    I have 3

    Finish the Aprilia and get it registered

    Have a crack at an event at the Southen Downs road racing series on my CBR250RR, I have low expectations as to results, but lets face it, Im 40 and a bit overweight, but I want to have a go now or I will never do it.

    I also have some long service leave due at work so maybe a roadtrip with the bikes in the trailer to Sydney and Melbourne and do a track day at Philp Island, Broadford and Eastern creek

    Finally get my NSR jetted perfect............. ha ha. Do something with the half a Z1 I have. Do a Fraser Island trip after the school holidays in February with my KTM. Do a Cape Melville trip in winter with the tinnie, the KTM and a few mates from Perth I haven't seen for years. Buy a new four stroke (not sure which yet) and ride to the Phillip Island GP. Buy an old XR600 to do up as an adventure bike (always wanted one). Just generally do a lot more riding on and off road around Northern NSW and SE QLD.

    go to the Honda ST owners club national rally in Toowoomba the next weekend,
    explore more back roads on my Honda NX650 Dominator,
    sell some of the collection and buy a large touring bike.

    Get the FZR400 ready for rego and start riding it once I'm on my open licence! :D

    Sell a couple of bikes and buy a bike shed to finish the others. Maybe buy a bike trailer too...

    Learn to ride with a pillion so I don't need to take the car if I have a willing passenger.

    First thing is I want to STOP blowing up Spada engines, I've done two so far. I tend to over rev them a bit :headbang:
    Then get the CBR250R Back together & Get it Club Rego'd, a bit of testing & out on the track. :)
