Don’t sell me short mate :laugh: I live 1 1/2 hours north of Coffs!! 😆
It is a shame about the guys that have dropped out , I was looking forward to riding with them
Thanks for the offer Nick. We are putting my 22ltr on the DRZ and I will speak to Fish about a screen, but the air hawk will not be needed mate!! You have met Fish have’nt you? He has one of his own its a permanent fixture :dry: :laugh:
We got them from the same place mate a two for one deal

Guys, I wouldn’t gear it too high as they have a lot of big up hills & down hills there and we will be carrying a fair bit of gear.
Bad luck Gav :angry: , I’ll organise another trip from Kens one day.
C’mon Gaz get yer bike ready and pair up with Tryhard
There is still accomodation available at Gunning Pub – for those that have not yet booked.

Hey Mick, we are bringing the 14 fronts along in case we have to gear down along the way
I am also going through the panniers and only taking whats necessary :dry: Cloths are going to be well worn on this trip!!:blush:My prep for this ride is almost done and dusted and the Old NX is running sweeeeeeeeeet.
I put a new set of Perelli MT 21’s front and rear for this ride and I’m wondering if anyone has used them before and what sort of KLM’s I should get out of them.
I’m a bit worried I’ll destroy them on the trip down to Sydney before we even get into the ride.

They will be fine I reckon Kram, I have run them before the NX isnt a tyre destroyer :laugh: Run 32 psi in them for the trip down or fit your old ones and strap the new ones either side and we can refit them at my place (note you fit them while I drink stubbies and watch :laugh: )

I reckon I might take the rear off. I had to put them on for rego but I might put the old one back on for the trip down..
Can we leave a week early :whistle:

Hi Kram
I’ve got the MT21’s on my 690. The rear I put on for the Corner ride and took it off after the Nabiac ride with just over 4000km on it running at 20-22psi with about 50% tar. The front I put on before the corner ride, about 1000k so all up now about 5000km. I reversed it after the nabiac ride as it was getting a bit stepped (and noisy) but still plenty of tread. I’ll fit a new front with a bit more knobs before leaving for the 3 state ride, just to try something different.
As TB said keep the pressures up for the run down the tar and they will be fine.Mick
