    There’s a lesson right there guys. :laugh:[/quote]

    You’re right there Mick. I hate doin stuff around the house cause it eats into other stuff like riding, cost money and is a pain in the arse when things don’t work out how ya thought they would :laugh:

    It keeps the missus happy though for some reason. I generally walk around swearin and letting everybody know that in not happy “BECAUSE I COULD BE DOIN SOMETHING BETTER THAN THIS SHIT.” :laugh: That’s life… ya gotta eat ya vegies sometimes :laugh:

    Being a spectator I did’nt think it seemed too bad Tramo. I see what ya sayin though. Once the riders passed the injured rider they were on the gas and hookin in again.
    Rules are rules and they havta stick by em I guess. :)

    Hi Murph

    I hurt me back a couple of months ago and am just about ready to get back on the bike. Put new wheel bearins and new tyre on on the weekend only to realise all the bushes and bearings in the swing arm are gone, aswell the seal behind front sprocket is leakin….so I’m gunna get onto it over the next couple of weeks which will give my back a bit longer to get right.

    It does sux mate for sure. I did’nt do mine riding though. It just shit itself when I was doing some weekend chores around the house.

    Hope ya have quick recovery mate. We will havta try and have ride or 2 before xmas

    :laugh:

    It should be. Being the EXC model and it has a compliance plate it should be good to go I reckon.

What arseholes especial seein they are’nt local people.I’d hate to be the oldman who has ta tell the kids no more ridin :( It sucks when good people get shafted. ya might havta sort em out at the pub mate :angry:

    Looks pretty lucky to me Mick espiecally since young Connor was’nt hurt too bad. My KTM has the circlip and I’ve never put a new one on when changin sprockets. I’ll give TB’s advice a crack next time though.

    I’ve been in your position Action. :( I hate doing them but what I find now days is if i’m struggling with it i have a break and go back to it a bit later. I sit my wheel in an old steel bucket thats just a bit rounder than the sprocket and disk and I have an old truck lever and other various ones of different lengths aswell as big rubber mallet and some dishwashing liquid. I get it out on the grass and get a bit of musle power goin and rip in. The young blokes come in handy to when i run out of hands ie “can ya hold this bloody lever for me”. I know a young bloke that is super quick and all he uses is round piece of ply wood that he puts the wheel on and goes for on the ground. He rides enduros though and I’m just old trail rider. :laugh: They’re a pain in the arse. :) Once done though i’ll have a beer and tell myself how good I am :laugh: Practice is the key IMO mate.

She won’t complain about you going riding after a morning in the chair telling the hair dresser/therapist telling them how you aranged all this out of the blue for her.

    I like ya style Fester. I’ll be using that one some time soon I reckon. :laugh:

    Have a good ride mick :)
