    SOOoooo, I gots me a Bike...

    Found me a far from tidy, but tidy from from afar DR350

    Its the perfect bike for what I want, big bore thumper, low maintenance and running costs, front and rear disc and single rear shock

    (dont you fuckers laugh, but I have never had any of the disc or MONO shock before)

    so yea.... it goes well enough, has a fair bit of surface rust on the worn areas (ie, pegs, side frame, gear shifter, chain) and an ass load of rust on the exhaust, quite possibly I will have to replace teh system..

    but yea..... pretty stoked really, popped a wheelie for teh first time in about 13years when i test rode it..

    Oh sh1t....they've found me already!!
    EVERYBODY RUN before you are cracking Pedobear jokes and pulling the "Shocker" at old ladies.....

    Blue Mountains eh? I got the bike last night, and couldnt help but take it out onto Dowling Grove just on dark and have a blat up road and back.

    Have now stored it at a mates garage today, but took it down to Hutt river for a play first, but slipping the clutch in 2nd to pop a wheelie that makes you sh1t ya' self is a good may to make your mates laugh at you.

    But yes, a new muffler is needed as the rust holes are making the side panels a bit soft, and the massive oil leak from the Rocker cover is smoking on the header.

    She all quality I tell ya!

    We move into our new house in 5 weeks, so I will grab it from my mates and get stuck in, had to hide it tho...

    we currently live with the inlaws, who have just bought the house we are moving to, if they came back from aussie to find a Dirtbike, they would sh1t kittens, lol

    PS, they got 11 inches of travel, but I ahve never been a huge jumper (ER185s and XT550s not ideal) check out "Ghost rider DR350" on you tube, bit of a laugh
