His fat arse could be accommodated by fitting shocks of the early hr Holden models but when you put them on a Tenere they only work properly if you also fit a sticker to show you have done the modification. Fitting the sticker without doing the shock replacement apparently works nearly as well.
No Boony your confused. The 250 is purchased by Tenere riders to carry as an optional spare unless of course they go with an after market spare such as an XR650. Mick was lucky he already had one, now he just needs to fit a spare carrier onto his Tenere and he’s right to do long trips.
So mick as I’m not a latte sipper you will have to explain how you managed to ride a bog standard Tenere. After reading TBs thread TB’s New XTZ660 Tenere #4 09 May 2014 20:26 #164224, I figured they must be a crock when you have to do that much after market work to them to make them rideable. Worse still all the bits he replaced with after market stuff he put into your bike. The only obvious solution is that you must be an incredibly skilled rider to be able to do what you managed, suppose that’s obvious when you were drinking beer instead of lattes.
We will pay if you take him,
We ride with you it can’t get any weirder than that
Your fat and your ugly and that’s your good points!
Had an issue with the bottom tensioning knob on the rt brace, spoke to Scott at Suttos and he organised for manufacturers to repair. I sent it down to him and he fixed the issue himself and sent them straight back. Awesome after sales service thanks Scott.
And great cooks

There goes another part of growing up
Didn’t say I was competent
Quote from eagle
It pays to be in the know and be talking to the “RIGHT” people for sure.
Something that I have usually avoided, sucking up to certain people rather than getting noticed on merit and competency alone. The incompetent suckholes & Yes Men usually end up at the top (I have seen far too many examples of it the past 10 yrs) :angry:Hey eags , I object to being called a suckhole!
Obviously every field is different, I have about 40 staff of all ages and even the worst ones are still of bloody good quality. It’s even a competition between the youngest ones to get more skills and post grad qualifications than everyone else. I wouldn’t swap any of them.
What about the old highway run ?
What an unreal weekend!
Friday
0700 depart Tamvegas
0800 bacon egg roll and beer at Walcha
0900 gero left in shitter while we head to camp
0930 the rest of us piss ourselves laughing at germs expense while Matt heads back to find him trudging along the trail with the laughter of an RTA crew who have worked out what’s happened ringing in his ears
1000 gero tries to kill us all
1030 Polly arrives complaining his camp is not set up properly and the hookers are missing
1100 11 riders saddle up to start the ride with a run up kokoda our favourite track right out of camp
1130:10. I forget the slippery bank on the way out of camp and bin it
1130:20 riding startsBoony led most of the way as we ran all our favourite trails on our way south to look for Boonys long lost trail. We ran a heap of trails and pocked around looking for likely trail openings but to no avail Didn’t matter though we were having a ball. As we were heading back to camp the long way I spotted a gap between two trees and headed off to see where it went – which was downhill. Worse still was at the bottom of the hill was another trail and worse still the trail matched exactly Boonys description of the trail he had ridden years before. Obviously no one else had found it either but after going back to get the mob we rode its whole length and its a ripper.
We left our new trail behind and headed for the original valley of doom which given the dry weather was more speedway than doom. Nothing like 9 trail bikes on full noise for 8 km of closed off Forrest trail with only a few logs and holes to dodge. The trees were a blur and the smiles wide and eventually gero and sweep mal turned up to join us. Beer was called and we headed back to camp via a quick run down the big hill climb/ descent behind camp.
Everything started to get a little wild from here and between the exploding dunnies, volcano fire pit ouzo and some really nice food the boys were on fire. I could hardly breathe with all the laughing. Oddly though most of us went to bed before midnight and slept really well.
Saturday
It was going to be hard to beat Friday, but when Damus came into camp at 100kph with his bike upside down in the back of the ute we knew we were off to another great day. Once Scott’s joined us we went off with Boony leading us on a 15 km warm up out to the highway before heading back to the start of our epic singles loop. I took the lead and spent the rest of the day trying to keep in front of the mob. It’s a great days ride when you find yourself racing your mates on singles, big up hills and along closed off Forrest trails and even down an overgrown valley of doom4. Sensational days ride with great experiences, even managed to stop the bike from 50 km using only my nose and a jungle vine.
One large hill turned out to have been washed out badly and poor old gero was talking Chinese by the time he got up which was strange because he has never spoken Chinese to me before. We headed back to camp using every single I know and it was a blast, Cells really is trail bike heaven. Saturday night managed to get even wilder than Friday which I would never have thought possible. So many explosions laughter and discussions of midget porn topped off by the video at the start of this thread.Sunday was a day of leisure with a short tourist ride before heading out to gingers creek for a mega burger before heading home.
Just a great weekend which will enter into legend thanks to a great group of blokes.
Man have you changed. The old mick would have been excited over a new trail bike or a single run and a beer but never an adventure bike and a latte. Shame mick shame.
