    Aaron, Karma is a site option we used to run in the early days of OBT. There used to be buttons for you to give someone “karma” if their post was helpful and informative. There was also a button there to take Karma away from them, if you thought they where being a dick. Unfortunately, the system was getting abused as all karma transactions where anonymous and you could give or take karma with no repercussions, so we had to get rid of it in the end.
    Thumpertalk had a similar system called Gas, which in the end suffered the same fate.
    As for the flashing yellow box (Green actually) that indicates that particular member is online at that time, a red box indicates they are Offline.
    Any site questions can be directed to us here in the tech forum or via PM.
    Hopefully that explains your question.
    Cheers
    Mick

    OK, I see your mistake,ol mate does look and ride a bit like me. The number plate on the front of The BRP and the white boots should have been a give away, that it wasn’t me though. Besides you would have heard me swearing over the sound of the idling two stroker. :laugh:

    I am suggesting that the rider of the XR has the initials of N.J if my info is correct. ;)

    The manual for my sons KX85 says that you have to change the rings after every three races. Um that definately didn’t happen. :laugh:
    Got near on three full race seasons on the one set of rings,before the piston cracked. :dry:

    Your story sounds similar to mine.
    I had an XR600 with the HRC 630 kit in it and thought it was the ducks guts.

    Untill

    I test rode the Fiddy and it lost traction on the tar, with road trail tyres on it. That sold it to me. There was bugger all comparison between the two bikes.
    It was in all but mint condition when I got it with about 9000kms, it has 16000 on it now and hasn’t really missed a beat.

    Photo I took at the test ride.

    electrical thing?? Did you drain the carby?? I would be thinking that a bike that has been sitting around for a while might have a few things floating around in the carby

    Reminds me of the Passani (sp) power pipes from the XR75 in the 70’s. Same shape but with a baffle on the end.

    Hope you clean those Staintune pipes before you send them to the lucky buyer. ;)

    Having read all the reports, I deem that Snowys version of events appears to be the most credible.
