I know some IT buffs that will make some offer on the IT if Boony gets cheap on you.OK Axel the tank is yours, if you want it.
Boony is out of the equation re; the IT. I have someone else interested in the IT at the moment but it is first in best dressed at this stage.

TB
I was bored had to make my own FUN!!!!
A day up here riding in the Lantana trails would cure Chris of any of that track cutting nonsense… :laugh: :pinch:
BUMP, Still a few things that need to go.
Must have been good. Had TB on the phone earlier and he was all but frothing at the mouth, telling me about it! :laugh:
I am of the thinking that the SX models are really designed to be on a mX track. 4 laps and back to the pits to cool down before the next race. The EXC is meant for longer slower riding. I am thinking that KTM have all the extra stuff like a thermostat etc. there for a reason.
This guy would fit in at the Friday night shed parties well. It appears that he likes a ciggie or two. Worth the time to watch.
Awesome pictures Smurph. Great work, your photos always make for great ride reports!! As they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
BTW you are silly bastards riding in that crazy stuff !!!! :laugh:
Is that Billy Connolly in this pic???

Has the tank had fuel in it Mick ??? What size in ltrs roughly ???
CheersYeah Eagle it would be buried in amongst the pile of empty beer bottles and ciggie butts.
I am thinking the tank is about 80 litres, you do the sums, it is 900 x 570 x 220. It has had fuel in it years ago but is dead dry now. If you are looking for a water tank I have a plastic one here out of a caravan that is a bit smaller and has a tap on it.
Boony wrote:um you leavin town big fella??Funny you should say that………
Do you and Bill still want the IT???
Anything I haven’t used for 6 months is gunna get sold. That means I probably have some common sense around here somewhere I better sell too. :laugh:
I wasn’t condoning it. I was just pointing out part of the problem.
I realise we are lucky up here to have the opportunity to ride in the bush with our kids legally, it is the thousands of other owners of MX bikes that hit the bush each and every weekend that need to realise the risk they are taking. Just saying….. :dry:
I am not getting on my high horse either……….I have seen a young bloke on a green bike in spots he shouldn’t have been legally. Like i said there lies the problem, even people that know the rules are still prepared to flaunt it….same as drink driving for instance.

Young blokes on limited incomes ( we have all been there) that own MX bikes, are faced with all these costs to go for a ride or do they just “hit the bush” and do it 10 times cheaper than a club day. I know where I would have chosen in the same situation..i do agree with the costs ofa days track riding, but its only 10 times cheaper until you hit another vehicle or you get caught by the policeman.and rules are rules?
Tell that to a young fella that is a bit low on funds and wants to go ride. I know that’s the rules and so do they but they are prepared to run the gauntlet for the fun of a ride. Like i said earlier “There lies the problem”.

Unfortunately, I wont be able to make this one, as we are heading off for a one month trip to Krusty’s homeland the following weekend.
