Hi there, new member/owner from tropical Australia

Post by jeffgre_6163 »

Hi Guys
I have finally found a home after trolling many other sites.
I have a 2003 Raptor 1000 that I bought with 27k kms on it in October 2005.
Many thought I was mad as I traded my 03 Yamaha R1 in on it.
I had had the R1 from new, but after long string of sports bikes, it was time for something different.
I love it and apart from a MAJOR blip after only 2700 km of ownership all appears well again [touch wood].
It is fast becoming my favorite bike, which is saying something since I have had about 27 in 26 years of riding.

I have fiddled a bit already with the front suspension and various things, I will pass this along and explain my "Blip" in another area.

Regards
Jeff
