Well this arvo I visited Sutto’s and picked up some of my bits and pieces. I got my tyres, front being a Pirelli MT21 which I fitted as I wont be riding it anymore
I used a new Michelin ultra heavy duty tube. I recently threw out a Michelin Ultra heavy duty that I had been running in the rear of my bikes since 2004 been in two XR600’s and my XR650. It had done over 60,000kms true :ohmy: and had massive rubber balls in it :laugh: it had never been patched it was only that a railway spike got it on the Sofala ride
Sutto’s had them on special so it was a no brainer from experience
You can see how thick the tubes are here
I fitted a new Continental TCK80 which is standard fitment on a BMW 1200 and KTM690’s I think. They arent cheap for sure ( I got my Old Bull discount thanks ) The most expensive dirt bike tyre I have ever bought :ohmy: I fitted it this arvo with another heavy duty tube of course
New wheel bearings fitted all around. New chain purchased being a DID 520VM Gold professional or something another 170 bucks retail again thank god for our discount :laugh:
Its sad to say but the bike sits here ready to go even has my overnight emergency cloths and dehydrated meals etc :laugh: :laugh:
Reality is I need to change the oil and filter, clean the air filter, fit rear brake pads and drop the bike to the local Yamaha dealer for some warranty work and its ready as am I
435.5 hrs and we will be sitting at the pub having a beer ready to go in the morning
An excited TB :woohoo:
The phone conference sign on will be 10.45am for those phoning in I will get the number and pin to you shortly.
Gaz we need a speaker phone for Boulders
I will pick you up on the way through mate, saves driving two cars and we can have a counter lunch on the way home and a beer (We will do enough riding saturday)Mal from Sutto’s is coming along on Sunday as well for a look see and will be available should anyone have any last minute accessory questions. Mal has been involoved in the back ground since I came up with the idea last year. (he should be going I asked him first, but thats another story
)TB
No worries Mal I will edit the list before the order comes down from his high and mighty :laugh: :laugh:

I am planning on trialing a set when I run out of tyres from my stock pile :laugh: I am enjoying the grip and miles from the Scorpions and am trialing a IRC rear at the minute. Give a set a go and pass on your thoughts here
