    C all you ugly buggers at the BP.
    hi not sure how to use this forum, ive been looking for an xv owner as i was doing my monthy scavinge at a friends scrap yard and spied what looks like and xv1000 on its way to the crusher, its only good for parts, seems a waste to scrap it, im sure some gear is still ok, the engine in still in it carbs are there but not on the engine. Email me at qld.tsv.game@gmail.com let me know if you or somone else may want to save it, it will cost its weight in scrap which is bugger at the moment.

    Thanks for thinking of us, my ol "coal Burning" XV is really a TR!1. But no one here in NZ knows what that is.
    She's 100% rebuilt literally from the ground up, including a hand done paint job by a bloody amazing artist.
    I've got plenty of bits and pieces for her, but others out there might jumpin and ask you for stuff and they'd be welcome.
    Every day above ground is a good day!:

    with new slips and road slumps around the place I will pass, I know of 5 local slips/slumps that had Onewhero school closed today as the buses couldn't get around... looks like the same deal tomorrow

    Plus I need to catch up on work jobs being Jeff didn't get to work...... He felt it to much of a risk of not getting home with 2 of the 3 ways to work having slips already..... I hope they get it back open tomorrow

    I doubt I will be there this week, been very busy the past couple of months at work (even all weekends)
    but if I make it then got a meeting which has been moved forward to five.


    Caseye - this week I finally found I understood your signature - not for what it says but what it means for those remaining.

    John Clarke - Fred Dagg

    now also out 27th another group meeting

    Nice run last night plenty of curves (on and off road)

    c u in a couple of weeks

    Leathel. IMO Lanolin if he just wants to keep it. But not leave it outside
    Clear coat would add more work. Would it be better if it's being driven around?

    Day off today, just doing some light reading on topics discussed last weeks ride before doing something useful.

    http://www.valkyrieriders.com/shoptalk/desmog.htm

    now I understand much better what was described by Leathel and the difficulty involved
