It’s got to be Menace.
Who isn’t a fan of the fat spiderman! And to top it off, he rides a 2T KTM.
As Menace says…great ride report, photo’s and vid’s.
Shame about the carnage Moto, your watch looks like it has seen better days.

I am about 4 to 6 weeks away from my next ride! Unfortunately I binned the bike on the Kowen Ride, fracturing my arm and shoulder. Being in the paddock hurts more than the injury. Anyway, I look forward to catching up on a ride.
Giddee-up….I will be in that.
Thanks TB. Definately, I am always keen to get the boys out and about for a ride. I have taken them to Pacific Park a couple of times, which is good for kids, if not a bit feral at times.
I’m at Wahroonga, about 40 minute to Pacific Park, fortunately not as far away as the CC.
My Brother has had one for almost a year now. He loves the bike for what he does on it, mostly commuting to and from work on tar and the bike eats that up. Off-road he is enjoying it far better now he has put nobbies, barkies and a lower gear ratio on it. I finally won him over with decluttering all the non-necessary road bling. That lightens up the bike but for anyone that is +80kg, the bike does bottom out. Next he is having the suspension set-up by Teknik, better spring on the rear and stiffening up the front end. Great bike and I see Heffo is also promoting them next to the WR-F in his training camps.
The POSITIVES as I see them are – 1. the economy of an EFI bike, 2. the quiet exhaust note it has, but most importantly 3. the general maintenance free nature of the “super-trailer”
The NEGATIVES is two fold – 1. not having a kick-starter, which is a pain if someone has jimmied the ignition ($300 and a 3 week wait for the part to be freighted to Oz) and 2. the ERROR signal you get every time the bike is dropped.
All up I rate the bike……………..but couldn’t own it.:blink: It is just not ORANGE.
That said I believe a WR400R at the same weight would be a market leading seller, that I would buy, but only to tow the Mrs around on!
Great ride report and the photo’s make it so much better. Looks like a great ride weekend.
Hey Presto – thanks Micknmeld & Moto. Great to learn how to post photo’s and complete the original post. :cheer:
You will see below the little DR-Z70, it is a near bullet proof mini-bike. My 9 yo is now too big for its small wheels, but I am refusing to change him up to a TTR or KLX until the other lad, a 7 yo starts to ride this bike. I hope for his sake that is before he turns 18!
What I can not understand is why the youngest is scared of mini-bikes. On any given weekend he plays rugby as a halfback and will drop any 50kg polenesian kid on their back, but scared sh#tless of riding even on the back of the KTM.
Husband takes his wife to play her first game of golf…..Unfortunately, the wife promptly whacked her first shot right through the window of the biggest house adjacent to the course.
The husband cringed, ‘I warned you to be careful! Now we’ll have to go up there, find the owner, apologize and see how much your lousy drive is going to cost us.’
So the couple walked up to the house and knocked on the door. A warm voice said, ‘Come on in.’
When they opened the door they saw the damage that was done: glass was all over the place, and a broken antique bottle was lying on its side near the broken window.
A man reclining on the couch asked, ‘Are you the people that broke my window?’
‘Uh…yeah, sir. We’re really sorry about that,’ the husband replied.
‘Oh, no apology is necessary. Actually I want to thank you… You see e, I’m a genie , and I’ve been trapped in that bottle for a thousand years. Now that you’ve released me, I’m allowed to grant three wishes. I’ll give you each one wish, but if you don’t mind, I’ll keep the last one for myself.’
‘Wow, that’s great!’ the husband said. He pondered a moment and blurted out, ‘I’d like a million dollars a year for the rest of my life.’
‘No problem,’ said the genie ‘You’ve got it, it’s the least I can do. And I’ll guarantee you a long, healthy life!’ ‘And now you, young lady, what do you want?’ the genie asked.
‘I’d like to own a gorgeous home complete with servants in every country in the world,’ she said.
‘Consider it done,’ the genie said. ‘And your homes will always be safe from fire, burglary and natural disasters!’
‘And now,’ the couple asked in unison, what’s your wish, genie?’
‘Well, since I’ve been trapped in that bottle and haven’t been with a woman in more than a thousand years, my wish is to have sex with your wife.’
The husband looked at his wife and said, ‘Gee, honey, you know we both now have a fortune, and all those houses What do you think?’
She mulled it over for a few moments and said, ‘You know, you’re right. Considering our good fortune, I guess I wouldn’t mind, but what about you, honey?’
‘You know I love you sweetheart,’ said the husband. I’d do the same for you!’ So the genie and the woman went upstairs where they spent the rest of the afternoon enjoying each other in every way. After about three hours of non-stop sex, the genie rolled over and looked directly into her eyes and asked, ‘How old are you and your husband?’
‘Why, we’re both 35,’ she responded breathlessly.
‘ NO S***.’ He said, ‘Thirty-five years old and you both still believe in genies?’:woohoo:

NOT SURE IF THIS WORKING…IF NOT I WILL GIVE UP!
LOL…..I hope this photo is posted….if not I give up.
G’day BigFella
Welcome on and hope to see you roosting the Yam out there at some stage.
FezzaGreat ride report and photos’ especially the river crossing. :woohoo:
It was a fabous ride. Very well organised and demo bikes to test. The DSMRA lads put on a fabulous day.
Unfortunately for me, I was a bit ambitious on a snotty hill after Lamb Chop and binned the bike hard, fracturing both my arm and shoulder. Stupid really I still had another loop to complete and some really cool rides set-up. The next ride can’t come quick enough.
A mate posted the following photo’s and video on the attached link. You will see the Trailzone lads filming some “carnage” on Lamb Chop. I hope you enjoy it.
Cool…I will have a crack at the different settings, that is one of the great things about the 3hungee, you can play with so many settings relatively easily. Unfortunately the only thing holding me back is the 8 weeks needed until I can ride again. I was a bit ambitious at the Kowen Rally on the weekend and binned the bike hard, fracturing both my arm and shoulder. Stupid really I still had another loop to complete and some really cool rides set-up. The next ride can’t come quick enough.
