    Thanks Brad. He weighs 61 kilos and after the conversion, funds that can be allocated to this bike are somewhat limited.No way I can afford the ducks guts treatment although I wish I could.

    Hi Mick,

    Given the weight of you Son you need to upgrade the fork and shock springs to suit. The stock springs are far too soft.
    Fork Springs are $199 and Shock Spring is $199. Both are in stock. Let me know what you would like to do.

    Thanks Brad
    I will get you to sort it out for me when you come to Wauchope as opposed to doing my XR650.

    You need to treat the XR650 as well. I just may bring my XR650 and you can have a ride on it. Just might scare you.

    Yeah I know but in the end it comes down to what I can afford at the time.
    I have started squirreling money away for when you come up.Even if I only get the XR’s arse end done first and worry about the forks later(although I am pretty sure that the oil in the forks is the same oil that was in it when it was brand new. :blush:

    Riding your 650 would be just like riding TB’s I am sure, all that does is make mine feel like a shitter. :(

    How dare you suggest that the PIG will be like riding TB’s. Not even close! He wants my engine

    I was more so saying that with TB’s suspension set up, it makes mine feel like a tank. My engine has more than enough power to get me into trouble.

    I am sure that we can work something out for you on both bikes when it comes to it.
