New Member from Phillip Island
« on: May 03, 2013, 03:55:50 PM »
Hello all.

As the title says I'm from Phillip Island. Previously I've owned an 1100. I stupidly went to the dark side for 12 months on a cruiser. Saw the light and now back on a 1300. Black 2010 model. Purchased as an ex demo model with 0km's 12 months ago. My wife and I do a lot of touring and love our annual trip to Tassie.

Welcome PeterC and bride.

You'll find various pieces of information here, so enjoy your time.

Tassie what a lovely place, so don't tell anyone.

So, your 1300 is black??

Cheers

Welcome PeterC!  We stayed in Cowes on the way to the Ozstoc national meet in Middleton SA this year, and had a great time from what I remember..

I am originally from Vic but from the other side, so have to get down that way more often.

How lucky can one biker be?  Live at PI!!  You'd have a huge number of biking friends if that information ever got onto a Forum.    :grin
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
