well done Scotty
yes your Coffs ride is truly an Epic ride very professional and hard to beat. Sorry about that last swig of straight JD that put you over the edge and caused the Cola coloured fountain that sprayed the area right in front of you :sick: I must say it was done with aplomb :laugh:Long live the King :laugh:

That moment is just one of a myriad of stupid things I have done in my life
Rememeber this post from a year or so ago?
1. Do not try and catch a falling cat. They have spikey bits
2. Do not try and catch a pup that has just been hit by a car. They too have spikey bits
3. Do not jump off a fence into long grass. Snakes live in long grass.
4. Do not run around like a lunatic after being bitten by a black snake.
5. Do not try and rub the front tyre of a dragster on your mates back wheel
6. You cannot jump a dragster over 5 garbage bins, you wont make it
7. Do not ride a dragster in speedos, they dont handle real well
8. Do not try and carry two drums of petrol on a bicycle.
9. Do not drop a paint tin with a hammer in it onto your brother’s head from a great height
10. Even the smallest molitov cocktail makes a big explosion
11. Chlorine and brake fluid mixed will start a fire
12. Horses are stupid creatures that I was never meant to ride
13. Do not try and wheelie a YZ80 on the road
14. Drinking Flag ale and Port from a flagon makes you spew like Linda Blair.
15. Do not put two pins in a power point and short them out with a metal ruler
16. Do not upset your brother who has scissors or a sharp pencil.You will get stabbed
17. Boat ramps are slippery
18. EH Holdens will start in gear.
19. Do not get in a tractor tube and let your mates roll you down the road.
20. Do not jump the 6 feet from the shed roof to the chook pen roofAnd that’s not all here are some more.
1 never grab a sparkler by the sparkly bit
2 never step off a school bus backwards while it is still moving
3 dont try and pat a dog that is growling at you
4 don’t stand in the rear tray of a tricycle and ride it down a huge hill
5 don’t pick a fight with a 100kg 12 yo Arab kid with a beard. They will beat your skinny arse.
6 don’t throw mud balls at passing cars. Your grandfather could be a passenger and see you do it.
7 A skate board will get the death wobbles at 60kmh,never jump off a skate board at 60kmh, you can’t run that fast. Even in Volleys.
8 polyester Hawaiian shirts provide no protection from gravel rash
9 If you are told to stand there and wait while a parent gets something to hit you with..Dont
10 An Evel Kenevel belt used as a tourniquet will stem the flow of blood from a gaping wound.
11 after being clobbered with a golf club, rubbing butter on the lump does nothing.
12 Whist being threatened by a girl with a cricket bat, don’t stick your head out and say “Go On I dare you”
13 Don’t slide on your arse on an old wooden varandah, then have your father remove the splinter with a razor blade.
14 Never do an “around the world” with a yo yo in a room with expensive light fittings
15 never let 2 turtles go in the local pool and brag that you did it.
16 getting caught in the pulley belts on a vacuum pump in a dairy will nearly kill you.
17 never trap a spotted quoll and try and grab it by the tail
18 a ride on plastic tractor, isn’t meant to be jumped.
19 It is fun to shoot your brother with a slug gun until your dad finds out.
20 the door of a Bedford truck will still close with your hand jammed in ityep that was a classic thread :laugh:
Lots of thick Clear 3m stuff
Get some Polisport plastics and throw on it from new keep the originals for resale time Have a look at a similar well used model and see where it is looking shabby, this will give you an idea of what needs protecting.
Use rim protectors when changing tyres
lots of bike shine

If you have to add oil straight into your fuel tank,make sure to turn your tap off and tilt your bike so the oil will run down to the non fuel tap side. Young bloke at Dungog on a YZ250 didnt do this and wasted an hour of our riding time diagnosing pulling carb apart etc ! :angry:
In a pinch a piece of aluminium can, can be shaped into a reed petal :woohoo: saw it done on a KTM495 :laugh: worked so well he left it in there for 18 months :laugh: (this should be in the Mcguyver thread ) 😆
Drill your valve stem hole slightly larger than the stem and run the lock nut to the top under the cap, if the tyre slips it wont rip your valve stem out.
Put dabs of Silicon on your alloy subframe where the seat base rubs (remove silicon before selling your bike )
stops the subframe wearing and lookin uglyBlow the shit factory grease out of your wheel bearings with compressed air,repack with a known quality grease,get much better life out of your bearings.
