[kevfromcoro]

Yeah power is a bit of a problem on the road..
all my gear runs on recharge battries.
still need to get to caravan park every few days and charge everthing up...
a bit of stuff can be charged of the bike...
Does anyone know if i can charge up a laptop... of a 12 volt outlet..?
Think its possible......

[Eddieb]

You can get little solar powered units that should charge a set of batteries ok, use all that free sun.

Thanks eddie...will look into it..
Made a few mistakes.. when i started out....
Bought a tent that ya couldnt sling a cat in..... bought a bigger one.. its a bit heavier... but heaps of room..
Also my camera is a big bulky thing.. takes good pics... but to big to carry in my pocket.
Its on the tank bag....
Should of got one of those little pocket ones.....
Ita all a learning curve.....

Bit of a trip allright....
Big outfit his ozzy init
Watcha upto in Perth. dj.
I just bought an outerstate bike,, just going through he process of changing the plates.
Bit of a hassle.
Not like NZ......

Yeah Kev, they have some dumb rules round vehicles over here eh? You would not belive the shit I had to go thru just to extend my CTP for the rest of the bikes time here( 7 months). You would think I was after a free pass to shag Mrs Rudd.

I work in the Wheatbelt driving the huge seeders putting in next seasons crops. I will post a pix once our rig is fully assembled( next week), so Im not in Perth but 700km away near Esperance.

My interesting pix?

Have a look at this and tell me wots wrong - cause it is wrong. IS-

a) my beer belly too big, or-
b) my penis too small, or-
c) is this how I feel about the WA DPI ( NZs LTSA) ?

[shafty]

DSE do a unit that will run?charge laptop off 12v, but it draws quite a bit of current!

[ducatijim]

So maybe there is nothing wrong.

Well, thats a relief(?)!

Nice beach..

Yeah, that was a bit of a wee problem for a while. No longer load that stuff out from there but are still cleaning up the town of the stray lead.
Still, who wanted to live forever anyway

Not really 'adventuring', but went for a ride with the Esperance branch Ulysses today( yes, I am that old kids!) - met a guy at the pub last nite-he was oggling the skimpy with me and we got yarning, as you do in these situations, and he told me he was in from 'out east' for a shag and a club ride, well, rather nicely he invited me along on the ride( the wheeled 1...no offer on the other kind?), ans as I had bugger all else better to do I accepted!
About 20 bikes, all the folk very friendly and welcoming, unlike some branches in NZ, and lo and behold there was another 990- Darkie had a mate! The ride was not much of a story-200km straight flat road to Norseman and 200km back( with a stop at the local for a couple of coldies and a random chat with a nice young thing on a Ducati)
A good day had by all.
Some pix 4 U-

[Bass]

What's the big red machine in the background of the first piccy for?

Also, that other 990 looks like it's fitted with a Trailwing (or have I got that wrong?).

I thought it was impossible to put a Deathwing on a KTM as they are immediately rejected and spat off.

Correct - about being wrong.

Not sure what it is though?

Mate, that red machine is a Miller( same brand as the silverwheels spreader I was driving) Nitro boom sprayer-high clearance for over crop work and a boom of somewhere round 120' width.

Wrong....stock Pirelli Scorps. Right bout KTM's reaction to deathwings thou!

Too busy now to post much but may get a pix of the whole rig today as I start seeding.
