Welcome from Downunder. The only possible downside with your switch is that you might forget you don't have reverse, otherwise it's all positive. Good to have you join us.
OW-DO, Blunderbust,--I'm fairly recent on here and I'm sure you will be impressed with the friendliness, as I have..
I'm an ol' bodger from S/West England.
Have just upgraded to a beautiful rocket 3 roadster after owning my trusty 01 v star 1100 for a while and thought it would be a great idea to join the forum.
