Nice one. What's the SGD on that beauty, ready to ride?

2,700 kilometres from Adelaide to the Gold Coast - so capable - comfortable even in rain and below freezing temperatures on a couple of mornings. Ahhhh - the Open Road!

H Hi Mick. I should have taken this down . After 10 days and 2600 kms (a lot in the f**** RAIN....I now actually like the black.. Adelaide to Bonville NSW Now belting rain...AGAIN.. So.. Sorry about that! If you're up on the Gold Coast gimme a shout. Cheers Gordon

The INSURANCE in America is insanely expensive for very little coverage compared to insurance I have in Australia and also in the UK (including all Schengen states). Give Progressive a call in the States. But maybe not motorcycles

T Thanks so much! I love the North West...stunning places. Yes...I'm doing more research as I write. It's just ridiculous. Your "Ambulance Chasers" have done this to your country...made things so expensive...

O M G Just received the Quotation to ship my bike to America. Not including Marine Insurance.... USD$5,750.00 W T F ?

I recently had a phone call with an hilariously funny lady agent at Progressive. A USD$35,000 BMW Z4 2021 was going to be north of USD$7,000 a year to insure with an Aussie licence! Madness

Thank you. Australia is a beautiful country but I've covered just about every square inch, multiple times. As a Veteran, I get treated a lot better in the States!

It feels like that at times. I've certainly had some a** puckering moments!

Everywhere has ROAD KILL problems. My friends in Canada and their MOOSE for example! I have written off 2 cars hitting kangaroos.... not fun, especially when ALL the airbags go off!

I've lived and worked in Singapore. Owning a bike or a car there is criminally expensive but they do it for a reason....all those people on a tiny island owning a car it would be 24/7 gridlock... Do you take your bikes for a blast to Malacca or KL and beyond?

Gday from Australia. I've had an R18 Forst Edition since late 2021 and am about to take delivery of a Transcontinental for longer rides (safer to hit wallabies, the odd kangaroo or even an emu or camel (yes we have a lot of BIG camels wandering around Australia). The inlet covers and valve...

Hi. Wind deflectors open or closed makes no difference I'm afraid.

Thank you - if the 7Jurock does not work for me, I've added Clearview to my list... Cheers
