Looks like something Batman would ride...could change your name to Robin maybe?

:rofl: It's a bit more 'star-warsy' than batman ... perhaps I shall become princess leia ..... but you may call me 'princess' for short

Load of fun, hope you are out enjoying it.

I bought my first one of these 'toys' a few weeks ago. No decent photos yet but i'll have to post some when i've taken a few. Lots of fun learning to ride and i've even started riding it to work when the weather is being friendly (fair weather rider, lol). 14 months until i can upgrade (assuming i pass my licence test in 2 months) so hopefully won't be my last

I do like bikes, (had 4) but got them out of my system about 20 years ago. Perhaps I should get them back in again so that I can retire ungracefully next year!

Well done Adrian .... hope you enjoy riding as much as we do ....

Bill built his first bike while in his teens (the bug has never left him) (we even had a bike shop in Morwell, Vic many years ago) ... he has gone from racing in scrambles, to trials, to enduro's, always been trail riding (which I did pillion with him, before the kids came along) and in the past few years has added road riding now the kids have gone and we can afford it .....

We have had a few near misses, mainly with animals ..... pulled up by the police several times (no, not booked, random checks) ..... ridden in the heat (hate it), storms at night (didn't matter as we were nearly home), frosty mornings (love my heated seat and gloves - hmmm which this toy doesn't do, yet), ridden where the snow is lying thick on the edges of the road, and ridden on glorious balmy days in the mountains - nothing beats it

Rode (to) Tasmania and been to Marree (Lake Eyre) on the R1200RT along with numerous short trips.
