    Hey Al I run these RK chains have done for years now. They last and are well priced, I get around 18k out of one with 3 front sprockets. I never lube them and as I said get miles and hrs out of them on the XR, 530 and the Tenere

    Cheers King great day for it eh, if I wasn’t building a new bike I would be doing the same. Better get back to it, as I need it to be at Tekniks in the morning ;)

    Once it cools down and the fires stop burning in our ride area Spud and I are talking about a 2 day far north coast ride. We could offer 2 days great riding but it would need to be the cooler months like May or they’ll be some cooked bulls !! It was 37 at my place today and I nearly cooked the goose walking to the beer fridge :D

    Nick

    That’s may soughted. Any other offer’s

    Would be good to keep May free for the obt birthday ride weekend so we can have a get together and raise the money for another year. If we don’t we won’t be here :unsure:

    I have asked if people will help and put the two days riding on in May for the birthday weekend and I will take care of the rest but to date I haven’t had anyone able or willing to help

    Just food for thought guys

    For the first time Nick makes sense Spud (yeah shocked me as well :laugh: ) . Your metal gear is wicked and would sell easy if marketed right, you would pay for one no problem mate while doing something you love. That truck I sold straight away for you remember and there is 5 to 7 months payments on a Beta 498 on its own. (I will organise the sale of that other one, he wants it)

    Do you think the pressure suit back protectors actually do anything other than stop scratches , stabs etc ? Mine wouldn’t stop a serious injury IMO !

    Yeah I do believe it will help hell yes, as you know I only use a pressure suit with a hard chest protector after I saw a guy with a stick in his chest in the Watagans. I also have a stand alone Dainese Paraschiena Wave back protector that I used when I tried just using my jacket with the built in armor. Its a awesome protector and the EVS one looks almost as good. I shopped around for a pressure suit for months because I wanted a good back protector, hard chest protector and kidney belt and while not cheap the EVS covers all those bases for me.

    No good having it unless it will work is there :blink:

    I knew I had a thread on this somewhere.
    I saw that add for TB’s 530 had a “Seat Concepts” seat. Never heard of them so looked them up. Looks like ADV riding seats? I’m still considering a tall seat. Anyone purchased or modified their own seat recently?

    Not my 530 :laugh:

    Concept isnt just adv seats you redneck western hill billy :P :laugh: They do all sorts of seats for everything, they also do high, low and standard heights. I have fitted them to WRs, CRFs to name a few, but they cost money Axel, they are good and comfortable certainly better than that space shuttle heat tile KTM call a seat a very worth while investment.

    Speak with Steve at ADV moto regarding Concept seats mate

    I actually got good mileage out of a S12 rear on both the XR and 530, you just can’t spin it up real god miles actually, Crash always got miles out of them as well on the 650. Spin it up and they last a day. I have some of them under the house still, trashed :pinch:
