Hi all
Thought I'd let u know decided I needed a longish ride so have chosen Whangarei to Christchurch, 1200kms + 3hr river crossing on ferry each way but I'm sure I'll do more kms 18th to the 24th should be fun its great that here in NZ we can ride all seasons. Riding with my brother on a F800s and a mate F800GS and me F800st

Hi John
Awsome bike with it being so light with plenty of power, so playfull in the twistys Riding with the other 2 800s added to the fun as we all had simular power so it was up to us as riders to be in front.
U could do a simular trip when u come here . your in for some good riding this side of the world.
