Default Hello from the future.

Well, eleven hours into the future, but twenty years behind in most
other respects.

Yes, I'm now in Australia and have purchased a vehicle, powered by an
engine that has its cylinders arranged in a V configuration.

Good work! How many cylinders though? 8cyls may lose you points if 4L. 8+
is much better.

Is it a ute? A V8 ute earns you quite a few cool points.

Hope you have a good time, and enjoy the summer.

He's only 20 years in the past, not 100 FFS.

Yamaha Virago.

Have you seen the exchange rate at the moment? Even if I wanted to, I
couldn't afford even a basic Sportster!

Vehicle brand does begin with H though.

I used to borrow one of them off a friend quite often. It wasn't
actually a bad bike for what it was. Like a lightweight Harley that
went properly, stopped, and turned round corners. Not as nice as the
1100 Honda Shadow though..
