I would like to introduce myself as Ben and the bike I have is a 2006 honda ST1300.  I have done some rides with friend since coming to brisbane north (petrie, very nice area).  My bike has been described as a lounge chair on wheels.  it is the most comfortable bike I have ridden.  As I look at the names there are a lot of nick names, I was never given one. Even when people found out that I was European a nick name never stuck.

Welcome Ben,

Hope you enjoy the faces here, as for the nickname, don't worry we will find you one eventually!

Share your experiences, and post any questions, this group will always help

Welcome Lambert.

You should never have mentioned that you havent had a nickname, cos now they guys will be waiting to give you one. It will come from something as little slipping on gravel, tripping on the gutter.

Even putting Diesel in your tank will do it.

 Hi Ben & a Warm Welcome from the Wild West

Howdy Ben.  You have to earn a nick sometimes, good or bad.  Best to try and chose one yourself upfront and hope that it is not changed once you go on a few rides.  I know a few other European Pan riders so can give you a few links to them as you might be closer to them than many of us.

HELLO

G'day Ben, welcome to the forum

If you see a  riding around the area, give me a wave

[Biggles]

Yeah, the nick "Diesel" is already taken.  You might try "water" or "beer", but at least diesel made lots of smoke and the engine still ran (it's a Honda, after all).

We'll definitely be seeing you around.  Brisbane area has a larger than average population of STs, as you can see from the Member Map.

Catch up soon.  Saturday?

Hi Ben - hope you're having a ball on the BeaSTie!


Post up a pic of her for us when you have time, and now that the National Rally is over, we can concentrate more on local rides and lunches around the Brissie area.


Cheers, Diesel
