April 1, 2013 at 1:47 am #238916A mate of mine had a crack in his rim, he just contacted a mag wheel repairer and it only cost him $40, did a really good job too.
They are somewhere in west Sydney.
There should be a mag wheel repairer some where closer to home.

I wonder how many are still in or have been destroy in the gearbox :whistle:New clutch is in. Filed the basket and checked for wear and run out. All was ok luckily.
Ready for the Southen end ride next weekend. May have to test it out before hand as it will be put to the test down there.
