    Mate that slab gets so cold I put a six pack of cold beer down and a six pack of shelf beer and by time I’m on the second sixxer its ready to drink!

    poo tickets are there to “catch any stray oil” which isn’t working too well. I don’t have enough rags and ran out of paper towel :(

    I HAVE NO SHAME! :D

    BTW there’s a fair amount of discussion over on the adv site including a thread in the aussie forum. Some pricey parts on it!

    They had one in at Broadmeadow that was ready to be picked up and they said they had an R in the week before but it only lasted a day or two and got snapped up. I reckon it’d be a great bike to set up for riding up the cape or even rides like TB’s organising. I’ll just keep dreaming :D

    Cheers ;)

    I’ve been doing my best to keep each dump separate and in a clear container so I can take a pic of it but I’ll have to get some more because I’ve filled them all!

    Will mechanics take your old oil or do you have to pay to dump it at the tip?

    I flogged the bloody kicker for about 30 minutes trying to get it going tonight and it had me beat – almost anyway. I pushed the choke in and gave it two kicks and she fired up and purred 👿 B)

    took it for a run and its sounding and running great so Ive dropped the oil again and will take another load of oil through it tomorrow then a full run saturday.

    Any chance you could merge these posts back into the main thread? If not you can just bin them no worries. ;)

    I’ll run it for 5minutes down the road tonight and maybe tomorrow then take it to sugarloaf early am this saturday and I’ll just stay within reasonable distance to the car :D I might even take some gear with me and run it for 30minutes then dump it and run it again for another 30 or whatever I have time for.

    It doesn’t have any road gear on it so I don’t want to spend too much time on the black top.

    For shit’s sake just don’t share it guys!

    Moto where’d you get the kit from? Its bloody hard to find any for the 07 excf but I’m told there’s a team rockwell and a bad boy one. I like the look of the rockwell but the pics I’ve seen have white plastics which I’m not bothering with.

    haha zing zing!

    Yeah I’ll just have a punt around sugarloaf if you’d like to join me but it won’t be much.

    My brother has a landscaping business and works a lot more hours than I do and he has a couple of youngin’s so I volunteered to do it so it got done ASAP and I’d get the opportunity to learn about it. He’s down in Wollongong with my bike which needs the oil drain bolt helicoiled and hasn’t even gotten around to dropping that off yet. I did another run to KTM Newcastle (broadmeadow) and I’ve bought all of their cheaper oil and had to go around the corner to the wholesaler to get another 4L. I figure the more flushes the better so it’s a worthy investment.

    There was another set on there that I was going to post up about but someone bought it now at $300.

    I’ll try and do a write up but I’m not too experienced with ergos etc so It’ll just be what I can feel and put into words ;)

    Yeah the silly bugger fell into a lake so deep all that 383 could see of him was his helmet peak and a bar end then he panicked and leapt out forgetting about the bike and had to get back in for it :D If only I had the camera aimed on him it would’ve been a lifelong priceless moment to show his kids how to impersonate a hippo :p

    Picked myself up a cheap set of PHDS clamps off ebay this morning so I’m stoked :D
