    Thought about running nothing but was also more concerned about something piercing from the front – which would be my luck :pinch:

    I will wait till after the Rideadv nav ride then have a go at trying to fit the tank. :whistle:

    I`ll let you lead on the way down to the Nav ride Linz so the 690 doesn`t throw any spears at ya ;) :laugh:

    Sorry mate :whistle
    I have failed to find it this evening,,, I will continue to look and if it turns up it is yours.

    I did however do some prep on the 690 for the upcoming Nav ride :)

    I had the same sized resistor on the heated grips I used to run.
    I put a strip of heat shrink over the top of the resistor and it gave it some protection from doing what yours has done Jeffro. I did have one fall apart early days and sourced a new one from Jaycar.

    I may have a spare resistor here somewhere too mate, I will dig around in the cave and let you know if I find it. You can have it if it`s still there mate (next time your home for a visit) ;)

    Yep, All the hard work is done, all that`s left to do now for the lucky participants is ride, ride & ride :woohoo:

    Looks like they will get wet asses tomorrow as it is flogging down here at present, AGAIN as it has for the past week and a bit !!! and the trails up to and beyond Cessnock will be wet & slippery :silly:

    Enjoy it guys, wish I was ridin` the route too, wet or not to be honest…

    I was hopeful of making at least the first leg Gav, but things aren`t panning out that way mate :S

    He (Scott Britnell) is linked to NickJ`s mate Lee Palmer at Crossroads MC at Grafton.
    Lee helped with some prep and organized sponsors and support etc, so it`s been a good buildup to the task ;)

    Looks like he`s heading south to get the bike serviced maybe, or has called off the return leg :whistle:
    No firm info just yet, but I`m sure it will come soon.

    I really hope he does the return leg and smashes it both ways :woohoo:

    Yeah, He`s going at it full throttle , literally :laugh:
    Helps having fuel and full wheelsets buried along the way too I suppose,,,
    Still an unbelievable achievement even if he didn`t finish for some unknown, unfortunate reason :whistle:

    Can`t fathom being able to tell the missus I`m going for a ride from Byron to the furthest western point in WA, and by the way,,, I`ll be back by next weekend :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    What a Legend !!!

    Since we on Old Bulls condone and respect doing the right thing whilst riding in both Public and Privately owned areas,,,
    I would think one wouldn`t think twice about stopping if one were doing the right thing, rego`d, licensed etc etc ;)

    We have some members that do work for the Authorities and I`m sure they may be able to answer the original question :)

    He is a nutcase on that KTM Dakar bike Cowboy.
    Looks like he will hit Steep Point easily tomorrow and be on the way back before the afternoon. Less than 4 days to traverse from Byron Bay to Steep Point.

    Well on the way to an 8 Day (or dare I say less) crossing on the country BOTH WAYS!!!

    GO SCOTT GO ;)

    Sounds like a good, overdue change Nato ;)
    Looks like Corey needs some temptation lately from what I saw last week, the KLX buried in the back of the shed :blink:

    Wish “counting the cash” was my excuse Shane :laugh:
    A redundancy, 4 months unemployed and a sick wife put a hold on me for the year mate.

    Anyway, you have the right idea though :woohoo:

    Cheers

    Great run that by the looks of your pics mate. Reminds me of the stuff I`ve been missing out on the past few months :pinch:

    Next year needs to change for me I reckon :)
    Thanks for the report,,,
