Theres a fair bit of history with that big tanked XR, the tank holds 48 litres in two tanks with pumps to pump the fuel up to the carb, Glen Hoffman built it and raced it in the early years around 2001 to 2003 I think, its a 2000 model. It is the same spec engine as mine etc It broke down or he had dramas with it, fuel problems in the safari and it never surfaced again until Ben won the Condo 750 with it in 2005
I have heard rumours regarding purchase price that mate paid for it with spare parts new and 2nd hand, enough to say you could buy a new BMW 1200 GS and have some change but who knows

Wheres Gilli since being the first old bull at Yellow Mountain?

[GregMember]

Hows the hand Mac?

[GregMember]

Heres some gossip, Gilli, Chicken, myself and I think Mac out quailifed both the GHR Hondas of Damien and Ben Grabham, TRUE !

This could have been a plan by the Grabhams but I like to think we just go by the results!

[GregMember]

Go the legend Gilli, nice guy to boot.

Hey TB IM just guessing but if it was Grabbo who won it,No surprise really as he could win it on Posty with bald tyres!:laugh:

Ollie

Yes you are right, but he won it on a HONDA!

[GregMember]

Hey Zippo I looked at Yellow mountain and didnt see a single TM, there was 1,000,000 of those orange shitters, 900,000 blue things, and was won by a Honda with a honda 2nd!

[GregMember]

Yes Mick you are well advised it would seem as though Mac as broken something in his wrist, the old bastard is tough as the day was long though what a champion! Stay tuned for a full report

[GregMember]

Ollie
