Some cracker pictures there axel, some of the bikes and riders look familiar, pity you lost your report. Next time do it on a word doc and copy and paste it to minimise the risk of loosing it all.
Cheers and thanks for sharing those great pics.

Good idea Mick, I’ll do that next time. It was a good couple of paragraphs report and was too late to do it all again, maybe it was Karma.
Grant has a heap more pics but I haven’t obtained a copy yet.
The original ride report was more of a motivational report to encourage readers to get out and do some more multi day ride trips. They really are great value get aways. Cheers

Holy crap.
That’s definitely worth a watch.
That bloke should practice a little more…

Welcome to the club.
Will take some time to adjust. They aren’t for everybody. If you have some years of riding under your belt you’ll love it.
If it’s still brand new don’t get too carried away with engine mods. Put at least 10-15 hours on it to bed in. It’s probably chewing up fuel like crazy and the bottom end power will kick in when it’s fully run in.
The suspension also needs time to loosen up. Don’t be tempted to run too much compression dampning as it will give you arm pump something fierce as well as unsettle the bike all the time. 2 strokes like to deflect off stuff on the trails compared to 4 strokes. It’s critical to get it right.
The PV adjuster fine tunes the preload on the spring. No harm in playing with it.

G’day Ecks, I don’t think I can attend either. This weekend is going to be another heavy ride session up Lithgow way Sat/Sun and I don’t have that many leave passes. I see Patto is coming down which is great news. I might drop by and say hello but ride I won’t. Catombal is nice and hot this time of year not my cuppa tea …
See you then!

[AlexMember]

Blue don’t touch the stator until you bypass all the killswtch wires, new plug and make sure the plug cap is good.

[AlexMember]

G’day lads, I can’t make this ride as I’ll be on a sunny beach but a heads up that a few of us westies are coming back up there for a ride Sat and Sun 21/22 Nov. I’ll post up an EOI when I’m back from Holidays. Enjoy your ride.

Is it not as simple as “fixing” the cable so it won’t move within that bracket? Cable tie both sides and the job is done (which is probably what the designers intended). I agree that the bracket is a bad idea. I would do what Wikd suggests too, run the wires away/around it.

[AlexMember]

Well done! :laugh:

No beef TB. Their mags just don’t do it for me. I’m sure they are all nice blokes, nothing personal.

[AlexMember]

No worries, I’ll let it go. I don’t read so much anymore.

[AlexMember]

I have a question. Does that bloke…whats his name…Tuffy…does he have anything to do with that Mag? If not then I’ll have a form too TB.
