Oh no Mr Menace dear man there’s plenty more what about
“can’t you hear me knocking”
“I got the blues”
“you gotta move”
“slipping away’
“terrifying”
“rock and a hard place” ( a special one for Mick)
“beat up”
“she was hot”
“beast of Burden”

just to name a few, or do we need an emotional rescue here?

a worthy adversary methinks Mr Menace… and indeed you are

Hell of a save, was looking at a good trip with flashing lights otherwise methinks………not to take anything away from his skills but the newer bikes are way forgiving, imagine that on a ??? oh say 1984 YZ125 the outcome would be way different, way way different.

Nice shots too

The KTM Blues, to the tune of the stones “start me up”

If you can start me up

If you start me up I’ll always stop

If you start me up

If you start me up I’ll always stop

I’ll keep running hot

Buy a red, you’re gonna blow my top

If you start me up

If you start me up I’ll always stop

I make a grown man cry

lose all my oil, and the gasoline

Can walk smoother, than ride that orange, mean machine

Start it up

If you can start it up

Kick on the starter give it all you got, you got, you got

U can’t compete with the riders on the other beasts

If we rough it up

If you like it I can throw U off, throw U off

I’ll make a grown man cry

Your eyes dilate, Your butt gets green

Your hands are greasy

She’s a mean, mean machine

EStart it up

If start me up

Give it all you got

You please never, never, never stop

Never, never

throw U off

I’ll make a grown man cry

Blue is like the wind at double speed

U’ll trade me in and pretend I’ve never, never been

EStart it up

Love the day when I will never stop, never stop

Never stop, never stop

Rough me up

Please never stop, never stop, never stop

You, you, you make a grown man cry

You, you make a dead man drink rum

You, you make a dead man drink rum

I see this orange bike and we need want to make it blue,
no orange vagueness anymore, I like my coccyx in one piece too,
I see the gays walk by dressed in their orange clothes
I have to help them out until their gayness goes
I see a line of bikes and they’re all painted blue
All KTMs and your steering both never to track true
I see old bulls turn their heads and quickly ride away
Like a new born rider there’s a sucker born everyday
I look inside myself and see your future is blue
I see your orange bike and it has turned quite blue
before then Ill fade away and not have to face orange poo
Its real easy facin up when your whole world is blue

No more will my orange sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin sun
My linkage will laugh with me before the mornin comes

I see an orange bike and it has turned to blue
I accept that there is yellow, red and green too
I know the gays walk by dressed in their orange clothes
I will do my best to see them through their woes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,…
I wanna see it painted, painted blue
Blue as sky, blue as cool
I wanna see the orange sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted blue

Sorry Moto, no relation he’s a drug crazed Pom, and couldn’t even hold onto Jerry Hall at full noise.

Finally a Pommie republican than I can relate too.

Down with the monarchy let them burn…….

Dear Mr Menage’, quite the contrary I have the full pouty lips of my Polynesian forebears, they drive the women wild, and possibly a linkage may cause shrinkage…of the swelling in your butt, and your sphincter muscle wouldn’t need to be as developed as there would be less need to keep it clenched. Oh my poor misguided Menage’, ride away from the orange clothed ones and find balance and harmony betwixt ones front and rear.

a short poem to alleviate your suffering

The man named Menace has been harmed,
But by his KTM he remains charmed,
But it will dawn suddenly on him one day
that it shouldn’t hurt
When all you want to do is play.

[Bruce CurtisMember]

Aha Menage’ the PDS is lulling you into a false sense of security (Pretend, Danger, Strike) until you baulk momentarily at a sharp lipped obstacle and…….Bang off you go again busted arse and all.

I wish you luck with your experiences, but i see a linkage in your future…….. :laugh:

At the bike rallies sometimes the 1 percenters would drag a jappa built bike and torch it, once or twice it was someones bike that they found in the camp area, funny thing is I see alot of them riding big jappas now.

Even I wouldn’t purposely torch a bike..not even a KTM.

just it’s rear end, just like the 300 did to Menage’when it busted his arse.

Besides you can’t burn an XR or a DR they’re lead sleds, all metal and flame proof, unlike their riders

I have a bit of anecdotal evidence on this as a benefit to OHV engines, a mate of mine owns the local taxi company and runs at any one time 20 falcons/fairmonts and three 8-10 seaters, he has a very astute business head and knows his vehicles (he has built a succession of very quick cars, currentlyas dato 1200 ute with a 375 rwhp 2.0, that handles as well). The head mechanic for the company is also my best mate and I will stand him up against anyone short of Jeremy Burgess or the late John Britten for mechanical savvy and on the hop no-bull diagnostics. These cabs in the past 5 years have conservatively done over 17 million kilometres (I can check the books, but that is from their estimations), in the early days Rodney (mechanic) was having trouble with valve recession and wear, so he put 5 cars on valve saver, those cars by far gave the least amount of problems and were kept in fleet longer, now all the fords are on it, and if it was a waster of money they wouldn’t use it as nothing frivolous is used by these blokes.
Apparently there is a compound in suspension that indeed softens the impact of valve to seat, of course with different cam profiles the ramp angle plays a huge part in this as well, which is why some aggressive power roadies used to also have this issue as well, if one could not get a liquid that can lubricate and so forth, why the hell do two stroke pre-mix work?.

IF ( that is a big IF) I ever go to cams, valves and springs and halve my power pulses, I will also be looking into this whole area very carefully and research the FACTs, cause my days of gaining enjoyment from torn down mechanicals is well behind me.

As an interesting aside to this Rodney (my mechanically gifted mate) runs 3 motorcycles ATM, a Katana 1100 (ex robbie phyllis castrol series bike), my old stove hot GSXR11, and one for the red monkeys argument a modded XR500 (like GE had) with late model front and rear suspension grafted in, Reckons you can’t beat a big XR for reliability and usable power and the big bugger can ride OK as well.

I have a ’01 dual cab Rodeo, a 2×4 built on the 4×4 platform, just as much clearnce and exact roof height as my old Nissan D-22 STI-r navara 4×4. The rodeo went I went looking had the most rear legroom amd equally biggest tray area, drives like a sedan (which the others in the price bracket were all trucklike to drive, including my ’06 D-22) the V6 is very lusty, heaps of midrange and smooth as, makes the commodore V6 look very agricultural (well it is) but is very thirsty, but I have modded mine with a few things and it still gets 13L/100 klms if I am being sensible, but if I hook in it makes my old E49 mopar look like a model of frugality, although a dualcab holding an SV6 to 170 klicks with bikes onboard makes for some very interesting comments, stuff the diesels I say lived with them for too long.

The styleside tray will only hold up to a KX65 withthe tailgate up, no biggie both of my dualcabs have had enough room with tailgate down for 3 fullsized bikes, 5 people and gear for the weekend, handles well, cruise control, big stereo, big wheels, good suspension and brakes, only thing I want now is a decent diff ratio as it is current running about a 4;55:1 and I take off in 2nd everywhere.

I am keeping this girl until she lets go then she’ll get a 5.7 inj conversion methinks, drives too nice.

Now the real question is, after all these “surveys” does the penis enhancer and viagra really help out??

Maybe Moto could also answer this before we all drop our hard earned $$$ on it:blush:

This “Huaberg” you speak of Moto, is it a Kiwi bike?
or a Kiwi takeaway delight?

Menage’ a trios, I knew you were good for something other than sinking pi$$ and busting arses, you do have a talent you could be the next “Weird Al” just think Australias’ own “Unusual Menace” playing (drinking & Stumbling) at an RSL near you.

Simmo and Giraffe Uncle…PMSL at that one Bud.
