    This makes interesting reading, I don't even remember how I got here. I intend on doing a bit of touring of the south this year and I am looking forward to reading what you get up to. You have a nice easy writing style for the reader.
    What sort of costs are the backpackers and are they any good? I have not stayed in one, I'm normally in a tent.
    You seem to be quite busy though so no hurry.......... no, really take your time

    Booking codes change constantly and are normally subject to certain terms. An organiser of an event has to apply to the company, then they give them a time limited deal that makes it cheaper for people in that group.

    Otherwise, if you're a member of Top 10, AA, BMW Owners Register or other organisations (most seem to be 10%), they may have access to discounts as well. Interislander seems to have changed their policy this year. Last year it was $152 return for adult and bike on a code (MNZ had one, expired late last year right after this trip), but now it's 10% off... which makes it more like $200.

    Now that's a trip that would benefit from seriously tall gearing. Hundreds of k's at a time riding through straight roads through desert with nothing else in sight.

    Most excellent feedback from all of you.

    I have fitted wavy rotors and can confirm the 'second set' that were fitted were not correct supply parts... turns out the shudder was fork bushes and never was related to the brakes at all! FFS!

    BTW buy your Wavy Disks from Norm at Stormin Bikes (google it) he rox no shit, he really is a guru and worth his weight in GOLD

    Bearings I take ownership...I like seeing the sky from time to time.

    Starter...high compression twin - par for the course I have decided

    Owning a Ducati - MY FAULT and time to shut the fuck up, take a concrete pill and find a GOOD but CHEAP mechanic to keep around....
