    Who else owns a firearm or more?

    I understand it is hard to own a firearm in Oz, is that true? I would think with all the wilderness it would be commonplace. BTW nice choice in a caliber and rifle. The scope should be ok with the low recoil from a 243. I really like Leupolds and Nikons.

    Who else owns a firearm or more?

    I have around 50 or so. Around 25 are handguns. I also have a carry permit, so a few are used for that. Most are just shooters and used for hunting or woods protection. Don't know how anyone can feel comfortable in a house with out a firearm or two.

    Insurance question

    +1 (actually insure 6 bikes with them) Type of bike does not change rate only the age and ccs will change your rate. BTW your liability is way too low. The minimum should be 100,000/300,000 for liability; the increase may not cost you much. 20k is not much at all. You dont want to be...

    Motorcycle Pants. Advice? What should I look for.

    I like Olympia gear. They make a regular and mesh pants. They use real Cordura and CE armour. Good quality is not cheap. $189. for either solid or mesh. Both come with liner for colder weather and in the case of mesh, rain. Online or most BMW dealers stock them. Not usually on sale.
