Moto once upon a lifetime I was a travelling consultant for a particular industry and I did 80-100K a year… in a mixture of vehicles, admittedly the best were the Subarus, but i also loved my Nissan Navara D22 deisel, good economy and decent comfort with all creature comforts needed and also my Toyota V6 hilux (not good economy, but went well), so let’s face it Laddie it’s all about the image when you do that sorta work
, and when travelling into the bush a crewcab cuts it, a sedan with low profiles and attitude just says “know it all instant expert” to the Blokes i was working with, or just another city boy driving a hoon mobile
.
Plus my Dogs loved it freedom to get the wind in their faces, so would yours
. Plus the KTM would look tougher, and what’s more Australian than a dog in the back of a ute.

Anonymous:p at your comments Bruce. I’m strong minded enough (read arrogant and pig headed :laugh:) not to feel the need to conform to any sterotype be it Australain or any other. I do what I want and if somebody doesn’t like it they can go cry in their milk about it.
I’m not about to go and join the other Lemmings and buy a Commodore or a Falcon just because that’s what everyone else reckons is cool. I couldn’t give Boony’s nuts about what people think of the car, if I did I wouldn’t have bought it. You wouldn’t belive how many people have said to me I could have bought a new XR6 turbo for the money, sure, I could have, but the point is I don’t want one. I’ve made my bed and I’ll lie in it
The dog can stick his head out the window or I’ll strap him into the trailer :laugh: :laugh:

AnonymousMoto – you have done what’s right for Moto. You don’t need to conform to the masses. If it feels right and suits what you want it to do – then so be it.
It’s a nice looking car mate. + it will probably blow any Crapodore or Falcoon away.

AnonymousLooks like I’ll be around Sat morning Dan if you’re still thinking of stopping by and seeing Sam the man
I might even give you your yellow Lake Macquarie council vest back. I hope you don’t mind I’ve been wearing it naked around the house….Tyne likes it
June 4, 2009 at 1:52 am #138143It’s ok Moto, just oulling you’re hairy leg, you’re doing alright, it’s actually not a bad choice, and truth be known I don’t conform to the stereotype either, just think it’d look better with a tray on the back with a large cream coloured dog hanging his tongue out in the breeze:P .
Not a big fan or commodores or falcons myself, spent my life around “musclecars” when I was young, since have owned a six pack chrysler, EB falcon, three forestors and a laser liata, Nissan navara, Holden rodeo and one turbo 13B 78 corolla with full chassis, our first house and 10 years of my life poured into it.
Now all you need to do is buy that Husaberg and you’ll know you’re an individual.
Teach sam to ride it and he’ll be happy too.
And I think there is laws against wearing hivisibility vests with no pants :blink: .

I will give you a call on Saturday morning. I don’t know what time I’ve got to start helping the brother in law move yet.
Mate if the yellow vest is helping you in the love game you are more than welcome to keep it. (Maybe I should try one:huh: )
June 4, 2009 at 3:25 am #138150For shit’s sake just don’t share it guys!
Moto where’d you get the kit from? Its bloody hard to find any for the 07 excf but I’m told there’s a team rockwell and a bad boy one. I like the look of the rockwell but the pics I’ve seen have white plastics which I’m not bothering with.
