Hey Richard,
What Kato did you get?? Cant believe you didn’t get another Honda, seeing as your CRF carried you to victory this year!! :laugh:

Pencil me in Mick, the boss hasn’t said yes but she hasn’t said no either ( call me optimistic ), I’m working on the brownie points as we speak but have to be careful cause there is a big chance I can lose them between now and the 2nd, so at this stage count me in.

Seen her on e-bay for sale by Squeak at Wauchope, figured there can’t be to many Squeaks in Wauchope and seeing the Squeak I know is a pretty good bloke I coughed up that little bid more than she’s worth. Seems ok so far for an ’03 525 with 3300 k’s and 90 hrs. Seems the little weep in one of the forks is more like a major leak which has led to not much front end braking.
If got virtually no front end suspension at all on her, bled the air out and adjusted the compression to the softest setting. If you put the front brake on and push down hard you get about 100mm of travel, push again 75mm of travel then again for about 25mm of travel. Ride her down the road and she feels like a rigid. Figured someone would point me in the right direction on Sunday seeing everyone else is on holiday.

Get onto KTMRAT (aka Dave and I am sure he could sort it out, He might even have a spare set of forks he could loan you untill you get them sorted. If it was owned by Squeak you can rest assured it has been well cared for.

I still have my brownie points but unfortunatly can’t make the ride Mick, thanks for your hospitality mate and I will be back, I won’t be leaving it 12 months in between rides this time, I will give the 300 a rebuild and see you at your birthday ride.

Thanks again PTW

[Mark BuntingMember]

Fritz the mad German is still off at a festival somewhere so I think it’ll just be me coming tomorrow.

Could be a warm one I reckon.

Are we going anywhere near a creek or two???? I might need a dip.

Itsagas and the Rowan are likely starters.
