Hi all,
I have a new to me 2012. Its stock in white. So far I've had one ride on it Sydney - Brisbane as a straight through run after buying it in Sydney one Sunday morning and made a few decisions about what it needs on the way home. My dearly beloved is shopping as per my list while I'm away.
I love long rides and multi day rallies and have been fortunate to do them on four continents and am back in USA for a ride in June.
These days I am based around the Tamborine area in SEQLD.
I look forward to wearing the S10 out as quickly as possible. We'll see how that goes, I hear its a hard thing to do.

Welcome :)
Well, everything can be worn out;). But if you take care of your new ride, it will be a high number on the ODO:)

Welcome!

What a beautiful part of the world you live in. Was in Tamborine last year, had the best cake ever in the Cafe Bravo there!

Enjoy the bike

Back in the USA in June? For The Ride? If so, see you there Mate. I'll be working Tech. Bringing the Super Ten, or have something waiting on this side of the pond?

Welcome to the gang from Kansas. Like Nikolajsen said everything can be worn out. But if you take care of this bike it will take you a long time.

Thanks for the welcome guys, I don't generally involve myself in forums but I like the feel of this one.
Nikolajsen, Boris, here's looking forward to some km's..
Eric, the 10 is staying at home, I'll be on my ( knock on wood) reliable R1100RT, as always. It is still in MN. Looking forward to seeing you and the SO for no.4.

OX, yeah mate, batteries, sheesh.

Reliable RT... Well, thank god it's an 1100! See you there, will try not to cackle when you come to tech. Do NOT make me punish you for some hideous fuel cell with lame securing fasteners.
