    Piglet looks the goods for sure ;)
    The Spot Tracker is here ready for you to go Pete, pm sent ….

    The route TB has explained is the way to go for sure, it is the same route I took home after I rode Mt Irvine with Dejay, stayed at TB`s and rode home solo on the sunday a while back B)
    Took me about 3hrs 45 on the dot with fuel stop at Blaxland and Wisemans and it was pissing doen in the Watagans on the way back :whistle: :laugh:

    I can help you out with the route if you need help ;) I had plotted it on the GPS software & printed some paper maps to double check ,,,,,, Think I still have the route plotted on the laptop mate

    Cheers

    Thanx for the report Jeffro :)
    Looks like Bull still knows how to put on an epic weekend of riding & hospitality (pity he is still hobbling around though) :unsure:
    Hopefuly I can make the next Bulls Weekend at Rollands :) :) :)

    I had a late notice ride myself today with a mate . A lazy 100k crazy loop down to Hawkmount Rd area near Cooranbong, and back through some local trails and powerline tracks …

    We got lost a bit, but had a great time searching for an old Quarry (that we didn`t find in the end) :laugh:
    But we also found some tight twisting leafy singles and a tonne of muddy creek crossings :whistle: :woohoo:

    Also managed to stall the 690 on a rather steep conglomerate hill,,,,, which resulted in a little drop to the left and some new scars :blink:

    Cheers

    That`d be right,,,,
    He might be overstocked & I am underfunded :whistle: :pinch:

    Will work out something after Easter holidays ;)

    Cheers Again

    Sounds about right Murph for the thermo switch mate :whistle:
    I got a Rally Raid one for my 690 from the UK & it cost me $70 landed here .
    It does lower my fan cut in temp from 105 degrees to 88 I think,,,,
    I am also going to run a switch as a backup ;)

    Back on topic now ,,, sorry :blink:

    Yeah, that combo sound and looks pretty good ;) Thanx
    I liked the look of the E09 front but was unsure on the rear after the reports on them,,,,,

    I will save up after Easter then `cause the Mefo`s are dearer than I would normally fork out :whistle:

    Hopefully I can get a good deal B)

    I`ve been there twice with knee surgery & it aint good :whistle:
    I have the Delkevic Braces and find them comfy enough. Lower end of the braces price scale, but they have saved my knee once already (when I twisted my ankle badly last year)
    I actually felt the brace supporting my knee at the time and thought “this aint good”, but all was ok when I got up :)

    Always buy the best you can afford when it comes to protective gear though ;)

    Unsure Spidy, I don`t have roydys, but you can check if you like :P

    how do you blow it up? with your mouth or a pump?

    Mouth, unscrew the ltlle lock on the valve and breath in lightly

    any possibility of poppin it on a hard landing/stack?

    Maybe, with your big ass :laugh: :P
    They are really quite tough bladders (but do come with a puncture kit) :whistle:
    The amount of air I ran, it would be virtually impossible to pop,,, unless you overinflate it I guess ????

    Cheers Big Ears

    They have small straps that run under the standard seat, adjustable and simply hook to the sides of the cushion cover ;)
    Easily suited to more than one bike seat too ,,,

    I might add that I ran the Airhawk on yesterdays 240k, with not much more than the amount of air in it in that pic (needs stuff all air) It moulds to your ass shape, like a lumber support cushion for a seat in your car or truck B)

    Cheers
