I told luke about OBT and he sounded interested maybe another new member TB I had one of these when I was a young fella and they were one of the first bikes that stood out. My brother had one as well until he wrapped it around a tree at a Nulla race :ohmy:
All I need know is a pristine 81 PE400 and 88 Husky WR 430
Dont knock the Gasgas until you have ridden one
and I cant see you needing a fire to keep warm with your inbuilt insulation blanket and all :laugh: (just joking )Ollie

If you need a hand with anything later down the track me brother Gob lives up there. PM me for any help
hey ollie, some time in the future (but no firm dates as yet
) my folks will be going to Marulan to pick up a mini stallion , maybe able to bring it up if you/ someone can meet them there.anyway just another option for you to think about.

Nice bike even if it is an 82 model a 500 should still have some thump and the mate around the corner sold a wr 430 about 6 mths ago and it had been a rebuilt ground up resto job .
That looks cool Ollie
A Lounge Room ornament you say,,,,, My missus would not be a fan of that :laugh: :laugh:Anyway, good Luck with the retrieval mate, maybe you should bring it to Chichester in 2010, or even better still Louee when we hit it next :woohoo:
Have a good Silly Season & enjoy your purchase!!!!
Stormpatrol had an `85 XR500R when I had my `84 XR250 RFVC.
They both were dinosaurs :laugh: but the 500 was a very smooth old thing to ride I recallWasn`t in the same knick as this but Ollie,
I still appreciate the old bikes too, reckon they are cool :woohoo:
