Another new NT member
« on: August 22, 2014, 10:13:18 AM »
Hi all, just dropped in to introduce myself my name's Paul and I just  purchased my ST1100 like a week ago  from SA  and had plenty of time to start a love affair with it on the trip back to the red centre and if anyone is wondering yes the bike is go fast colour.
 I already have some ideas for things I want to add to  the beaST so I'll be reading a few threads on here  and asking for input as time goes byalso look forward to meeting some of you in the future.
  Paul.

Hi Paul and welcome to OzSTOC from SA.   :hatwave   What you add to your bike to enhance your riding experience is a very personal thing.   Here on the forum you'll find lots of information and advice about how members have farkled their own bikes, and if you can't find info about a particular mod, or the solution to a difficulty, just ask.   And YES, red is best.  :thumbsup

I'll be passing through your part of the country with a couple of mates in May next year, on our way the FNQ.    :beer ?

Good to see the numbers doubling in some states (or territories).
Lucky you being able to legally STretch the legs of an ST the way they're meant to be ridden.
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

Unfortunately I need to ride about 1200km at a dawdling 130 before I reach the open zone. I miss the old days....

You don't have to.   ;-*

But you prefer not to do your dough on fines.      :law

How does Renner Springs, first weekend in October sound guys?  Shall I book it in as an NT RTE/overnighter? I'll see if I can rustle up a few traveling buddies from this end
