to not hide behind an anonymous shield.
Shame you lot can't do the same when you put your own 'voices' to such issues.
If you can't back your own deepest darkest thoughts towards someone else or an issue up with your true identity...then what really are you on here??
Like i said. Not a healthy place to spend too much time.
So yeah, no worries.
Happy daily good news motherfuckers.
My full name is easy to find here if you look for it. My identity is no secret either.
Let's not go down the finger pointing path again though.
yeh, knowing someone's name means dick, cos we all ain't nothing, all it has meant here historically has been people puffing themselves up. Also would mean employers being able to be told by narc colleagues that you said you smoke dope on a surf site. Or took two weeks off 'for medical reasons' in the Ments. I'm Gerry. Gerry Waterhouse.
This Suk looks okay too. Bit cheaper, that’s if it’s still available
looks cool. all about the floppy saddle seat (or preferably lack of) for me and if you can happily ride with an upright(ish) back, like looking to the horizon with straight arms and your back at 45 degrees, @seeds.. I liked the CB350 that @blackers suggested..
Yeah I like that old Japanese retro look. And the long seat
An extra $2k for a 9 year newer bike, 40% + seems fair. The Suzuki looks okay. Board carrier is helpful possibly, but it ain't an "f" coz the fairing has disappeared. Could be a sign of a ,"gold watch" event (cheers Zen :)). They are good basic bikes but the Honda looks a bit more schmick. Triumph Scrambler 400x looks nice in the size you are talking.

Just checked, standard Gs500 of that vintage is around $2200- 2600
Honda = Reliability.
That's a selling a point.
honda defo more stylish

win win
hate to be a killjoy... but are those surf racks legal in oz?
some states?
been gonna put some on a bike for years, but just assumed in overmanaged oz it's a definite no no...
legal(ish) in japan?
Oooh Syp Canguu chic. No thanks mate.
Plenty of board racks on scooters but good point no idea on bikes
Yeah you guys are leading me towards a Honda
Heard about EV bikes today. Would you? Lack of motor rumble. Great as a commuter in busy city.
Bikes look awesome. Expensive some. Dirt bikes look great. Wonder what that’d be like?
Remember this coming from someone that hasn’t ridden a bike that had a clutch and gears in 30 years. Just scooter’s overseas.
I changed my “handle” to take the throttle back to idle, kick down the stand and have a read of this.
Bloody good Aussie story of the first man to summit Everest.
