    Nice vid Nato and how about those fish. Hope it didn’t bring back bad memories of old girlfriends. :sick:

    Out of the group you listed I would say the KTM350 but if you have a secret desire for a 2t as it would seem with the WR250 2t (all 4t riders have secret desires for 2t) have a sneaky look at the 300 2t when your at Suttos.

    in reply to: Front break leaver travel? #236411

    Tez, being a three year old bike Tez, if you don’t know when they were bleed last it can’t hurt to flush some new fluid through them. Good chance it has the same fluid it left the factory with.

    When you say too much travel, how much are we talking? All the way to the bars or just further than your used too. Does the brake feel like its got plenty of progressive power.

    The reason I ask is the Brembo on my Husky has a completely different feel to my RMX (like you previously owned).

    The RMX has very little travel with a very hard lever feel but the brake has only average stopping power, you could almost call it woody.

    In comparison the Husky has a softer, longer throw but it is very progressive with huge amounts of power. 150kg bike with my fat 110kg body is easily and controllably pulled up with one finger.

    It’s funny after I have been riding the Husky a bit, when I get on the RMX I find myself overshooting corners till I readjust.

    Not sure if the LCD screen is in the deal Scotty bellow is whats in the box they say

    What’s in the box

    AEE MagiCam Action Sports Camera (SD21)
    Wireless Remote Control
    Waterproof case
    External battery
    Various 3M Adhesive mounts
    USB cable
    AV cable

    You have a GoPro you must know how far advanced they are to everything else at the moment

    TB

    The description seems to imply it comes with the screen and a spare battery.

    “The camera comes with curved and flat surface adhesive mounts, three-way pivot arm as well as assorted mounting hardware. It also includes an LCD screen attachment and extra battery to ensure that you do not miss that special moment.”

    Yeah TB the gopro is a good thing but for those just looking to upload some fun footage to YouTube/Facebook and the like most of these cheap cameras will do just fine.

    Another options out there. The market is getting flooded with actions cams which is good for us consumers.

    I found a vid with a comparison with the GP2 and GP3 silver which have similar specs. To me the GP’s look a bit sharper and have more natural colours. I am sceptical of some of these comparison vids on youtube as it is all to easy to manipulate the footage to your own means but I’ll let those that view decide.

    The AEE Magicam still look pretty good. $150 with a LCD back pac makes it a bargain.

    Congratulations Teza. Sweet ride I would like one of these in the shed myself but 3 bikes would be pushing things.

    in reply to: Does your gopro “freeze”? #236078

    My hero 3 black freezes. Need to take the battery out to unfreeze it. Mine came with a warning inside the seeled box to update firmware before use which I did. My wifi stopped working after a couple of weeks
    and go pros answer to fix it was to reload the firmware. This fix the wifi but still freezes. According to Gopro Facebook page they are saying the have fix all known bugs with this latest firmware update but there still seems to be lots of people complaining about the freeze issue including me.

    For the most part it doesn’t bother me I just pull the battery and replace it and alls good but last week I was down the coast snorkelling when it froze. Not about to pull it out of it waterproof case when floating around the ocean.

    Guess I will wait for the next update to fix the bug they say they have already fix.

    in reply to: Seat cover which staple gun? #208228

    I brought this little beast from a local tool store for a tad under $50 to do to seat on my husky.

    It’s so strong I had to turn the reg on my compressor down as it would shoot staples straight through the seat pan. Bonus the misses brought some new ikea bedroom furniture for the girl recently. This made putting on draw bottoms and cupboard backs easy work.

    PS. Any exuse will do to buy a new tool.

    He makes it look so easy. Just lean back and let your back wheel hit the wall he recons. I would go face first into the base of that wall. :laugh: :laugh: :pinch:

    Only one thing that could make your coment worse is if you are sitting there with a large glass of turkey and cola with loads of ice
    Cheers

    Turkey would make it perfect Murf but I have to go and pick up kids soon so it will have to wait.

    About 35 outside at the moment and I believe a chance of a storm later this arvo.
