Matt from Christchurch has to be the all time winner of "best excuse to buy a bike" award.

Matt: "I went to start the car darling but the battery is flat".

Darling wife: "Buy a new battery".

Matt "OK"... Matt went to fit the battery... oops.

Matt: "Darling, the bird is still nesting, how am I going to get to work?"

Darling wife: "Oh no, why don't you go down to the nice people at Emoto (OK we made that bit up) and buy a new Aprilia RSV4".

Matt: "But darling, I don't have a bike license!" Darling wife: "well you'll should buy a Hyosung 250 then, I hear they even deliver - they'll even help you get through those slabs of beer I bought you yesterday".

Matt: "It worked!!!!"
