G'day Ben - welcome aboard.

This is a great Aussie-based ST forum that caters for us guys on a much more local basis.

You will quickly work out that there are quite a few other Sandgropers here who love the opportunity to welcome new Members on their various RTEs.

Make sure you read back on some of the older posts to catch up with our ravings. There's some quite valuable gems of info in there.

All these folks are only to willing to help out with queries or parts or procedures you may need to know about for your lovely ST11.

Cheers and enjoy your stay.

Don't forget to put your name down on the 'Who is a FarRider or Ironbutt Member Here" post too.

Cheers, Diesel

Welcome, Welcome, Welcome.    :hatwave

There's quite an active WA contingent here. Some are a bit strange and the rest are very strange.

Look forward to meeting you. I'm sure you'll enjoy our riveting conversations about things like shovels and lampposts.

There are a few masochists Farriders on the site too.
