Well the last of the preperations have been done (I think :dry: :unsure: :blush: ), both tyres fitted last week and thought it was all done but woke up in the middle of the night last night remembering that I still only had the rubber road foot pegs on. Came up with a brilliant idea today though (even if I do say so myself, and I do :kiss: :silly: :woohoo: ). Got home this arvo and checked to see if my brilliant and somewhat cunning plan would work and eureka, took the pegs off the DRZ and fitted straight onto the Veestrom, guess I wil have to organise some pivotpegz through Sutto’s when I get back. While I was out there I thought it woud be a good idea to give her a wash and polish (should make it easier to get the bloody locusts off when I get back
), She’s looking all pretty now
.
Also got into the spending habit again over the weekend, new boots, new helmet and new tank bag/camera bag. Just a small one for the camera’s, wallet and a few other bits and pieces. Boots turned up today (got ’em off e-bay) and look the poo I reckon.Couple of Pic’s
New Boots
New Helmet
Old Pegs
Replacement Pegs
Sexy new Tank/Camera Bag
Fresh Rubber
Fresh wash and polish and looking fine
Just need to repack everything and I’m ready. :woohoo: :woohoo:
October 5, 2010 at 8:00 am #188437Might be a silly question but better to be sure, has anyone organised accomodation for Condo or are we meant to organise our own?

October 5, 2010 at 10:17 am #188445Well Moose and I did some work on Ol Burple this arvo, new wheel bearings and seals, brake pads, two new tyres, new chain and sprockets. She is all but ready to go. Just gotta bend some brackets to get the headlight pointing to somewhere in this solar system :laugh:
October 5, 2010 at 8:35 pm #188462Hopefully we wont need headlights Mick, except maybe for Sunday morning when there up at the crack of a fairy’s fart like kiddies at christmas.
Other than that if we ride in the dark Moose and I can ride side by side so he can ride in my lights
October 5, 2010 at 8:41 pm #188492Up early yeah Jeffro but leaving in the dark, not this little black duck no way to many roo’s :dry:
Mick wouldn’t you have headlight brackets in the shed in all that XR600 stuff of Trippers?

October 5, 2010 at 10:33 pm #188494Looks like they are forecasting some rain for the broken hill area on Mon & Tues :angry: :angry:
Hopefully they are not correct as usual??
I’ve got my wet weather gear packed and know it works after 2 days of rain last weekend and the Andys bags kept everything inside dry.
Bring it on.
