Greetings from South Africa

[Dutchie]

Hi there. After a couple of 400s, then laying off biking for 10 years, then riding a Buell Firebolt for a year, I picked up my '04 purple and black this morning.

My goodness! When I dropped of the Buell (trade in) I felt sad but after a mere 42 km on the 'Busa the Buell feels positively agricultural.

Anyway, just wanted to say howzit.

Thanks guys - I'll get on the picturese ASAP. Picked it up on Friday, then had an installation (work) that ran from 7pm Fri till noon Sat, and again from 7pm Sat till midnight. At least I had the chance to put some break in miles on on Sunday. Monday I flew to Cape Town (BTW Justintime2 I'm from Jo'burg) and came back last night. Manage to sneak in a 100 miles this morning

- still grinning. Oh yeah and !Labels mod done.
