I've got to put 1000 km on this before Monday, so it can go in to be converted to a race bike.
Not sure I can cope.

Well, we've just celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary and haven't been stabbed or otherwise maimed by my infinitely better half so I'm extremely lucky . Also celebrate our joint 70th birthdays in a couple of months so to mark both events, we're lashing out and going on a 4x4 safari through Kenya and Tanzania. Just got time to get one more decent ride in beforehand
63.5 percent of mission accomplished. Down to Taihape, gas & a Moro bar, over the Gentle Annie to Hastings, another splash of gas & a feed & back to Taupo.
Great day, but obviously not as young as last time I rode a bike like that.
I'll drop the forks through & Jack the arse up a bit in the morning & do the same route clockwise tomorrow weather pending.
I phoned the chum that going to race it & had a yarn. He said to slide the forks up 4mm in the clamps.
It was fine rolling through high speed corners at umm, the speed limit, but nailing it off a slower apex it would run wide & rolling off the gas to try to fix it made it extra horrible.
...I was thinking I may have to pull out of the Spring Classic, Nth vs Sth at Manfield in Oct due to fukn dollars and sense...so I booked the flights and a mattress and shower for three days before I actually fell into the 'shoulda done it' scenario, down the track...done deed now......j
I second that, well done you two and do enjoy Tanzania.
My Ratbag now rides her own bike ( A Big Arsed ol Arlen Ness Nosed M50 Boulevard) for now, she's just had a trip up Norf to Whangarei with a bunch of hairy assed Fat Bikers, this weekend, enjoyed herself despite herself she did.
Report when you get back please.
Friend of mine from here, has just returned from 2 weeks in the mountains of Pakistan riding a rented Enfield 2 up, they had a great time.
Every day above ground is a good day!:
