Keep your steed gleaming like new !!!

I would have thought it more Scott as a CRF250 less extra sinkers is 123.5, that means yours is 16 kilos lighter :ohmy: Would have been interesting to weigh it at Wauchope that weekend. Would have thought another WR would be your first stop given that there is NO OTHER 250 four stroke on the market that IMO would give the trouble free run you have had, no euro and no CRF 250 anyway from what I have seen.

Weigh any bike for yourself before you buy if you are buying with weight as the factory’s cant read scales we learnt at Wauchope :laugh:

I was keen on the 390 until I realised it was 124 kg’s. My bike is 108 and there is no way I am going heavier. I am speaking to Rory @ Rock Motorcycles about a possible upgrade.

If you want less than 108 kg and more power then I think a shiny new 2 stroke is in order for you Scotty

I treat mine the same as the bike, truckwash and the pressure washer.

I do the same Jeffro then give them a generous spray with tyre shine so they’re easy to clean next time

i had a hot water tap put in the backyard that i connect to the pressure cleaner
the bike comes out spotless everytime and i dont miss my decals that much.

Yep, CT18 truck wash, a couple of cold ones then pressure wash. Works a treat. Absolutely no elbow grease required, which is good as I’m usually buggered after a ride. Boots are treated the same. WD40 and chain lube finish it off nicely. Cheers Budge

CT18,WD40 its like a dirtbikes stable diet,have used silicone spray under the guards (not to make it shiny :laugh: ) but to clean it easy after a muddy ride. Read it somewhere in a mag once,i think mx trick to try and drop mud / weight. Recently looked at my mates identical bike to mine that has had no CT18 just wd40 coats and it looked like a pos,compared to mine.

I’ve been using a lot of fresh air it works a treat i reckon

The proof is in the pudding , a bit like that Boags beer add (except it tastes like shit)

:woohoo: :laugh:

Oh and a cheeky tip if you buy a reliable bike in the first place (Yamaha) it doesn’t matter if you don’t wash it as nothing will break down anyway ……………..apart from incidental crap from falling over

[jamieMember]

Nice ride Bob,it just needs your signature scratches and scrapes to make it look the part. :laugh:

[GregMember]

Congrats Bob, they are a nice ride mate. I have been enjoying that WR Steve has the fuel injection is so smooth and trouble free (unlike KTM )

Go forth and scratch
