Gday All,
I'm an Aussie expat, living over in Dubai, and figured i'd drop in to say hi
Well it took eight and a half years, but I've finally convinced the Handbrake it's a good idea for me to get back on 2 wheels.
A shattered wrist and twice fractured spine ruled out a crotch rocket, so I went looking for something a little more comfortable with a bit of character.
Sport tourers don't do it for me, and considered going down the Ulysses/Adventure route for a while but never really fell in love with them, a trip out to Classic Cycles in Al Quoz, and I ended up deciding on the C5 military Bullet.

A quick chat to the owner Nelson, and next thing you know, we're talking mods....
Drop the pillion seat and already it looks better
A few bits and bobs are now on order,
Side mount tail light
LED turn signals
bar end mirrors
15" rear rim and 140/90 tyre
tractor type seat
Megaphone exhaust
and now it's time to hit it with the grinder, get rid of some excess steel....
