Any KBers in the Geraldine area able to collect a motorsickle for me?

[Crasherfromwayback]

Yo yo. Being the sick cunt I am, I've purchased a pile of shit RV125 from a geezer on TM. But the owner is in Melbourne, and sorting collection out is proving to be a bit of a hassle. Anyone have the time/inclination to collect it for and and look after it until I can sort transport? Obviously happy to pay you for your time etc.

Ta.

[Madness]

In mid to late July I'll be driving an empty van from Gore to Up Norf. If you can find someone to store it until then you may have just sorted free transport to Welly.

Wait a minute! I'm gonna have a VanVan in my... van?

I'll need the really short tie-downs.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Thanks heaps mate. Will call ya tonight after work if that's ok? It was my first bike at the age of ten, and I've always wanted to get another. This one is totally fucked, but mostly all there, so a decent enough starting point for a resto. Had to pay too much for it...but that's the way things are now. I have a KV75 for the GF, so figured I can RV it at the beach with her and leave the big boys at home.

[Crasherfromwayback]

Nah...the 125's are quite a bit bigger physically than the 90's and 75's etc. Way fucking heavier too. Gutless as fuck to boot.

[T.W.R]

Mini-van for the Vanvan :yes:

No worries. I knew where there was a 90 with bugger all kms on it...even had it's handbooks & tools etc

Yeah I'd like a 90 as well at some stage.

I rode one on the road once, holy fuck you need the whole lane, they wander more than an abos dog!

This got it just offered to him when he was at the farm looking to buy an old Farmall tractor, basically a barn find.
The as a kid the neighbour had a 125 he used for work, then one of the daughters used it for school & work and then the son used for school....couldn't kill the poor bugger; it was a soft yellow with a black stripe down the center you'd hear the tires droning on the tar seal before you heard the motor :yes:

Got a couple of acres of bare land that I could fit a decent circuit into :yes: The neighbours might moan a bit but the one on the south boundary is a knuckle dragging mouth breather anyhow so I couldn't give a rats arse about him :lol:

Do it!

I started off with an oval in the side paddock, complete with added dimension of it being on a slope. I had loads of fun on the Mudbug doing that loop as fast as I could with no brakes and shit tyres but got bored eventually so bought a KLX450R. I've got half a dozen acres of hilly paddocks & wetland and now have a couple of MX style loops, a-la Mr Death Inc. The best days ever these days consist of a mini Coro Loop on the ZX12 followed by an hour or so of mud, jumps & skids on the 450.

Used to years ago on the old XR500 when there weren't so many houses in the township but soon as a few places got built the attitude of some changed so ended up doing imitation long track speedway on the trotting track over at the domain :shifty:
Death Inc haven't heard that name for a while

Do eeeet. As a kid, big muddy paddocks and the balloon tyres made me appreciate all things traction. That, and learning on sand, and on the road with same balloon tyres...helped me no end I reckon!

Bill, thanks a Mill for all of your help and efforts so far.

No probs Pete, though I was a bit annoyed having navigate the Clandeboye bend twice within a 1/2hr and not being on my bike :crybaby:
Ha I've already got half the township traumatised with what I get upto on 12 & when I crank the XS up, they really think I've lost it if I started ripping it up with the RV :eek:


oooh. ooooh! first bike I ever rode! First bike I ever fell off 200m in.

It's a nice one :msn-wink: and the wee sod will have just stuck it away in his shed, probably got it leaning up against one of his vintage tractors :rolleyes:

I have a neighbour with ambitions to be you...rented house on around 30 perch section down a back drive in the middle of a quiet rural village...
Comes home from his farm job and pulls out either his biggish motard or the quad...both loud.
Proceeds to lap the section for around an hour or till it gets too dark for safety.

Property owner may get a surprise at the next inspection.

My landlord is sweet with it, possibly due to the condition of the land, possibly due to me being a fecking awesome tenant.

We have an 8-month old Irish Setter pup and a couple of weeks ago we discovered that he has a love for running beside me on the dirt bike. It's without a doubt the best way to wear a high-energy dog out and 15 minutes of him chasing the bike is probably on par with a couple of days of walking. The problem we have now is that all i have to do is start the KLX up and he's going spastic and damn near jumping through windows so he doesn't miss out.

How far north are you going ? Ive got some Busa fairings on TM and im wondering if you have room to possibly deliver them to a buyer up there - a bit of a long shot I know but ive had a guy in Welly and Napier seemingly keen on them. Pay going rate for your troubles of course.

Coming back to North Waikato on the return trip. Not keen on a diversion to Napier TBH and the thought of becoming a Suzuki transporter is making me a little nervous. Might be able to help, more focussed on the coming weeks and the work that needs doing during the trip. Perhaps I could get in touch closer to the time of the trip norf?

Me too mate! Nah. I couldn't ask or expect old Madness to get that one as well. May have to organize a roadie with my ute at some stage to get down to get it. Quite a good score that one I reckon!

[Madness]

So Google tells me I'd need to turn off at Culverden to Kaikoura and back to Culverden again, 3 hour round trip. It looks do-able. See how I feel after 2 weeks down here. So far the people are weird and everything smells funny.

Mate, I wouldn't ask or expect you to want to do that cunting trip. Should you be fucked in the head enough to want to do it, I'd obviously pay you accordingly.

You're right, it's sheer madness. If it's still there in 2 weeks and I don't roll the van on black ice in Otago in the mean time I'll see what I can do.

Okay, I'm in Alexandra and I'm starting to get what you're on about.

The van had a bit of a problem on the Lindis Pass today. The popo had stopped everyone, which meant I stopped, which meant it was hard to get going again. Chains? Whatthefuck?

You cunts ride bikes in this shit?

Anyhoo... I'll be in AlexVegas for a couple more days, then off to Gore. Yay, Gore.

I met a milf on the plane last night, she grew up in Gorrrrrrre. She told me they hold raffles where you buy a ticket to win a wheelbarrow full of piss. Kind of. If your ticket wins, the organiser comes 'round to yours and you drink said piss together. Fucking brilliant I thought.

I'll be doing a day's work in Ashburrrrrrton next week on the way back norf, possibly Tuesday, so expect to see a suave cunt in a black Tranny early next week.
