Do you have a bike sitting round waiting to be fixed?

Are you the one who's going to fix it?

Do you have a sense of humour?

in a humourous manner

(an excuse for meeting up, learning and drinking)



With the hostess with the mostness



S to the Stream




I won't be doing it all at once

so if anyone is travelling at the same time as me

Anyone in Palmy doing anything to their bike(s) at this time?

Or heading to Palmy at this time?

But anyone who wants to convoy

PEACE OUT!!

[Joni]

When will you be here Lena?
:spudwhat:

[Two Smoker]

May most likely. 14th, My Gran is having her 89th birthday up there. She'll be asleep by 10....am :D

Hopefully my forks will be here from the USA so you can film me fixing the worst bike hehehe... anywhere there is KK and a box of beers and fixing bikes there is goign to be humour...

[Waylander]

I understand there will be cardboard farings aswell :whistle:
Well he has to do something with the empty beer boxes doesn't he?

[Motu]

Send me a PM a couple of hours before you turn up - I'll break something and you can watch me figure out what the hell I'm going to do about it....

[Jackrat]

I'll get my mate Rangi to drop round,you can explain your heading to him while I video the out come.
Should be fun,,,,for us <_<

[riffer]

Sorry Lena you can't watch me fix my bike as I signed off the release papers today.

However I'm hoping to buy a bike that doesn't need too much fixing...

Hey, when are you coming around to meet Nicholas?

[bugjuice]

I'm trying to buy a ZX6 in a box at the moment. Will be rebuilding that in a weekend.. Don't know when yet..

[crashe]

Dang, I have just finished getting my baby all fixed....

BUT....

You can film me spending 5 hours washing, polishing and chrome cleaning her... with the toothbrush and cloths.
:cool: :cool: :cool:

That's a fast cleanin job there crashe, takes me about 7 hours to do mine completly, wax and everything.

[crashe]

:shit: please tell me you don't use your toothbrush :confused:

UMMMMMM NO.
:cool: :cool:

Good ol' $2 shop ones... pack of 5 for 2 bucks.....

You aint got spokes either.... so it shouldnt take you 7 hours...
what the heck are you doing....lol.... or shouldnt I ask....lol.

[Waylander]

Shouls probably say that the 7 hours was when I just bought it after my dad had not cleaned it since he bought it new. I've only had it for about a year and a half by the way.

THERE ARE STILL LOTS OF GSXR1000 K4 RUNOUT GOING CHEAP AROUND HAM AND AUCK. 18K ON THE ROAD AND FREE YOSHI MUFF.

[Kwaka-Kid]

Whoa! Fully has to happen here!

I mean... West Auckland... Numerous garages... Numerous motorcycles (far from working) and above the road so roll starting is all good!

Slight lack of beer (only drink other peoples out west!), Slight lack of Stars, and major lack of hospitibletality skills.

So are we all go! :)

[ajturbo]

when you in TGA???


luke crashed the scooter again.... into a fence, he jumped off.... but forgot the bike has a mind of it's own.... and tried to get away from the punishment he was dealing out to it.... but the fence stopped it from make luke walk after it too far... the fence bit a peice of the front mud guard off.....

we could drink and watch him clean it:drinknsin :2thumbsup :Punk:

[scumdog]

Could watch me try and put the XN85 back together, it will take LOTS of beer 'cos I can't find some bits and the other ones are made of unobtainium :drinknsin :apint:

[Motu]

Would that be the Two Towers in Palmerston, New York or in my bathroom? :whistle:

You pass them on your way to Auckland - the all seeing eye sees all....make sure you aren't wearing a ring,it will reveal your innermost secrets to me.... :shifty:

[scumdog]

I have never been to Otago...good red wine down there :niceone: I've always wanted to go :D

You're on...It'll be awile tho :( Maybe in august sme time.

It will take me that long just to FIND the XN - and get enough red wine :niceone:

[ajturbo]

Hopefully around may...or maybe a tad later :(

shit.. if the bike is still going by then ..it will need a wire brush to remove the dirt..... wich means more time drinking... as it will take him longer to clean!!:banana:

we will have heaps of room anytime... :drinknsin

[wari]

DIShes a good i-dear ... :yeah:

WHy don I gitt any good i-dears .. :confused:

[Skunk]

Are you the one who's going to fix it? :killingme
Yeah, right. You have to know what you're doing for that don't you?

[Dodgyiti]

Making a night 'round at quackies in the deepest west would be cool. Just round the corner from me, I can introduce your video camera to extreme 'Bling', it might need some sort of glare filter though :msn-wink:

ohhh mate... that 'bling' is the 'bling' of all 'bling' in fact it dosent get any more 'bling e er' than that 'bling'..... go the guzz.


SlipStream..... by the time ya get down here, ya might have to get the hair dryer out to defrost the Storm, that would make for good vid coverage wouldent it :2thumbsup

[RiderInBlack]

Wish I could help SS, but I'm not trashing "Rox" for no vid, she's cost me too much to keep on the road already for the next month or 2. At the most I'd have a little plastic welding to do, but there's always a free bed, beer and/or Bourbon if your game enough to get this far North:2thumbsup If I can make to AK when your down/up there I'll meet you there for a beer:drinknsin

I was actually going to buy that, full on for-real saw it on trademe - then I had a 500$ repair bill and need of new front disks that killed my dreams of that ZX6R if anyone buys it here, and never gets around to putting it together please sell it to me... :lol:

nah, this baby will be put together in a weekend tops. Not a lot to it. Does need a new frame tho, this one was snapped (not cracked) by bringing it down from a monster wheelie. He must have been at 12 o'clock and dropped it hard. new frame please....



I'll be in Auck-Vegas around my birthday or 14th may ... if you can wait that long.....
by the time we get round to getting the frame and having everything sorted (and getting all the busy weekends out of the way!), then realistically, might not be too far from then anyways.. Feint is joint in on this with me, so it's 50/50 on all decisions..

what does thou say Feint?

[Eddieb]

So did youget it? I see someone used the buy now.

[bungbung]

some footage of people working on their bikes in a humourous manner

Best bring your video camera to the Upper Hutt GP on May 1st for some hot pit action

[bugjuice]

So did youget it? I see someone used the buy now.
yeah, Feint used the buy now, and we're going halves on it.. Should be a good little mota

[inlinefour]

You going through NP at all slip? I don't have a bike that I'm working on at present, but that could change easily... :msn-wink:

[scumdog]

Looks to me like I'm cancelling this trip ... Bills to pay, party to save up for :banana: ...

But "Rangi My Ride" is stil a go :niceone:

I'll be still in Wellywood on the weekend of the 15th ... anyone with bikes being fixed, cleaned or customised this weekend mentioned?

Also, anyone got a tripod I can borrow?

Yeah, I've got one in the bedroom but I'll have to take the video camera off it first...... :shifty:
