Tommy here (ktm forums Dw) Sayin g'day
G'day, Tommy here, I am on the Ktm forum (known as Dw) with Weeksy. He's an alright bloke, so I thought I would join his forum.
I'm an Aussie if you hadn't guessed, hopefully not the only one jammed in with all you poms (am I allowed to say that? Did sort of read the rules.....sort of)
Have owned many, many bikes. Primarily dirt squirters. Currently I have 2 ktms as my main 2 and a few projects.
I am a mechanic by trade. Like riding, drinking beer, talking sh-t and stirring sh-t.
It's not far off midnight here, so I'm gonna hit the sack, might have a browse through tomorrow and see how to set up my profile ect when all you guys are asleep.
Ah, feels good to be a sh-t kicker for change.
Catch ya tomorrow.

Not a pommie! I am a Scottish Saffer. Miss the southern stars still after living here for 25 years. Enjoy the forum!

One who forgives an affront fosters friendship, but one who dwells on disputes will alienate a friend.

Re: Tommy here (ktm forums Dw) Sayin g'day
Ahh right. Language barrier, same issue I have with the yanks on the other forum.
On the ktm forum I'm one of the main mods (have responsibilities). Here I am a shit kicker.
You have managers and sh-t kickers. Sh-t kickers are like the lackey's, apprentice ect. "Lower pay grade"
So while weeksy bust's his arse to keep people like me under control, I can just sit back and enjoy.
Apologies to the non poms,
How do I do a mention?

Are you anal retentive when it comes to cleaning bikes and avoid riding anywhere unless it's perfect weather without a chance of getting wet or dirty?

Lol I've not done it yet. You'd be amazed how few 'features' on forums come as standard.
