I'm from Western Australia, about 1 hour south of Perth.
I brought my '99 model late last year. Was put onto this site by my mate El Loco. It has a set of aftermarket (de-badged Staintune, I think) exhausts and has done about 46k kms.
Great bike, lots of fun, reliable, and I haven't needed to take it apart! I got this one to ride, not tinker with, as with my previous rides, but I don't know how long that will last after joining up to this forum!
