Cheers Sm00thpapa. Seeing how it was your post that originally got me thinking I'm glad you put in your 2c. You sound pretty switched on by the way. Therefore its looking good that you might survive the inital couple of years without being squished. Good on yer!

Tough break man. Makes you wonder though where that kind of thing stops. Don't piss off a copper because it looks like they can frame you for murder!

Guess you can't legislate against idiocy too ;). You're right of course. You can kill yourself on any class of moped if you really want to. Scary things these bikes aren't they? But not quite as scary as some of the meatheads that ride them. I did a Stay Upright course not long ago. It was...

Difficult at the moment Stim. Would love to but while soccer season is on, the kids are priority on Saturdays. I'd be there at 8am at Enoggera except for this and that my mother arrives from Sydney tomorrow so I'm not allowed to go anywhere or do anything.... unless of course I get her a helmet...

Just heading over to a mate's place tonight to put the Oggies on my new FZ6S :rockon:

'ello every buddy. I'm new here (obviously). Living in Brisbane, Oz with wife and 4 kids and have just picked up my new (2008) FZ6S. Looking forward to the discussions and meet ups. Cheers
