    You had me at “cleaned up the MX track” … I’m there! Catch you next time.

    Speaking of sleeping well; Kempsey is “no trucks heaven” now with the bypass open! Absolute bliss :-)

    A 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.

    Will give the bike a wash after riding the 12hr last weekend and putting it through a Murph ride on Saturday.

    Never ever seen my airfilters this bad before.

    + it’s new clutch time after killing it on one of Murphs hills :blush: Can’t complain as it had hell for 280hrs. Hope the bike see’s this clutch out. Should do it’s a Honda ;)

    Washed the Tenere, not with the pressure washer for the first time. Kicked the tyres and looked at the chain. 1450kms old now

    New rear tyre(impressed with the Karoo front so trying one on the rear). New HD tube. New cush drive seal, tried to remove rear wheel bearings and busted the bearing puller…try again tomorrow.
    Replaced bent upper shock bolt with high tensile bolt.

    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.
