Alright after 10 pages of dribble (which maybe one post is mine :laugh: ) we need to get this ride organised

Information required

This was a ride that was for me to ease back into riding after my shoulder operation and is a grade 2 trail ride / social get together. It may have no single trail I really dont know so if you are looking for that and it doesnt happen dont bother telling me cause you have been warned.

You need to put a jerry can with fuel in it on the trailer attached to Krams car before the 8am start because I dont think we will be going near a service station

Lunch will be provided at a cost, Ollie will fill in the details regarding lunch.

The start location and details are here

Please confirm your attendance on Saturday for Ollie to organise lunch

Hey from experience and owning a couple of XR600’s couple of XR 250’s and and XR650 dont buy cheap clutch plates they dont work fact we have tried it, Chicken still has trouble with his when hot.
I have run Motul 5100 in all my XR’s my old one has done over 45,000kms (its a 600 never touched) and is still going and this one has done 26,000+ kms. If you have yours running on LP Gas put gas oil in it if not why run gas oil?
File the fingers, soak your plates new or old for at least 12hrs before you fit it and check the steel plates like Ollie said.

TB

Ok dont want an argument thats what wives are for :blink: The plates I recommended were EBC which are a good reputable brand also make decent brake pads ive been told As posted in various other threads every one has their own opinion on oil, I to have owned several XR’s (and still do) I found Penrite HPR15 Gas very good and well priced it is recommended by the australian manufacturer as being suitable for motorcycles. I am sure that Motul 5100 is also a good oil. I think that $100 dollars for a complete Quality clutch set delivered is a good price,it just takes that guessing out of the equation especially if you are not sure about the springs and steel plates.

My 2 bobs

Ollie

Ollie calm down your cheap consciences is getting ahead of you mate , sounds good I meant cheap as in cheap mate you see cheap no name kits around was talking about them. That price for and EBC is good and EBC is a good brand and a whole kit is real good.

Gas oil well we agree to disagree here my friend if that’s OK I am sure the gas stuff does a good job as you have proven

Ollie I dont want an argument either cause you will be wrong :laugh: :laugh:
