Hi and welcome
We're new to Milles called Frankie but we do have prior experience of kiwis .....
they seemed fine until one of them traded in his Aprilia for a 'blade
... and as the bar's open, i guess a pint of Black Sheep would be an appropriate drink on this occasion.

Cheers Folks
A Tui is a native New Zealand bird (feathered, although some of the 2 legged variety look similar), but this Tui is question is one of these

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

I dunno you wait for the bleeding colonials for ages then two arrive at once - my kiwi brother in law arrived yesterday...
Welcome and how lovely to have a correctly coloured donor bike arrive :)
Seriously welcome and what's your credit rating like?
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...
