    G'day all,

    Just thought I would introduce myself. Got over to Perth from Sydney last week, and so far love the place. Plenty of bikes on the road too.

    I tried picking my Wide Glide up last week, but will have another go today. I think the alarm was going off to much as the truckies bought it over and the battery went flat and wont charge. Anyway, at least now I know how much a battery is worth... farkkkkkk.

    See you on the roads, and if anyone knows any social riding groups around let me know.

    Cheers.

    PS.. anyone want to swap there Fatbob rear fender and strut covers for mine let me know.

    Well I discovered you have your own wa forum so that's good.

    I am afraid I am going to start something here, I am north of river! But only by about one minute ride time.

    If you're going to "pits" yer wide glide to WA plates then expect some grief with the V&H system that's on it.

    It WILL NOT pass here in WA .

    If you've got your stock system with you then no dramas , otherwise yer "borrowing"

    PS Welcome to WA mate

    I'm 20 minutes north of the river , and ride every Saturday AM and Wednesday evening plus more

    It was only a few years ago when the Perth lot organised rides and get togethers, night rides too...Seems that there are not too many willing to make it happen these days...

    I had to sneak in from the other side to see what the mushroom dweller was up to...NO farking change at all...All huff and puff...

    As for the C of U, it's always humming, lotsa riding and some drinking, come and try it some time...

    Me be up for a ride N O R anytime...Day or Nite.

    stix i have already had the pleasure of watching you & ando disappear into the distance. always keen for a ride but is hard to get onto the cou runs as usually the round trip time to the meet point is the time i have for a ride.
