I am now at a loss of how to stop the ar$eholes, now that they now just cut your frame instead of the chains and locks.

    :angry: :angry: :angry:

    Mamma Mia, I reckoned someone might be desperate enough to do that, but never heard of it actually done, our are like icks, and between the triples as well, another spot is the linkage cutout in the swingarm run the kryptonite wire/chain through there.

    Alarmed shed and three wandering Hounds that the delivery bloke told me today he doesn’t like going near the back fence because of.

    At a loss as to what else can be done.

    :laugh: Thats funny,was he a 2T or 4T or both

    4T man through and through, mostly roadies, had a few dirtbikes through the years, he bought a RM500 once, used to ring me up to get me to come around and start it, as his 4T technique wouldn’t work…. he sold it fairly quickly as it wasn’t his cuppo’T
    Was an absolute hoot to ride with him, and he was an intimidating figure at 6’4″ and 130 kilos of muscle, but an absolute dedicated hoon and nutcase.

    He ended up getting meningitis and lives in wheelchair now.

    Is that a 02 250SX??? I had one that looked a lot like that one that got pinched!!! I know that isn’t it though. I would know that bike anywhere. They are hard work. :S

    Close Mick it’s an 01 plated (’02 Model) 300 exc, almost got it perfect that bike except for the PDS.

    magic motor would torque around at walking pace in 2nd and then snap throttle straight onto the rear, no clutching need apply.

    Good one Axel, except it had my nephews’ plastics on it there off His ’01 SX

    Actually XY has an excellent point, as it is not overly necessary for a dirtbike engine to be whisper quiet, why aren’t Roller/Rockers used on all of them and screw and nut adjustment instead of shims, cause to be honest Shimming sux and topends with bearing certainly beat the hell out of plain metal to metal contact.

    My GSXR and the wifes ZXRs had shims (different sizes of course) and it cost me a small fortune everytime I did the valve lash.

    I was 107-109 12 months ago, got down to 95 (stress induced apparently, and i took up smoking again after 5 yrs off) but have noticed I am starting to “fill out” again so when I get home i’ll weigh myself and join in.

    unfortunately i come from “heavy” stock….. Polynesian and Scots, so we do tend to get a bit bigger as time goes by.

    Whats wrong with GREEN?

    I owned a 1981 KLX250, I’ve never owned another kawasaki since, although my wife did own a highly modded ex superbike ZXR750J2 that came in at under 180kg which was a fun bike.
    But personally never owned one since.

    I absolutely hate be beaten by anything I know I can do, s’pose there’s afine line between bravery and foolish behaviour, and that line differs for all of us.

    that’s cool Boony, being a course marshall is a necessary job, every club can use more and it’s good to watch everyone else crash.
