    Well I'm off to the Burt Monro rally on Monday in Invercargill for 12 day trip and about 5,000km.

    I hope the old Kat will do the distance.

    New chain
    oil and filter
    new clutch cable.. throttle is 18months old
    newish tyres.. will be poked on my return
    Forks rebuilt.. thanks Seedy for the info.

    I'm taking about 7kgs of tools So I hope most things will be repairable.

    We will be staying at back backer except at the rally... might meet a good look tourist or 3 from Sweeden.. "Hi Im Heidy from Sweeden". "Hi my names Arron and I'm pissed"

    I will post a trip review with photos on my return.... 3 days to go..! and a picture of the Kat all packed up and ready to go before Monday.

    CAN"T WAIT

    I'm jealous. I just know you are going to have a ball. Here's hoping that it doesn't belong to Swedish tourist named 'Sven' (aka Heidy)

    Are they off a Kwaka? CBR rotors ?
    Do they have to come for warrants?
