    Not really … I’m having a blast :woohoo: :woohoo:

    Now I just have to fit the stuff that’s for the bike :dry: Not my forte really :pinch:

    Not sure why I decided I needed another kidney belt either :silly: but ah well :)

    Yeh I’m the same Razzle. Walked in to a bike shop one day to get an oil filter and ended up spending $300 on a helmet. Next time I went for gloves and came out with $250 worth of riding gear.

    :laugh: The only way I have found to stop shopping is ride your Bike

    Put it in the shed and don’t look at it until you are ready to ride again

    This probably only works with YAMAHA’s though :laugh:

    Due to their reliability and my smooth riding style

    And the fact they handle like a nimble planet so breaking parts is hard to do ;-) Isn’t your 450 pretty much a farm ag bike anyway? :D

    Good effort Razzamatzz, you need more air filters though :D

    I did hear you do good stand up mono’s now. Does the extra weight help prevent you going over the back? :laugh:

    Razza – With all this ‘gear’ you better have an ‘idea’ :laugh:

    I went out on my blinged up brand new Berg, rode about 1.5Km, couldn’t keep up and bailed on my first ever ride :laugh: :P :whistle: :blush: :dry: :huh: :angry:

    Years ago i walked into KTM to buy a spark plug and walked out $15K out of pocket with a shiney new bike and all the bolt-ons :whistle:

    Razzle, i too suffer from shallow pockets and impulsive buying syndrome…don’t try to fight it.

    Don’t start on this weight crap, my penis wasn’t big enough to get a 570 :P :unsure:
    That prob is no lighter anyway
    I shave my pubes off and don’t wear any armor , and don’t carry a pommy accent around so i reckon there is a fair bit of lost weight there :laugh:

    I actually only need a 125 :laugh: …at least I could touch the ground with one of those

    Sorry Raz its Moto’s fault he hijacked it first :laugh:

    As you were

    What does “have an idea” mean? … do you mean can I even ride (as opposed to just shop)? Well, one day you will get to find that out I guess, and you might just regret selling the 2T you used to have in the process! :laugh: :laugh: :P :unsure: (not that I’m competitive or anything)…

    Bob: they are “Scar” brand folding “unbreakable” ones … found them on eBay for my bike (Brembo clutch and brake) for 60 bucks the pair

    Haha, I meant ‘all the gear and no idea’…..jokingly of course! I know that’s not the case from Mick’s ride report :ohmy:

    You could be quite right with the 2t thing though, if you’re out in front and I can’t keep up (quite probable) I might just shed a tear over my 300…not that it would have helped me anyway, you can’t make up for lack of skill, I should know, that’s why I got a 570 to try and help me out :P :P

    Cut the crap Moto, you hold your own as good as the next man. ;)

    AS for you Razzle, with all the money you have spent on bikes and stuff lately, it is obvious that you aren’t married with kids. :laugh:

    I wouldn’t be surprised if the 570 weighed more! It does have 120 more cubes though (pubes don’t factor into the equation) and it adds to my own lenghth and girth when bench racing (and real life) so it is worth it :P

    On a serious note, did you mean to say 125 or TTR-50? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Just jokin’ this end too :P And, I’m happy to swap bikes if we’re ever out on a ride and you feel a bit melancholy for some 2T fun :laugh:
