when I met my wife many ,many years ago she rode a Ducati Monster ,,,,,she sold it and never rode a bike for best part of twenty years ,,,until today when I got her this little baby ......I pray to god I got this right....she was hell bent on getting one so I got in first with a 300 Ninja to save her getting some monster bike she could not handle .....Lets hope she gets fed up with it real quick and. It's moved on .........

Very cool, Pete.
I guess she's the fast one in your family.
Can't beat a monster!

It's only a 300 Pete ,but they are a tidy little bike ...not my sort of thing I prefer things that leak oil ,have kick starts and need you to have a tool kit with you At all times

I was on the Chop most of the day today.
Went for a nice little ride to the Mosquito museum, what could go wrong??
They shut the A405 due to an RTA and absolute mayhem resulted.
A feet forward 2.5 Metre wheelbase air cooled Chop is not good in total gridlock.....I have got forearms like Popeye now.....
Got to the museum, and they have 3 Mozzies there, which is nice...

. ..I am concerned Pete ,but what can you do ,it's got abs I have done o fortune on kit and booked her in on a refresher course ,,,,,,,she could ride pretty good back then but twenty years is a long time ...but if I had not jumped in I know she would have got something stupid

A refresher course is a very good idea.
I only got cut up twice today - both were women....probably too busy arseing about with their iPods to watch what was happening on the road.

I'm sure the refresher course will put the old girl on the straight and narrow Pete, I remember I did the Police motorcycle course about ten or fifteen years ago and it was a real eye opener, I can't believe what a rubbish biker I had turned into.
Now I can ride out with the best possible chance of getting back in one piece.
Slick little bike though!
