Hi Christian
WeKome to K-world mate.
Keep your arms and legs wholly within the carriage and enjoy the ride.

PS You'll need to change your profile name otherwise you'll always be 'The Noob' Laughing 

Cheers

Welcome to the forum. I understand that riders from the island no longer need to have 2 helmets...one for each head.

Could we lay claim to be the North Island??

On a more serious note, never be afraid to ask a question as someone will have the answer.  Everyone is very helpful and willing to share knowledge. We do enjoy a good laugh too, some of us do get to meet up. Indian036 might be a lot nearer to you but a few weeks ago he was tootling around the roads of Meath and Wicklow in the company of quite a few other K riders. Have K will travel!

Welcome, Christian, from someone who spent his formative years between Trevallyn, Dilston and Kingston.

After an intro and three posts you can PM Crazy Frog, our esteemed administrator, for the downloads password.

Don't mind the unruly mob above, they're quick to mock but even quicker to assist a fellow K rider in need, no matter where they're from.
