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!
cheers for the welcome Jimmy and Tate..............yeah keep in touch Jim im from CHCH originally.....valley inn heathcote was my local usually stay with and ride to the burt with old friends from there lookin forward to the next one already
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?

gidday dodgy.......thanks for the welcome...............MK3...........got a photo of another one i used to have with a lemon on the seat...............broke down at te aroha many years ago on a ride with the IMOC crowd... have to admit i cant remember the last time i rode it........ bought the susuki just over a year ago to do track days but took the ducati to hampton downs for a blast just before xmas and now probably gonna sell the susuki...........the 955 is the main road bike......done the last two burts on it and many more to come.....cheers
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.
