Thanks again for the warm welcome gang  ;D and the kind words about the new stable mate, a credit to Coopz thats for sure

Damn, Damn, Damn, Marcia, Marcia, Marcia! >:(

... would love to join the run to the creek, unfortunately I'll be interstate (WA) on biz sadly. Bloody work is always gettin in the way of my social life  :'(  and thats a bit of a worry coz  I work for myself :o    .. I know, I know, get the violin out ..my apologies, I'm gettin older and grumpier and the longer the gaps between rides, the worse I get, could be time to consider early retirement  :-\

Cheers Gang, look forward to hunting ya's down for a blast when I get back

Thanks gang, yeh I'm in Warners Bay, next to Lake Macquarie, just south of Newcastle NSW. I added my location to profile, but I cannot seem to see it showing, so must've done somthin wrong  :(

Yeh these bikes are great aren't they, bullet proof and with some character 8) ..thanks indeed for the offers for advice, will definitely have some questions and ideas to bounce around

Cheers

Welcome to the clan, Glenn. That's a really nice bike you've picked up there. I'm sure you won't be disappointed in any way with it.
There's plenty of good helpful information to be found in the threads and lots of good helpful people onboard here who will help you out in any way they can.
I'm sure a few more will be along just shortly to say gidday.

Thanks for the warm welcome Jeff  :)

No havent had an XS before, I lusted after one about 25 years ago though. A good mate had one and I had a Z9, but I always wanted his. Then as you do, we both both got hooked up and sadly sold our toys (for next to nothin) and had kids  :'(
