    g’day moto. how many kms have ya done on the new bike. i would’nt be holden it pinned in 5th gear for any great distance (ie on the road) until ya had about 1000 kms on it. like ya said it’s hard to ride it flat stick in the bush any way so revin it out through the gears there is not much of a problem. the new synthetic oils are great but they don’t have the meat that the old mineral oils had. they (mineral)probably wore the bore a bit quicker though. when ya hold it pinned it burns like a bastard in the chamber and runnin the the new oils pretty lean as we do these days can dry it out and that’s when she’ll seize. once it’s all bed in real nice ya won’t have a problem and you’ll get heaps of kms out of it before ya gotta change ya piston and rings. before my current 300 i brought new 1999 300 and did’nt change the ring and piston until about 5000kms and it looked great inside the barrel. before that i had a 1996 360 and it was the same although i did’nt rebuild it until about 8000 kms and it was good too. i remember thinkin i ripped myself off cause it did’nt really need doin. i hope it makes sense there moto as i’m no mechanic and it’s just my opinion.

    we all take a different track in life and end up where we are one way or another. ya can tell what a bloke’s like when ya meet him. if he’ an arsehole being an imagrant ain’t gunna change much. he’s still an arsehole. but if he’s a good bloke i’ll have beer with him no worries. we are all pretty lucky to live here at this time and age. i don’t care where ya come from as long as ya fit in and don’t get involved in criminal and other bad shit.

    politics and religion ah ollie. they get people goin mate :)

    settle down there young diddel….give us old fellas some credit for being keen ah mate…we might be older but we still enjoy a ride. i pulled out on old foresty map when i got home of the area and i’m sure i’ve been on some of those tracks although it was a while ago and i did’nt reckonise any. Thanks for organising it diddel and good to meet tf2 and flapper. Thanks murgh for sweepin me up along the way too mate.

    The Turbo Diesel Prado’s are great in the bush. I’ve done alot of work with them in the field over the last fews years and have giving them an absolute flogging and they keep on going. They run good on the highway too. My nephew had a Territory but sold it pretty quickly as he reckoned it was a shitbox in the bush. I wish i was in the field now instead of the office.
