Thanks, Alantf :-) Yep, that is definitely the plan! I have mates all over the state who do a lot of miles on things as varied as gsxrs, m50's, harleys, st1100's, fury's and little gpx's and 250 ninjas. It's been amazing how many of them have offered to 'shadow' me now that I've got the bike. But I think the thing that was most reassuring was that every one of them, without fail, said "...don't care what you ride, just as long as you are riding..." or a version of it. BTW, Secret Harbour is certainly a nice place to base yourself :-)
