    Upgrade Armour

    Thread Starter: F5 Dave

    So talking to a chap waiting for the ferry he mentioned when asking about my airbag vest that Motocap rates gear and the Alpinestars leathers didn't fare as well as he expected. Odd, so he bought Ixion as it had level 2 armour. Indeed it seems many manufacturers put cheaper armour in to make...

    New Zealand motorcycle wiki
    http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/wiki/

    We have created a new space for Kiwi bikers to place their knowledge of motorcycling in New Zealand. Ever made/seen a post in the forums that was really informative, only to be lost in the deluge of drivel. Now you can place that info in the wiki where it can be easily found and referenced.

    The wiki uses KB logins, so it will log you in automatically. Any member can add or update pages.

    Remember, just like Kiwi Biker, we have created the wiki space.
    It's up to you to provide the content.

      I saw the wiki a couple of years ago, and it was pretty inactive, but I thought it had potential. So I was chatting to a mate yesterday about the benefits of wikis, and pointed out that there was this wiki which might benefit from a bit of publicity and a few keen editors adding content on ride routes and the like. I got home and found the wiki had disappeared!

      Is this a temporary situation, or has someone decided to pull the plug on this resource? If the latter, are there any other NZ motorcycle wikis which allow the public to edit?

      It's not a wiki as such but http://www.adventureridingnz.co.nz/ has many adventure routes and tracks and members can submit new tracks to the site.

      Thanks for that link. It's not what I had in mind, but I'll certainly use it to plan adventure rides. I do like a bit of roughage!
