New member from the Adelaide Hills in South Australia

[butch09]

Hello to all the S10 owners out there. Had lots of bikes over the years, first yamaha back in the early seventies. Just traded my 2009 Vmax for the S10 after 28000km. Uncle arthritis is now taking its toll and I need more comfort and protection and easier handling. Do miss the v4 grunt and hoon element. Opens up a whole new avenue of riding, all these unsealed roads. Mods in package are touratech windscreen adjuster, large screen, panniers, bash plate, pivot pegs, crash bars, heated grips, spotlights. Still to come tomtom gps bar mount. Will post a picture in the coming days. First trip in 2 weeks time - adelaide - mildura - broken hill - adelaide for 3 days. Then motogp at Phillip Island.
Putting the clutch wire mod to the test today. ::021::

Hey Butch, congrats on your new ride. I also live in the hills (Lobethal) and hope to catch up for a ride someday. At the moment I am in the U.S.A. with my S10 and my wife during a 10 week tour of Alaska, Canada and the states. Hope you enjoy your new ride s much as I do.
