Ribs can tickle a bit, but they pale into significance to what you may end up with if you eat too many of those “chicken crimpys and dip” furkin Gallbladder disease, now that bitch knows how to bite and stay clamped in yer chest…
Oh 2nd degree burns on the upper body combined with torn cartledge in both shoulders lacerations from nylon singlet, broken ribs and a dislocated hip tickle too…..

Anything new on the pants Boulder?
Kids bought me a new pair of Answer for Fathers day, the ankle cuffs were so tight I almost had blue feet as well, so Mrs took them back got a full refund and said which do you want then? I said “Bullpitt is more like it”, and she said “don’t use that sorta language at me” so I said ” Bullpitt would do the trick” anyway when i picked my self up and the concussion left I said “Honey I will check with the blokes at Allbulltrailhacks and I think I will order some bullpitt brand ones” she said “are you being smart again” so feeling all brave now with my helmet and pressure suit on I showed her the gloves…. all is good and all I need to know now is are they durable enough?

Got it in one Mr Rocket J Squirrel, But what can anyone say it must be the truth cause I saw it written in ADB :dry:
Incredibly got past the ADB censors too, cause it’s not like them to say anything disparaging about a current big $$$$ advertiser.
I take it you don’t ride a KTM Mr RJ Squirrel?
All correct Mr Ecks-Mon, 100% correctamondo… except I don’t need to Kick Them Much, they already have a machine with inbuilt function for that…

YEIS=Yamaha energy induction system, now I can’t remember weather it was s’pose to hold vacuum, or more less likely A/F mix, but it is effectively trying to increase the volume of the inlet tract to increase torque, one of My IT’s had it at one stage I think all 2T Yamahas had a version of it…Powervalves worked better and held more promise so all energies went into developing them instead.

A few things I’ve learn’t about tying the bikes down over the years.
*Give the tie-downs afew twists before hooking up to bike, they won’t flap around as much, less freying and plastic scarring
*tie off the ends into a few hitch knots or the like, if the cam does slip, the tie down stays tight.
*hooks are best facing up in hookup eyes, the heavier end usually helps it pivot and stay in eye if momentarily loose.
*tie the rear end down, do you know how many I see with forks compressed and rear just sitting there waiting for a big braking moment to endo over the cab/drawbar?
*front brake applied with zip-tie/small ocky strap over lever, helps stop racking.
*Piece of styro/fruit juice bottle, new-age stay between guard and wheel to help “bounce”
* if in style-side ute try to place front wheels in corner at angle, will effectively shortern wheel base and bike will never slip on tray.
* plastic rub/scarring, looks real ugly, we alway front-rear-front three bikes in utes, and handgrips/levers go through seat covers real quick.
* decent tie off points at good distances away fron steering line of bike (sometimes hard to do in utes.
Personally I want to try some of those neat looking wheel-clamping thingos, anyone used them?

Same era TB, RM125Z on the trailer left side, My RM in the middle, honda sponsered riders CR450 on the right side, RM owner following us over back road to Murwillumbah-Kyogle. Ancra tie down let go on the left, Salvaged a few bits off the RM125Z apparently he was laying on the horn and hitting the highbeam onto us…how would we have known, not bleedin’ mindreaders…six months later the RM125 owner got hit by a train on a level crossing, and lived. He gave up dangerous activities after that.

Ok 330ml to 10 litres = 33:1, I’m tempted to go back to 25:1, as they definitely make more power if you jet to suit, and people forget their powervalves and bore walls need lube too, IMHO powervalve failure or premature wear is from trying to run 50-60:1 ratios and the oil is less than really required.
XY I’m sorry but a CRM and a TS can in no way be compared to a EXC250, YZ250 et al, different ballgame, like comparing a royal enfield to a YZF600, my YZ actually has ahigher rated HP than the 300exc. I was 110KG (give or take a kilo here and there) starkers and the race bred 250s still waltzed me around without any effort.

Trailbike cops are on to them on WRF450s, they know who they are I hear from aerial survelliance, but the stage was stopped as the cars were getting in start order, and the police couldn’t come back down the road they had to do aloop and by the time they got to the spot the perps were well gone.
the cops last night got the graffitti artist who has caused $15000 damage here and 4x that in Tweed shire, apparently he’s going to be sent a bill, friggin Picasso wannabe.
Everyone here is worried we’ll lose the event after all the hard work for the past 12 months behind the scenes by some of my co-workers because of these pinheaded extremeists.Oh well at least my young fella is getting some nice WRC posters out of it all.

Moto, the vibration was an issue for me over the years, but i have worked out how insulate my mounts, and while certainly more vibey than a TTR250, it is very liveable even with my left wrist which was snapped and broken backwards in an industrial accident.
The mixing of the fuel is ded easy, 330ml in a small container in yer backpack, half fill up and add then complete filling, it almost self mixes these days no biggy, more hassle to adjust tyre pressure.

I too hope to see a torquey low emissions lightweight bike finally made, the blokes on TT are highly sceptical on the idea, personally I believe it’s because it’s not all from the land of apple pie.
I’ve never used an athena in a 2T, no reason just haven’t I know they make pretty good 4T stuff so that’s abit of a surprise.
If not a rude Q banger how much for the piston kit?just collecting info for the old memory banks for sourcing stuff.

I don’t know Mick he sounds like a well informed highly intelligent individual with impecable taste in Motorcycles to me.
“Pensioner might die” because of rally, WTF they will have so many helicopters on he will be in hospital fatser than a politician with the flu, he could die yes indeedy do, so could I at any moment while doing the rounds, no hospital nearby, no ambos, if I do, do I blame the WRC??? of course I will.

Read some of the posts in this thread from a greenie site, I am so so surprised they allowed the last post to go up as it is against them.
