HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Not decided yet going to have a few test rides. I'm sure I'll pick quickly though. Link to post Share on other sites
HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 stemik - collected and stored? What's with that then? I presume you don't have a garage for it to stay in, as someone storing it will cost a bit (right?) Link to post Share on other sites

stemik 14 Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 stemik - collected and stored? What's with that then? I presume you don't have a garage for it to stay in, as someone storing it will cost a bit (right?) No we don't have a garage but - i think we will build one next spring. It actually wasnt that bad. it was 23,000yen and the price includes pick up from Hakuba and taking to Nagano and making sure the battery doesn't go flat over winter. I have to pick it up in Nagano in the spring. I thought it was rather reasonable. Link to post Share on other sites
mina2 6 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 What kind of place do they keep it in? Doesn't sound too bad. Link to post Share on other sites

HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Blimey getting the licence was a pain! In the end, after all that, all that has changed are 3 kanji added! They're pretty important though, I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 I dunno what the licence place is like, but anytime I go to city hall or immigration or even the bloody post office, it annoys the shit outta me to see them handing my forms back and forth to each other, without seemingly doing anything to it…….I'm sure something is going on, but why does it need so many side passes, sucking of teeth, back pass, side pass, teeth suck, forward pass……..query to me, then the whole bloody thing starts again……JUST STAMP THE F###ING FORM!!!!!

HighlyTrainedNovaTeacher 2 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 As I'm not technical and into the details of bikes, basically what looks and feels good to me really. Read reviews online as well of course. Link to post Share on other sites
stemik 14 Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 That sounds a lot like me. I just liked the color and style and went for it. Because it was 400cc there wasn't much written online in English. Link to post Share on other sites
