Look it didnt bother me that much, it is trucking s*#t happens, I have been doing this for a while now, I was a little disapointed on sunday morning watching everybody ride of, but I had taken chicken up front with me all saturday for a reason and that was for him to get used to leading and show him some turn offs and things for him to know becuase I wasn’t sure which way we would be going home and I had to cover all bases. But I had a ball in the support ute, we had a scream and because I knew the tracks we could then check out some extra spots to watch the guys pass.
I have raced and trail ridden the BRP for over 3.5 years now and checked last night it has had 17 oil changes since I moved to the Blue Mountains by the notches on the cupboard door and I rode it for almost 2 years before I moved here to the mountains. Each oil change is a minimum of 500kms although on some of the bigger rides where chicken and I have done 1000+ kms a weekend, no I cant fault it at all and only hope everyone can get those sort of miles from their bikes
