    the newer models must be different,,a mate came around and we couldn’t find a circlip anywhere.
    so with sum deliberating we stuck it in a vice and screwed it apart.. and it worked good till the oil came spurting out….got the new spring on..just gotta get it refilled now….
    anyone have a rough idea what the cost of that would be ….

    you will be lucky to get out of it for under $200

    oil = $30
    Regas = $40+
    labour = 1.5hrs at approx $85 $130

    but it will be done right and you wont have to worry about it throwing you in the scrub

    Yep had a great ride in the Maria NP scouting tracks for a Kundabung to Plomer Rd ride. For those interested, I found the bridge that crosses the Maria river. It’s quite solid but has about an eight foot long gap in the middle. The good news is I got permission to use the Ushers land and got through from Berangi Road to Maria River road and from there it’s only a short road stint to Limeburners and through to Plomer road. Happy Days

    Good effort Kram;) I will be up there in a months time,Gassy will be on the UteB)

    Gili and I took some mesh some steel pegs a Machete and a chainsaw down Panadol Hill and repaired some ruts and built a bridge to stop the erosion happening. The walk out back up Panadol give me a headache and nearly heart failure:blink: We then went to our secret track and rode down it and hooked it up with another beauty,although this new bit of track is not for the faint hearted easily grade 5 all up we did 35kms on the bikes and about 5 kms on foot.Bloody hot and dusty. On the way home we nearly cleaned up a couple of kids on MX bikes:angry: riding up the main Watagan Forest Rd and they wonder why we are losing riding areas:( Thats my rant

    Im going to bed Im rooted:unsure:

    Every little bit helps, good job BTW ;)

    Just thought are you cutting new, clearing vines etc or repairing damage?

    TB

    repairing Damage through a creek, also have some mesh to stop the ruts. Only problem is its about a 3k walk carrying shit to get to the area. Also clearing some vines and stuff from another old track to link up another (secret location;) )

    I met a 14 year old girl on the internet. She was clever, funny, flirty and sexy, so I suggested we meet up.
    She turned out to be an undercover detective.
    How cool is that at her age?!

    I went to see the nurse this morning for my annual check-up.
    She said I had to stop w @nking.
    When I asked why she said, “Because I’m trying to examine you!”

    I just saw that Harry Potter film. A bit unrealistic if you ask me. I
    mean, a ginger kid, with two friends?

    When I got divorced, my wife said she would fight for custody of the kids.
    Took her out with one punch.

    I was walking in a cemetery this morning and saw a bloke hiding
    behind a gravestone. I said “morning.”
    He replied, “No, just having a crap.”

    Disabled toilets. Ironically, the only toilets big enough to run around in.

    I was reading in the paper today about this dwarf that got pick pocketed.
    How could anyone stoop so low?

    I was walking down the road when I saw an Afghan bloke standing on a fifth floor balcony shaking a carpet.
    I shouted up to him, “What’s up Abdul, won’t it start?”
