If you have no luck getting one locally let me know. I'll go and dig around in the bermuda triangle that is my garage and try to find the one off my bike.
If I can't find it I'll strip the one off Michelles bike and ship it down since we've decided to de-register it anyway and since it has a GN carb the whole choke arangement is redundant anyway.

If you had said something yesterday we could have pulled it off then.

If no one has one I might have one somewhere. It'd probably take me ages to find if I had one though. The garage fire we had meant all of our stuff is mixed up and chucked in random bags etc.

Cheers Henk let me know and i'll chuck you some cash...

I was lucky enough to be able to replace the front mudguard via tradme last night! so be awesome to replace this just as easy, lol!

PM me your adress and I'll go and take Michelles bike to bits tonight and she will mail it down to you tommorrow.
If the postage comes to much I'll beat some cash out you next time we meet, otherwise don't worry about it.

Anything else terminaly broken that I can ship to you as an exercise in clearing some of the crap from my garage?

I almost asked you yesterday if you needed anything to get your bike ready for the ride to work. I'm gutted now that I didn't, but sort of thought you'd have said something. I'm going to ride the damned thing in two weeks, so would've had two weeks to get anything you needed replaced. Tempted to ride back down to drop it off, but will post it to you tomorrow (courier bag thingy). Henk will get the address off you I guess.
Hopefully it'll get there overnight and you'll have it Wednesday. Will send you a tracking number once sorted.

Thanks chook, we didn't know until we looked at it today. Didn't have time to get it ready again to test it at the track on Sunday and ended up doing much else so stupidly didn't think to look until today...
As said previously, I really do appreciate your guy's generosity! Cheers

Somehow think I might miss my bucket. Maybe I should put a fake return address on the envelope so it doesn't go missing from the garage. Mind you this is west Auckland so there would be any number of suspects.
I saw Malcolm trying to straighten the bolt that holds the bar ends on I think, so I'll throw a couple of those in if I can find them since I've got 4 to spare and they are a decidedly uselsess size for anything else.

You're just lucky that I didn't blow your engine up.....

**Henk** · 5th April 2010, 19:51

Good point. If I sent you my bike it would take you to the last three laps of every race to relax so I'm doing you a favour by keeping it here.

Oh yeah Pumba. I loaned her my bike after somebody else crashed hers, it still runs and she didn't come close to crashing it. Would have been worth the laughs if she had gone for a bit of a slide.
