    Looking forward to the report and pics Murph. I’ll have to keep an eye on future rides now I’m back on the bike. Cheers.

    Still feeling it today :woohoo:
    Great ride 120+kms of singles and gnarly hills :woohoo:

    Must admit I did have trouble keeping the pace, especially after I bent my gear shift (kept finding neutral or the same bloody gear) Whilst at the Pines I removed the offending gear lever and bent it back into some sort of managable unit.

    Tim and I woosed Woose hill and opted for the easier single line where I still managed to flip the big girl. Tim shot straight up with no worries :angry:
    Can’t wait for the next ride
    Cheers

    Did Diddel win the lottery? :P
    Abandoned the Ass Gasser for something more serious? :)
    Don’t forget to safety wire the throttle cable outer Diddel.

    1. I wish. Just over time and time off bike thanks to ktm newcastle f***ing me around for 10 weeks.
    2. Button, PDS, didn’t hate TF2’s when I had a ride.
    3. The issue you’re suggesting I try prevent being the cable sleeve coming out of the housing hole and seating outside resulting in WOT?
    Gasser did that a couple times, all my fault from either camel back not tucked behind strap or cable not correctly adjusted.

    350kms later I thoroughly enjoy it! :woohoo:.

    Also Woos Hill will be cleanly mine, soon, I hope :lol:.

    Good stuff mate, you’ll love it. Yes the famous WOT problem I was referring to. Those KTM dealers are a bunch I agree. See you on a ride that way next time.

    Cessnock has been good thus far and have heard nothing other than good.
    Bad dealers is reason I didn’t repeat the 300.

    Thats where i got mine from and I had no problemos with them or the bike. I know a few other blokes from up the coast and here in Newy also go there for their new ktms. They have a good rep for enduro bikes and alot of good riders come from around there. :laugh: Good one Diddel …catch ya on the trails mate :laugh:

    Yeah 2010 and well on it’s way to looking cosmetically similar to the 300 although the custom aerodynamically tuned rear support will be hard to replicate :laugh:.
    Only weekends booked are oct long w/e riding near mother’s so anything after that mate I’m keen to ride your end of town again.
