    I certainly hope that a brand new bike has more poke than a ten year old with an original top end.

    I should have explained what I meant sorry Scott. I was surprised a stock trail bike with a stock exhaust all the restrictors, a catalytic convertor and 3.2kms went so well ;) Your old one was in really good condition for its age a credit to you. It never seemed worn out but so gutless :huh: Maybe it was hoping straight from the 650 because we remember your response to riding that :laugh:

    Doesn’t matter now but your all red :laugh: ;)

    I had a look at one of those the other day for the young bloke $4k with only 1600 k’s on the clock. By the time I convinced him he should get this instead of a DRZ400 (like all his mates have ) it was gone :(

    I reckon they are a good thing just need yamaha to bring em out in a 400 ;)

    OK I must be getting old :whistle:
    But not Adventure Old???????????????????????????????????
    The boys had a ramp set up on the end of our local jetty this mornin
    Watched a few boys hit it
    Not for me, on the silly little 20″ frame
    OK I used to be able to wheel stand that size bike for ever when I was a kid
    :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush:
    The gear ratio was way to low, but I am sure we can fix that
    May need to build a 26″ with high gearing, just to hit it 👿 👿 👿 :pinch: B)
    Not shore where this post belongs
    Oh, I have it now ;)
    We have the perfect ramp for you (TB) to launch you brand new WR, WTF machine from, it aint goin to be too pretty after tthat ever.
    THE BOYS HAD SOME FUN

    Another WR has now been added to the shed, this one a WR250F. We have 3 WRs here now :P My step son Lochie has been working like a machine. Between lawns and Teknik’s he has been doing a good job. Andy29 advertised it here on OBT and I travelled up and spent his money :laugh: . He stripped it back, cleaned it up and spent more money. I have just finished screwing it together for him as he is away until we go to Goanna tracks. He has put a set of YZ plastics on it, had the suspension done, new tyres, new radiators, grips, arkbusters, bash plate, brake pads, new brake fluid, front disc brake cover, steering head bearings, headlight assembly and wheel bearings. He has a custom sticker kit ordered through Tekniks but won’t turn up before we go. He fitted the small race tank and Staintune exhaust that came with the bike in the box of spares. Thanks to Tekniks, Sutto’s and Ballards for helping source and supply parts. And thanks Andy

    Recognise this bike Andy?

    Thanks, 2 and a half years Matt so we were careful to look after all the ADR wiring and gear for rego when he is ready. Its all complete with a lot of new parts Andy supplied with the bike.

    Should get him an MA licence and come and do some club days with OBMCC, its not super competitive or pressure unless you want it to be and with less and less places to ride its just another good option to go for a ride.

    That actually a good idea LC, he is keen to do some short and long track but hey I will talk with him. What are you doing down there, sprints or ?

    Sprints, pony express, cross countries sometimes and grass track motocross.

    There is even an endurocross race at the end of the year.

    Wouldnt mind having a go at long track or dirt track myself

    Wrong Wrong Wrong. :ohmy: :laugh:
    Racing equates to speed = injury
    Gear it down a little and lets go :sick: :sick:
    See how the rabbit runs.
    TB, he will no doubt follow your path for a while.
    Then it is up to Lochie, to find his own way. :woohoo: :woohoo: 👿 :whistle: :pinch: B) B) B) B) B) B) B) B) B) B) B)
