    No worries. Thanks Murph. I have already taken something like that into consideration and have it covered. Kinda expected that to happen. ;)

    A tip to get out of jail on the trail with this problem is to put a valve stem nut between the bolt head and the adjuster to tighten the chain. We did this with mates KX and it lasted a 5 hour pony express. Make sure you wind a spanner between the chain and sprocket to make sure the adjuster pulls up tight on the bolt and valve stem nut.

    Good suggestion Jimmy. I love McGuyver fixes. :laugh:

    Bloody Hell!! Ryno is back. Welcome back mate. Cant see why you would want to move South to Sydney though. :S

    At least there will be plenty of rides to get on down that way.

    Cheers

    Welcome LTD thanks for the intro. The TT sounds like a beauty!! Had one myself many years ago.

    Keep an eye on the site and you will see a ride or two pop up that would be suitable for the big girl!!

    What results do they have in state and Aus title rounds Mick ?

    Better than any of my results! :laugh:

    They both are consistent riders in the State rounds over the years.

    Just so you know Caitlin isn’t just a pretty face , she is studying for an engineering degree and just loves riding dirt bikes and she does it well.
    Here she is pictured with Elle Jones (younger sister of Jackie Jones of 2009 ISDE fame). Another young lady that would most likely kick your arse on a MX track.

    Why a motorcycle company has not picked up these two ladies for marketing purposes, is beyond me. :huh:
