Welcome..........

I am jealous of you Aussie guys, i guess you ride pretty much all year around.

Was there once for a few month (dec-jan-feb), did Sydney to Cape Tribulation and back. Thank God for airconditioning.

Gidday Sparky & welcome,just traded my 05 with 50,000k's on the clock for a 07 runout model as well (they chucked in some Evo's on the deal) . I don't think theres bugger all difference between 07/08. Just had my first service Friday before last & have 1800k's on the clock & loving all the refinements !!! Went for my first ride out on favourite back country road on the new machine (180k's rtn of twisties) had a 2yr old steer (was a bull but now has no nuts) a ewe & lamb,run out on me, & a wild Billy goat leap off a bank in the bush in front of me, gotta love those back country roads & had a real blast.
