    Think we’re going to have to bite the bullet & have more of a go at doing this stuff ourselves.
    :blink:

    Cheers,

    Both these jobs are not overly difficult, there is plenty of Bulls willing to help and show you how you just gotta sing out ;)

    You really need to be able to change a tube yourself in the bush, its more getting the technique down pat then you are sweet.

    I am sure at some stage a working bee / how to day with the bikes could be organized somewhere along the line if there was enough interest.

    Few beers, set of levers, electrical tape …….. all good :laugh:

    You can usually drive them out with a small hammer and a centre punch Dickie.

    How was that thing still running ??? :whistle:

    Hey –h–,

    I was contemplating another run tomorrow morning but I dont think it is necessary now.
    I’ am pretty sure its ready to go B)
    Those Giant Loop handguards kept the wind completely off my hands, I ended up changing from my “cold/wet weather” fox gloves to my normal ones cause my hands were sweating even on the freeway
    I got them from Adventure moto, they sent them the same day, I had them at 9 the next morning :)

    in reply to: Rejuvenating the Royal Steed #245970

    Well I must say….. I am impressed!!
    The royal donkey was most pleasant to ride, better than I thought it was going to be.
    All the gear seemed to ok together [still feels like michelin man :dry: ] but after a bit of a play it was manageable.
    Now that it has had a reasonable run Ill go back over it and check foe loose bolts then its ready for next weekend B)
    Bring it on!!

    in reply to: Hand Held Bush Saws who uses what? #247723

    Cool I’ll have a look and report back.
    For now there seems to be something making whinney noises in the garage :laugh: :laugh:
    a spot of lunch and I will check it out :whistle:
