Sidecar Racing

[kiwi cowboy]

Soooo, based on rarity alone they would be considered a step above goats?

Didd'nt say they were rare did I????:facepalm:just said in some places you have a job finding any.:motu:no problems around here.:innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::inno cent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::inno cent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::inno cent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::inno cent::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

But the boys were having a blast out there today.

A couple of quick clips of the high school sidecars in action.

One more day of racing tomorrow, so if you can pull a sicky pop over to manfield and have a look see.

[Kickaha]

Just going to fit up some tyre racks in the van to give us some more floorspace (providing Pig gets his A into G, so probably unlikely) and adding some interior lighting, Sidecar is prepped and ready to go except for putting the catch tray back on, we just have the bodywork to pick up Tuesday from the signwriter and we're good to go :banana:

Apparently so according to the e mail from the organisers yesterday, poor old Russell got a few choice replays from various aggrieved female sidecar competitors.

We're all loaded this morning, Jay's bike & pinky & all the crap that goes with them in the new XLWB Merc & we are at about 45 percent full compared with the Transit at about 80 percent with just pinky. Loaded the GSX at 45 degrees in the front & it takes up just over the first metre. Sweet as!

[Kickaha]

Must be due again then

WTF are the T shirts for that I'm supposedly selling for an hour a day?

So I have to drive 14 h 42 min and 1,004 km (google maps) just to sell some T shirts, I could fucking stay home and do that and it would cost me a lot less money

edit: fucked that up it's only 14 h 18 min and 983 km, that makes me feel much better about it

Its not an NZSRA condition. Its from the BSTT committee. Every competitor has to help out this year. These were the jobs required of us. We all have to do our bit. Or we could choose not to enter, and don't race. I choose to enter, and do my bit.....

Others are flag marshalls, co-ordinators etc etc....

Yeah, but you won't get gang raped by Gordie and Pate if you did that......

Darren mentioned something about a stuck pig.... and spit roast...

Geezuz... if you drive at 52.5kmph, then maybe you shouldn't be racing afterall..... :lol:

Did you factor in the 3 hr Ferry crossing?

[scrivy]

No, you're right. But as I've always said, there's givers and takers in this world.
Imagine if no one turned up to flag marshall..... that would be a very fucken long way to drive for nothing....:weep:

[scrivy]

Did you factor in the 3 hr Ferry crossing?

Nope, just the changes in distance/time:
14 h 42 min and 1,004 km
14 h 18 min and 983 km

24 mins/21 kms.....

[sidecar bob]

They really wouldn't have a shit show of enforcing that

Yes they would, there is talk that if a team doesn't assist they will not receive any points.
Of course that may not affect you though.
It doesn't have to be the actual competitor, it could be a hitch hiker you picked up, as long as your team organised that person.

[sidecar bob]

It took us 17 hours from your place to ours & the only place the van was switched off was on the ferry.

MNZ permitted meeting so I don't think they get that choice, I can't find the bit in the rulebook which says "If you don't man the gate or the BBQ or the T shirt stand you wont get points" I'd be picking less than 30% of competitors will do anything

Of course that may not affect you though. You're a funny cunt, here have one of these :motu:

It doesn't have to be the actual competitor, it could be a hitch hiker you picked up, as long as your team organised that person.
We dont have spare people with us so if comes down to doing the race or work needs to be done on the bike we wont be able to do it or at least not at the allocated time

We wudda looked like gay chums, nobody wants that.
Speak for yourself :heart:

heres the deal, do it or don't do it I couldn't give a shit, but don't fucken whinge when you find out this is the last bsttc held here because now we have to pay people to man the gate and cook the BBQ.

Id be more worried about Alan hanging out with the sausages.

Good point, I think I'll eat at the Motel

[sidecar bob]

Geez Warwick, I'm a bit surprised you think these things run themselves & are getting all rule booky about it. Have a think about it on your drive up & hopefully you will work out that all meetings that you Benefit from have a huge volunteer input. Maybe this is your chance to do an hours work to give a wee bit back.
It was run the same way last year, only Adam chose to refuse & everyone else did their bit.
It's not just sidecars, it's all classes that are helping out. As it is I suspect this will be the last bazza as a bunch of kiwis decided not to support the Aussie one earlier this year, preferring instead to run their national championship, it seems the Aussies picked up on the lack of support from our end & have returned the favour at this event with about one third entering this year compared to last year.
If you would rather stay home than do an hours work for the benefit of all, that is an option you should explore.
Here's a deal, I'm manning the barbecue, if you don't do your bit, don't ask me for a sausage.
Christ man, ask my mother in law to do your shift if you can't do it, just get off your arse & make something happen.

[Kickaha]

Geez Warwick, I'm a bit surprised you think these things run themselves & are getting all rule booky about it.
Not that fussed about the rulebook either way, not as though I expect to be up the pointy end and be worrying about points

Have a think about it on your drive up & hopefully you will work out that all meetings that you Benefit from have a huge volunteer input. Maybe this is your chance to do an hours work to give a wee bit back. We'll be doing our hours work like we've been asked and if it conflicts with our racing maybe we can slot into something else, looking forward to hearing Goobers reaction to it though, I think that will be comedy gold

It's not just sidecars, it's all classes that are helping out.

I realise it can't always be helped but he scheduling of the Oz meeting is shit if you want to run Nationals, I'd love to go and do it but we wont ever consider it if it means not supporting meeetings here

Here's a deal, I'm manning the barbecue, if you don't do your bit, don't ask me for a sausage.
Fuck all chance of me asking you for a sausage I'd be too scared of what I'd end up with and whether it's have Scurvys "special sauce" on it

[Grumph]

Reading the comments here about this is quite interesting from the SI...If the BSTT isn't financial enough to pay people to man the gate or cook the BBQ there's definitely something very wrong there. Go to the Burt to see how it can and should be done.

Oh and points for what ? I'd hope not the NZ national sidecar title...

Theres about 936 marshalls that need to be payed for.

plus Robert Cockrane.

its all about giving back and helping run an event that is in reality quite bloody cheap to enter.

the points are what you get for placing in a race, its how they determine who to give the best in show rosette to.

[Kickaha]

Are you sure you counted that right? I think you might have missed a few

[nodrog]

Are you sure you counted that right? I think you might have missed a few

You would think I'm exaggerating aye, but when they heard that you and your mates were coming up, MNZ stipulated 47 marshalls on each flag point, just incase they need to tip you fat cunts back on your wheels.

Motorbike racing is fast going out of fashion as a spectator sport. I had an ex WSBK winner at my dining room table a few weeks back, he rode in front of 350,000 plus spectators back in the day, these days we are lucky to have little more than our personal groupies watching, that's if we have any. That's where the money has gone.

[Drew]

It's an hour of our time, to repay everyone else's time given.

Bloody good idea I think.

[Grumph]

what does the burt pay for track hire over the events?

leading question there....yes, I'd say much, much less than HD charges. But on the other hand they have to attract spectators from much further away too. When you see how much Venture Southland does to assist promotion of the events of the week you realise that it's done to generate income for the area - and it does.
Oh, and remember that the land Teretonga stands on is owned by the Southland Sports car club...who had the foresight to get in and secure it for the future when they could. Wyndham as a street circuit is costly to set up but the locals realise the benefits to the local economy. I'm told that more than one local township would be keen to step in if Wyndham ever drops out....
Paid marshalls ? Yep, we pay them here too. Petrol vouchers, lunches, often more. If HD management (track not club) have a pool of paid marshalls, do they insist on the club using them ?

Bob - yep, spectators are hard to attract these days, maybe harder in Auckland than elsewhere....what does that tell you about the location of the meeting ?

[nodrog]

It's an hour of our time, ......

its 2 hours bro, I thought you were the smart one.

[Billy]

As it is I suspect this will be the last bazza as a bunch of kiwis decided not to support the Aussie one earlier this year, preferring instead to run their national championship,

If I can just clarify that for you, It was the board at MNZ who refused to allow the sidecars to run part of their championship with the Suzuki series, Ensuring there were full grids for all rounds, Whilst allowing them to participate in Australia, How or why they thought that was better is beyond me, Their logic was just mindless and ruined a class at National level.

[scrivy]

Seriously guys, we can bitch and complain for ever and a day about this.
Truth is, the way it stands, clubs are loosing money. Period.
Or would you like to pay a minimum of $500 a meeting entry fee so clubs can break even??

Do we want to continue racing at any events/venues in the future?? I know what my answer is. So I'll help the clubs that require our input to run the meetings.

Scrivy

[Drew]

its 2 hours bro, I thought you were the smart one.

It is? Didn't see that on my email. Wouldn't have paid my entry fee if I'd known!

Stop thinking I'm the smart one. People will start getting offended.

[Kickaha]

If he is I'd fucking hate to see the dumb ones

How or why they thought that was better is beyond me, Their logic was just mindless and ruined a class at National level.
It was only better for those in the North or who were going to Oz which is really what it was all about because it's a fucking shit time to travel and get time off from down here

Truth is, the way it stands, clubs are loosing money.
Some clubs might be losing money

It is? Didn't see that on my email. Wouldn't have paid my entry fee if I'd known!
Couple of hours over the weekend isn't much, but like I said if it fits with our racing we'll do it, if it doesn't we won't

Stop thinking I'm the smart one.
It's ok, I don't

[husaberg]

When's a shit time to travel and get time off work? The info I was provided with suggested that had the format put forward to the board been followed, Numbers would have been greatly increased for both the Suzuki series AND relevant NZSBK rounds, Win,win from where I sat, May have lost some from some areas but that would have been more than compensated for overall, Can't see how it was better for the clubs to be forced to run races for a reduced grid, Or the profile of the class, Pretty pathetic to watch 7 or 8 rigs on track at Taupo.

[Drew]

Unlikely to be Mensa.........

Whomever it is, that the context refers to. Even at an IHC event, I wasn't the smart one.

With the current resurgence of numbers in our class, things will improve.

I'll be looking to bring a better chair back from over here in Australia next year too. So our surprisingly competitive chair will be looking for riders. Harris might stop asking dumb money for Pig and Goober's old chair too.

Things are looking up, and the 'pathetic' show we put on this year can be viewed in context hopefully.

December for most people working in retail

Numbers greatly increased? only because the NI Suzuki series which got good numbers last year all of a sudden gets called the "Nationals", not that sure it'd make any difference to the numbers that come south

Not that it'd really make that much difference but we'd be unlikely to make that trip for one day meetings but Alex probably would as I think he is going to this year

With the current resurgence of numbers in our class, things will improve.
I'm not sure it's a resurgence as such as numbers seem to go up and down over a 5-6 year cycle but here's hoping:yes:

I'll be looking to bring a better chair back from over here in Australia next year too.
Don't be in too much of a hurry to buy there as quite often I've seen stuff that could in from the UK cheaper

Harris might stop asking dumb money for Pig and Goober's old chair too.
He's got someone making him offers a bit more where we feel it should be priced but so far has turned them down, if it sells I'm hoping for eight at a club day

[Drew]

I can't go see one in the UK. I will be wanting a banging fucken deal on a chair, or go over every inch of it.

[Kornholio]

Well I am good to go for Barry Sheene, See ya's there :girlfight:

[sidecar bob]

Possibly some of you guys should be afforded an explanation on how the bazza is structured financially.
The event is run by three clubs, NZPCRA, NZSRA & CMCRR. These three clubs fund the event & if the event makes money the profit is split three ways. If the event loses money, the shortfall is split three ways, which means that by this time next week the NZSRA could be flat broke, (last year It broke virtually exactly even)
Your club, if you are a member of the NZSRA is involved in running the event, therefore you are responsible to help out, even if you are only ever used to being on the take while all the usual suspects pitch in & make it all magically happen for you.
If this is all too much to bear you should seriously consider wether you want to be a member or not.
In short, do your bit or fuck off.

[Drew]

I can't wait for next weekend. I'll be sober to cook the barbeque in all, since I gotta drive the family back to south Auckland after.

[Kickaha]

[Fast Eddie]

Bypassing the fuel relay? Which relay? The electrical power supply one or the fuel pressure regulator?

The quick disconnect under the tank? That was added after the issues were found, It's a dual shut-off style out of a Triumph 1050i so shouldn't have caused an issue

Ditched that quick release at the tank - the valve inside it which closes when you disconnect, was opening and closing with the coupling connected and was allowing a mere 200ml of fuel flow per minute at best and at times the valve would close and allow no flow.. no need for it anyway, same with the fuel filter fitted, it would allow about 400mls fuel flow through it at best - ditched that, replaced all the fuel lines too.. with new set up - free flow is 2.5 litres per minute... freeee willy!

The fuel pump relay - to answer which relay question. It was turning the pump on an off... not because of the tip over switch tho, think it was just the relay had problems energizing/staying energized or something, call it fucked and then finally it gave up all together. Ditch that little sucker and run a direct power feed now with switch and fuse. Although I will buy another relay just in case I want to use it one day, one on ebay I shall bid on.

And finally, the fuel pump itself gave up - probably because it was trying to suck the fuel from the restricted fuel line, or because it was getting a shit power supply or whatever thats my guess anyway. So new pump fitted too..

Think thats all it was in the end, had the fuel tank out and looked it over with my boss at work - its design is fine, the return line position is fine, breather is fine and the outlet is actually quite good, it has a little sump to avoid any starvation/fuel supply loss during cornering g force.

As far as the rest of the bike goes its mint, bit uncomfortable so will fine tune the seat a bit, gear shifts are a bit tough for my weak chicken legs.. not sure if there is much I can do about it.. handles nicely though - I have really enjoyed riding it the last couple of sessions now that it runs good, makes great power, gets off the line and out of corners quickly. Just need to spend the time on the track with Ella so she can build up the skill and confidence - at the moment we are going 2 minute laps at Puna in the dry and... well.. I'm still being asked to slow down. So a bit of team building and work needed there :D but all in good fun.. I'm enjoying the seat time

Got a shit load of work to do now though, polish frame, fix the fairings which got all fucked up after Wazza decided to reverse into me at the hairpin, paint it, new battery, stripping the loom further, have got rid of most of the extra shit like the lights and instrument panel and stuff - will remove everything that isnt in use and will probably cut and add or remove length of wires to route it nicely. I have drawn some nice schematics and have unpinned all the wiring not cut anything.. so theoretically it could all be put back together.. but I plan to change the length of some of the wires so it sits better in the sidecar so probably a waste of time but meh.. better this way incase something happened and the bike doesnt run you can just put the wires back in the harness plugs.

Trying to get the trailer covered in as well for the long mish up north. And get the old tow car ready for its 1,000's of kms driving to get to Wangas and back and tour around the North Island a bit while we're up there.



So has the Agip bike gotten its steering problems sorted?

Yea man, a while a go I posted pics and stuff, I stripped it right down, replaced all bearings and bushes and tie rods, rebuilt all brake calipers and pistons, cleaned everying, brake lines etc and pulled the brake bias system apart to find it had fallen apart internally anyway.
After all that, and with the brake bias dialled in, she handles the same as before - its possible the broken brake bias setup was causing the steering issues (it fishtailed or swerved under braking)


That would be the tip over switch, factory fitting in the two wheeler that stops the pump should it end upside down. It ought to be glued /siliconed up inside (as in a sidecar the forces acting upon it are different).

Yea, someone had already done that? If it wasn't you guys then it must have been Speedway Grant down here when he first put the motor in..


I think Ella needs a tip over switch

I think she was one, everytime I flip her over she gets turned off...


If you're building a tube frame and worried about cracking, set it up with the appropriate valve etc to hold air pressure in the tubing. Makes cracks easy to find too.
Thats an awesome Idea.. if only it could be done in retro to the windle.. too much hassle for me.

[Fast Eddie]

Oh yea, Agip bike is being run down here by my old swinger Phil and his new swinger Stephen.. they look to be having a blast on it and are currently in negotiations with their respective wives about purchasing the outfit off me..

Hopefully they get that sorted before Nationals or something as then I would have the money to run Nats - if not then never mind, they are helping us out making up numbers at club days anyway

[Kickaha]

fix the fairings which got all fucked up after Wazza decided to reverse into me at the hairpin.
Pity the camera wasn't on for that one

Yea, everyones been a bit useless with the camera down here. I'm going to make a provision for the camera in the fairing now while I have the fibreglass and resins going

He sits a jack under the kneeler to get the rear wheel up, a block of wood under the chair frame to get the chair wheel off and the front just uses the jack under the front of the frame.

It's easy to get under the chair, apart from the wheel tracks, there's only a couple of braces across the frame. Easy oil changes.

[Drew]

That rig of yours is a fucken rocket! I give Alan 6.5/10 for his rolly polly effort! Too bad you two didnt rejoin the race....It never occurred to either of us for him to jump back on. But, it's prolly for the best. If a solo rider comes off his bike, it's clear in the rules that they mustn't rejoin after all.

There was no damage to Al, but his helmet is scraped and clearly compromised. A big crash after that wee off, and who knows what that might have spelled.

We're in agreement that him coming off, is race retirement every time.

It's my worst corner on the track, given our lap times were very similar it's probably in your best interest that I don't get it right :msn-wink:

I think if you'd pulled it off you would have been slightly ahead of him but there would have been bugger all in it

The short straight before the dipper he made ground on us, but we can't get full throttle before I hook third gear for fear of the bike going straight off the left hand side of the track. I think his and our bikes are pretty even in speed.

We'll see what those lap times look like with transponders fitted bro. Think we went faster than ever in the last race, but what it feels like and what the stopwatch says are rarely the same.

I can, if you look at the 1.40 mark you will see a certain old chap do a u turn on his outfit & park it back where it was for some reason, directly after it had spent some time upside down. He either rode it exactly where a mysterious oil trail had already been, or dropped it himself.
Fucking annoying when people are completely oblivious to the obvious.

Clearly not. He seemed far more interested in getting back to racing than anything else to be perfectly frank.
The oil trail went right back up pit lane to his pit.
Maybe there needs to be a compulsory trailer ride after a bike or sidecar Go down. That was just stupid.

Cheryl and I went up to Waikato Hospital last night to see how Dave Dibben was getting on. He has to have a hip replacement op as he had broken his hip socket and the op had been deferred a couple of times due to work load, but was rescheduled for 7am this morning. Other than that he seems in high spirits although he was a bit pissed off about missing out on the trip to the Burt Munroe and Cams meetings in the South Island.
Mick Alton had picked up Steve Bonney's wife Michele at the airport and bought her down to Waikato and we caught up with them last night also. Steve is still in the High Dependency Ward and Michele will be staying with us for a while so she can visit him each day. At this stage I haven't got more details but it's likely to be a long recovery for him.

At the bazza at Eastern Creek earlier this year a couple of wheat farmers with an f2 from out west had a 8500km return trip.
They had a fairly new XR6 ute & carried heaps of gas cans so they could get through all the outback places without having to pay NZ prices for their petrol.
95kmh was the chosen speed for best fuel economy & the daily rest stop was half an hour before sunrise until half an hour after sunrise, otherwise they were almost guaranteed to nail a 'roo crossing the road.
They didn't have to catch an expensive boat ride in a substandard ferry however.

Here's some of the action from the weekend. I'd say none of this will be used to any degree in the documentary, but I think it makes for OK viewing. Apologies if this has already been posted somewhere on here.

Did you get any footage of real sidecars?

[sidecar bob]

Did you get any footage of real sidecars?

I saw scrivy & I in the background there for a second.

[Drew]

Did you get any footage of real sidecars?At two minutes six seconds, only good part of the clip.

[TT Kiwis]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

[Drew]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

Just taking the piss man. Don't take it serious like.

[merv]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

You didn't take them seriously did you? Snap with Drew by the time I posted lol.

[Kickaha]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

Don't be a dick

It was pretty good but could do with being longer, are you doing anymore?

[nodrog]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

Do you want a cuddle?

[Kickaha]

Do you want a cuddle?

If he is clever he will say no

[scrivy]

Thanks guys. I won't trouble you again, sorry the clip was not to your liking.

Cliff

Cliff, fuck what the others said, I could watch that all day!!

Well done. I think every chair needs a Gopro on them, and footage made like what you did.
Top effort!!

[Shaun Harris]

Cliff, 99% of the side car field are Wankers anyway dude, Never take them seriously!

[nodrog]

If he is clever he will say no

I was going to ask if he wanted a root, but being that he only seems to like modern long bikes, I was concerned he might say yes.

[Drew]

We've got three of the things. Occurred half way through the last race that there might have been some good footage if we'd put them on.

[scrivy]

Yeah, it would have shown a slow pink 600 in front of you until the very last 3 seconds...... :weep::weep:

[old rig]

Do you want a cuddle?

just make sure if he gives you a cuddle that he has pants on

[jellywrestler]

Don't be a dick

It was pretty good but could do with being longer, are you doing anymore?

I thought the length was about bang on, it may be that the dyed in the wool enthusiasts want a half hour clip but that was enough for a good taste, lot of editing there and it was out within a day or two of it happening. thanks TT kiwi

[old rig]

fuck you cock

[TT Kiwis]

Do you want a cuddle?

I was just trying to be polite.

Thanks,

Cliff

[Drew]

Yeah, it would have shown a slow pink 600 in front of you until the very last 3 seconds...... :weep::weep:Would have shown a cool first two laps, then one getting past a red F2, and the final lap being held up by a pink bike.

[nodrog]

I was just trying to be polite.

Thanks,

Cliff

I think you are lost.

[Kickaha]

I was just trying to be polite.
Politeness would be wasted on us

[Drew]

Politeness would be wasted on usI dunno, Joanne is oh so politely trying to hint that you might beat us since you're only new to the outfit. I didn't have the heart to tell her I'd just shunt you off track if it looked like ever happening.

[TT Kiwis]

I was going to ask if he wanted a root, but being that he only seems to like modern long bikes, I was concerned he might say yes.

Farout man, I don't even think we've met have we?

This is just a bit beyond 'humour' for me.

All I did was post one clip on this forum in the hopes that someone in this sidecar thread might find it interesting, and I get nasty comments like this?

The clip was awesome, and I certainly hope we haven't put you off chair racers as a group.

If ya browse through any section of the thread, you might understand better.

[Kickaha]

Think yourself fucking lucky then, we've all met him and most of us regret it

Well Cliff, Myself and the many people that I have shown this to thought it was shit hot. Thanks for spending the time to put stuff like this together and I hope we get to see more of your work in the future.

Get on the bloody sidecar then, and you can see it all up close and personal like.

Harris is still selling one you might be comfy on.

Ha ha good call. Might see me back out there once Goob eases up on the weight limit restrictions

[Drew]

Just get a short chair again. That long chair gayness might be catching!

[nodrog]

Roffle!

Who trucked in the vagina sand?

It was a good video Clifford, I can see why you like the long bikes.

Chillax homie, its far too early for a heart attack.

[Pigster]

Just get a short chair again. That long chair gayness might be catching!

Would love to. Noticed that when we were away Kick and Goober spent a lot of time hanging around together outside the public shithouse in Pokeno. Both have long bikes!!!

The warning signs are all pointing one way big fella. Give you a thousand bucks if ya buy the Agip and beat one of them poofs.

It wouldn't get off the line without burning out the clutch with that fat cunt riding it

[Drew]

Maybe he just launch like you. Drop the clutch like it's burning your hand, and light up the back wheel like a spaz?

[Kickaha]

Maybe he just launch like you. Drop the clutch like it's burning your hand, and light up the back wheel like a spaz?

I only do that about 2 out of 5, 1 out of 5 I launch ok and the other 2 out of 5 bog down and have to have a second go at it

[Pigster]

I only do that about 2 out of 5, 1 out of 5 I launch ok and the other 2 out of 5 bog down and have to have a second go at it

That sounds about right. goober mentioned that you we having difficulties in the bedroom with him.

[Drew]

I only do that about 2 out of 5, 1 out of 5 I launch ok and the other 2 out of 5 bog down and have to have a second go at itDo you run a short lever?

Sounds like it's hard to modulate if you're still having that much trouble.

With the new suspension set up on the back of our chair, I'm gonna need to change my approach to the task. Might have to get a longer lever in order to appropriately abuse the clutch more. Wish I had a rev counter.

The oil trail went right back up pit lane to his pit.
Maybe there needs to be a compulsory trailer ride after a bike or sidecar Go down. That was just stupid.

Yip,

Thats exactly what we tried for NZSBK2013, But apparently we were wrong and it was not required AND the stewards refused to enforce it anyways.Thats where the Engine protection/Enclosed bellypan rules came from, But once again the board have intervened and cocked them up, Go figure !!!

Steve Bonney has made good progress after his unfortunate accident at Hampton Downs at the Barry Sheene meeting and has now been moved from the High Dependency Ward into Ward 16 at Waikato Hospital and is now able to receive visitors. He has been up and walking albeit very slowly and has done a couple of laps around the ward and fingers crossed he may be able to fly home to Australia latter this week or next weekend.

[swarfie]

Steve and Michele Bonney fly home today at 6.30pm accompanied by a nurse to look after him on the flight. He has been walking, initially with a wheeley frame and now with crutches. It's still going to be slow but he is expected to make a good recovery, albeit with a few fused ribs etc.
A much better than initially expected outcome. Good luck mate and hope to see you back on a sidecar soon.

Well he's not actually going home just yet....just back to Horsetrailer. Will be spending some more 'lying on his arse time' in hospital over there before he gets to go to his house. Went up to see him at lunchtime to say goodbye and wish him good luck etc and he's pretty positive about getting back on a sidecar sometime in the future :woohoo:

I've heard "duck oil" which i've seen advertised but never seen here in NZ which would seem to be a water repellent used after the polish - and no Scrivy, I don't know if that's like Goat Oil...
Gun shops may have something similar to duck oil.

Money saving tip for those towing trailers.
Go & get brand new number plates for your trailer so it is registered as a 2014 model. You will be on a three year wof initially & then going back to a one year, never to be 6 month wof again, it soon pays for itself.
It wont however help you when you shit a wheel bearing an hour out from Manfield at 11pm on a Friday night.
So if you do it, keep an eye on stuff yourself.

[trustme]

Marketing Chemicals www.mchem.co.nz in AK make a product called Metalbrite. Transport operators like Bonneys who run tankers use it to keep their gear clean . It is a mild acid so you cant leave it on for long , & make sure you get it all off with a hose.
Don't know if that helps.
