    G'day, just getting back into it myself...probably see you at the next Burt. Spent the last 12 months rebuilding an XS 650 yam....pissed the handbrake off big time with the amount of hours in the shed. Rolled it out last week...for once she didn't have a lot to say. (view my profile for a pic) now she's talking about maybe getting a bike herself, so it all ends well!

    Hey Bikemad,
    I think we all are a bit bike mad around here.
    Wanna tell us about your bikes, real nice selection by the model descriptions. What Mk is your lemon?

    Ah.. the Mk3, best of the 850's and the one I would happily harbour in my collection. Been a few come up on Trademe lately. Tempting...
    Hope it has not been too long between rides on it, they don't like sitting around.... done more than a few rear main seals on Guzzi's that have been 'resting'

    The needle and seat goes from sitting around. If you can get it going by Sunday we are going for a run to Raglan via some roundabout way. I am immersed in small block appreciation at the moment. Trying out some ideas on a cheaper rego Guzzi for day to day running.
    And we are having a rally second week of Feb.

    Membership has to be approved by the group moderator. I find this out now, after leaving the group to see how to join, so now I'm not a member either. Will PM the moderator and get us both in...
