    Yeah Ben’s a top bloke and has obviously gone to the superior manufacturer this year after struggling for years with inferior machinery…

    Change is as good as a holiday they say!

    (Waiting for the Honda explosion…)

    I’ve always liked this Gasser, and thought I’d get one to replace the banana. Unfortunately things didn’t happen that way (not that I’m unhappy with the WR). The Gasser feels slim and light (with the stock tank) and has plenty of torque. Nice smooth power that goes from idle to the top end. The bar/seat/peg relationship fit me nicely, and I think it would suit most blokes without needing serious changes.

    The small issues JRD had early in the piece had me wondering, as did the water pump seal, but the aftermarket support from Picton Motorcycles is great. So good in fact that I would buy one through them if I was in the market. There are quite a few locals who have Gassers through Picton, which also says good things about them.

    All in all a good reliable bike. I’m not too sure about the new price considering what you can get in other brands (think Husky under 10K, Yamaha under 10K) but the product itself is top knotch.

    Glad to hear you’re hanging on to the Gasser for a while yet JRD, I think that’s a wise choice!

    This thread is just gold!
    Yes its quite plain to see
    That Bluey and moto
    and ECKS, that’s us three

    Have skills quite surprising
    in rhyming and verse,
    but Bluey’s aspersions
    make moto feel worse!

    But moto, don’t worry
    You’ll not be a dad
    Till testes start dropping!
    Yes, yours my young lad!

    And as for mate Bluey
    Who thinks I’m a chick!
    Well, really now sunshine,
    A Chick with a Dick?

    :laugh:

    Old School Ballard? XR days I mean? You’d have to borrow (steal?) TB’s bike to get away with that look! :laugh:

    No sex for me Bruce?
    I’m sure that you’re wrong!
    The rumours I’ve started
    Say I’ve a long schlong!

    Now moto’s quite pretty
    with Boy Band Good Looks
    But come on, lets face it:
    Chicks don’t like crooks!

    If moto goes mo-town
    the world’s gonna end!
    Imagine the carnage!
    Not worth it, my friend!

    Besides that, poor moto
    just hasn’t the stones
    to grow more than bum-fluff!
    It’s commonly known!

    Impressive that a hard core race bike is the most reliable bike you’ve owned! It would help that it is a 2 stroke I guess. The most reliable bike I ever owned was a 1992 DR250. I’m sure it is still going! I regret selling it really, it would be a good spare bike.

    Geez you blokes are harsh!

    As I said, not to my taste, but thats a lotta hard work he’s put in to the ol’ banana! Creativity points 10, practicality points 1 (positive for the case savers, negative points for the pointless bits). Bling points? On a banana, you don’t need bling! Armour plating points? 100. But probably unnecessary – it is a banana! Too much spare time points = 200.

    I actually like this one more than the carbon fibre DRZ on TT though.

    Bruce that’s awful! I don’t know if the mental images are hurting me more, or the terrible rhyme! :P

    On second thought, its definately the mental images!:laugh:

    “Mo” rhymes with “go” – what’s the problem?? Trust me, I read enough kids poems to Jilly at bedtime to know what rhymes and what doesn’t!

    My mistake moto, I can see if I go any further with the “porn” thing you will lose your charming innocence!

    Moto, I refuse to believe you can’t imagine what a pornstar mo is! You, of all people! Maybe this will help the mental imagery: “I ‘ave come to clean ze pool!”

    Thanks ever so much Mick!
    It seems such a shame
    To stop with the rhyming
    Its such a good game!

    In case you are thinking
    there’s 500 more
    of these posts full of poetry
    The answer is: “Sure!

    As soon as the devil
    with moto and Chop
    is playing with snowballs!”
    Oops, looks like I stop!

    :woohoo:

    Wasn’t this one was it Scotty?
    cr500

    Seems AWFULLY dodgy to me!

    G’day Dozer, what a great username! Are you a D7 or a D9? Maybe a D4?

    (Moto will now ask “What’s a D4?”)
