    Hey Aaron,
    Teknik Nick and I were toying around with a similar option for the 250X as we both agree that a lighter bike is more fun with more ponies inside, I have a 450X but my friend had a 250X and it was way more fun to ride on single tracks. But with a few more ponies it would stand up in corners and leap tall buildings in a single bound we wreckon and be as exciting as a dung beetle in a cow yard! :laugh: but for what it’s worth I think you will be impressed with what you can achieve with your idea. if you need any questions answered post it on the Teknik forum and Nick will point you in the right direction.

    cheers

    You missed the gate turn on Sunday Eagle remember the gate section :whistle: The only group I may add that missed that section :P . Actually no group completed the whole course bar the lead group but we had an advantage, yup true we did Amy was leading :laugh:

    Your card is sorted BTW.

    I believe Crash and I led for a section so not lead group all the way! .. :laugh: :whistle:
    (note to self though) don”t ride in the middle of the bridge with the hole in it!! :huh: :pinch:
    had a great time in the Hippy camp for a few hours though lots of bush around there!! :blink:

    had a ball.
    been looking at that other idea we talked about too. looks as though we can do it really easy TB I’ll call you later to discuss.

    So we lost a few posts on here since friday :whistle:
    Bugger,,,

    Anyway I remember that Kamakazi Rocket was paired up with Me & Ace for the weekend, poor him :laugh:
    Welcome aboard KR, should be a hoot of a weekend, just bring your sense of adventure, your best navigation eyes and a cast iron gut ;) :laugh:

    Also saw that Steve (Wolfy) chimed in and has a couple of special guests coming along, Mr Payne from Yamaha Aus and Jason Barrett from Barrett Exhausts ;) Awsome

    I also posted the link for the maybe proposed route I might take on the friday arvo to Mittagong,

    http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=2001539

    Any other Hunter based riders have any other ideas or keen to hook up for the group ride down maybe.
    Will probably change my departure time to 3pm (Newy area) to accommodate PTW if he is keen to ride rather than drive to Wisemans ,,, No real adventure in that and cuts the ride time way too short :P

    This will be a crackerjack run as TB sure knows how to peice together a terrific ADV route and thanks to him, we get to share it and follow along at our own pace :)

    Bring it on, I can`t wait !!!!

    Thanks eagle.. and I have been warned about you lot.. :blink: TB’s given me all the dirty 4 stroke oil on you guys..bahaha.. should be a blast.. I’ll only have one night to change the dress on my girl as I fly back from the Mine on the 14th so it will be a late night for me.. :S but all good..
    see you at the pub!

    I have done this already and it does make a huge difference to my 450X. just with the disk upgrade up front the rear on mine is a little spongy but I will replace lines with braided hell lines and that should do the trick.
    interested in finding out how yours goes Rookie?
