How was it before I even got 1/2 way through the above pics I said to myself bet Mick will be comparing penis lengths here with the his 600 in the puddle picture and lo and behold here it is

Crash contacted me about sponsoring him, but I think I did him an injustice. I just went to the old bull page and donated, so my $20 belongs to him.
I cant go in this event – my wife cant stand me with a mo and said she will divorce me if i did.(maybe i made the wrong decision
)
No seriously, good luck and go the old bullshatto
No worries Hatto the amount went on mine it and you aren’t the only person to make that mistake it seems hey :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Mate I will be donating the prize if I win it as I am the organiser, not that I think I will

Quote:$854.98 in three days.How about a bit of support for your brother Bulls. Or why not join up to team Old Bulls.
I sent an email around to all of the section that I work for and all of the suppliers that I buy trucks etc from this morning. Hopefully they all dig deep.
GO TEAM OLD BULL TRAILRIDERS

I have just returned from Sutto’s with a Pirelli tyre deal thrashed out with Mal.
Sutto’s are offering
Pirelli Scorpion MX extra rears in 110/120 size for $105.00normally around $130
Pirelli Scorpion MX extra fronts 80/100’s for $89.00 normally around $110
Freight for these tyres is $10 Sydney metro and $15 elsewhere but for any Old Bulls that are on the Central Coast and Newcastle area and am happy to take them and any other stuff from Sutto’s up to the Newy area on Friday the 13th and leave them somewhere that you can pick them up or meet you on one of the F3 turn offs if that suits
These scorpions have been used by Rocket in the A4DE, Crash, Mal 5.1, Moto and myself. I also noticed that Toby Price and Chris Hollis used them also at the A4DE, price finished 2nd at the A4DE and won the AORC using them so they must be ok
They have found to be a good all round tyre that wear very well, I for one have gone back to using them as my general all condition tyre due to their value for money and the fact that they do all things well and nothing really bad in my opinion.

If anyone in or around Wauchope would like to get in on this offer Mick had organised Moose to take the lift stands they ordered (see the Sutto’s scissor lift stand deal) the tyres could be taken up on the truck for free (or maybe buy Moose a beer) (not Mick)
Sutto’s Scissor Lifts
OK we have sold 5 of these stands now, Mick has organised for the Wauchope ones to be picked up and delivered up there for zip. I am taking the Newcastle purchased stands up there
$195 is cheap people get onto Mal

The jets you fitted yesterday I thought sound about 5 sizes to big and I feel that’s why its bogging down. Go back to a 200 and work up in one size up increments (not jump 4 sizes in one go)
I told Mick last night the main was to big and why blame the main, use the chart here and some marks on your throttle to be sure because I would be pointing the finger at the needle height first but go back to the 200 mian you can always go up later
After thinking about it last night the pinging that Mick kept having dramas with would have been ignition based not fuel would have been a CDI advance problem (should have thought of that before)
1. IDLE: Set idle speed to correct r.p.m. by adjusting the IDLE SPEED SCREW. Turn The AIR SCREW to achieve the highest idle speed and best response. After this adjustment has been made adjust the IDLE SPEED again back to the correct r.p.m.
2. OFF IDLE to 1/4 THROTTLE: The SLOW JET and the AIR SCREW are most effective in this range. When you want a richer mixture use a larger SLOW JET or turn the AIR SCREW in. The opposite holds true for a leaner Mixture.
3. 1/4 to 3/4 THROTTLE: The JET NEEDLE is the most effective component in this range. Raising the needle by lowering the clip position at the top of the needle will richen the mixture. Lowering the needle will lean the mixture.
4. WIDE OPEN THROTTLE (W.O.T.): Changing the MAIN JET effects this range. Select the size which offers the best W.O.T. performance, then install one size larger MAIN JET for ideal engine durability.
NOTE: Not all Carbs have AIR SCREWS. Some have FUEL SCREWS, it is important to differentiate as to which one you have. This depends on the location of the screw on the carb. (looking at the center of the carb) If the screw is in between the cylinder and the carb body , it’s a FUEL SCREW, turn it OUT to get more fuel (richer) if the screw is in between the carb body and the air box, it’s an AIR SCREW, turn IN to richen it. As far as I know this rule of thumb is correct. Check with your dealer or manual if at all unsure. Note: most air/fuel screws should be set somewhere between 0.5 to 3.0 turns from seated, if it is outside this range you should look towards your slow jet.
As far as the jets go big is not always better

You look like the dude from American Chopper, Paul Teutel Snr :laugh:
And that’s cheating, you can’t start with a phat mo’, it has to be cultivated over the course of the month to be worthy of fame and glory.
I like to call it an unfair advantage rather then cheating and i havent seen a hard and fast rule on that just more like guide lines
Thats a hell of a starting block Bear :laugh:
