Righto TB, more sand! These F&^%ers are going down
Was looking at doing the run to birdsville and then the flinders next year,
I’m thinking I need the practice
And no I dont remember being passed in the sand section, it didnt happen, nope, never saw you

Good
It was fun the first time around, now we can move on.Out of curiosity though, how many people NOT riding adventurized dirt bikes managed the sand section on the pegs? I have to know :pinch:

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I was hoping you would spot that! And you dont even ride an XC anymore
bloody sand, with 200000 klm of 4wd touring over the last few years I was happy to never see another sand track again …. but no, TB goes and slams a sand section on an adventure bike ride. F%#*
Seriously though it was pretty fun, its always a good laugh when a large ego ends up on its arse in the sand, wookie was laughing quite hard when the squiggle lid popped up from between the wooboys
Mainly becuase I was doing just fine but took his advice. “I reckon it would be easier just getting up on the pegs and hooking in” he said ………. “I’M OFF” I yelled 7 seconds later His advice sucked. Gotta love the bike to bike intercom.http://www.uniflow.com.au/contents/en-us/d341.html
No probs, blathered on a bit
Its not a tank off job wigster, there is a bracket at the back of the tank you have to take off, just a couple of bolts, the pre-filter is just a rubber insert so you basically just work it backwards out of the airbox, clean, oil, replace and put the bracket back on.
Ill do mine tomorrow and take a couple of pics or a vid for you.
Its a 10 min job
Thats correct james, heated gear replaces think layers and comes with wire harness that takes 10 minutes to install. I put one on each bike so I can swap and change and stay warm
Looking for a better example for you james and found this one…… much more entertaining

Tb is spot on james, you may get a little bit of a dribble as you disconnect it but dont panic its just the little bit of fuel sitting in the line. You can always put a rag underneath to catch any dribbles so they dont leak over the motor etc.
Your yami is most likely to have the two sided push type connector with a slide lock that you will have to raise before you can push the buttons in to remove, similar to first example in vid below.
