Oh it will Bite.
Yeah I think I’ll get a 48 for the longer rides and the 52 for the single track stuff, I still can’t work out how those guys are saying their getting 135kph out of the 250 with stock gearing.

Quote:In a spur of the moment, rash decision, I bought my boat off a mate without asking the wife.
I towed it home and arrived after she was in bed asleep.
The next morning, I woke up in a mad panic trying to think of a way to break the news to her.
When she got out of bed I still had no idea what to tell her, so here is how it went.
Mick. “ Ian sold his boat yesterday”
Lessa “He did? How much for?”
Mick “$3500”
Lessa “ Geez that was cheap, you should have bought it!!”
Mick “ I did” With broad grin on my face.
Lessa. “What are you doing buying things without asking blah blah blah you %&*#@”
Mick. Now with smug look gone from my dial “But you just said I should have bought it”
Lessa “ I know I said that, but at that stage I didn’t know you had bought it, you bastard.”Sometimes with women, you will never win.
Still to this day I reckon it was the best $3500 I ever spent!!
That is Gold Mick, Menace It’s all good we’re all pretty thicked skin around here.
Yep should I get a 450 so I can go faster!
Hey Aaro, I know chopper has had some back work done but not sure what maybe he can shed some light on it, was the original injury from the bikes.
Cheers
Chris.Hey Dan, that’s great news, good to see you followed it up all the way and got the result in the end.
Cheers

Is that a fair deal ??? I have no idea:unsure:Also gave him some flyers that he`s gonna laminate & stick in window of shop:) Reckons he might copy some off & place em on the counter as well for dudes to pick up;)
I spoke to him & his wife prior to Hill End when I picked up spare chain link etc he was keen to hear how we went, so I dropped by today for a yarn:P
He is impressed with our setup, type of riding & general attitude to all in the sport:woohoo:If you guys are around this way pop in to his shop for a chat,OR a purchase of some parts or gear. He`s a nice bloke (like us):cheer:
Good work eagle, we will go forth and multiply.

I could chug up the rocky hills with ease, was cumfy cruising through the farm country and on the open dirt roads the speedo spent a bit of time above 140 :ohmy: lucky no cops around hey ,
. Even loved the single track at the end, still felt like I could keep going no probs.
I was completely knackerd by that stage just kept thinking don’t crash and do a moto so took it very very easily, I think even if I could do 140kms it would scare the crap out of me, Maybe playing around with the rear sprocket for the next long ride might help. Or maybe just get a 450 as well or a 2nd hand DRZ for the longer rides, like that’ll happen.
Cheers
