    Greetings From Billyvan

    Hi from a new CHCH rider.

    Well at the moment I aint riding, due to two project bikes on the go.

    I have a 1985 Suzuki GSXR400, which I am needing to sort out a gastket set for, so I can put the motor back together after it dropped a valve and buggered the head.
    Long story on this one, brought it as a project may years ago, got it going and sold it to a family member, they finished it, rode it for a while, blew the head, got spares, then sold it back to me many years later, now all I need is a gasket set when I get my A into G!!!

    Heres a pic of what it looked like originaly, mine has a custom paint job (which I did myself), Black pearl of my own mix, and a frost finish (silver with blue edges) on the rims.

    I also have a 1980 Suzuki TF185 which I am doing a rebuild job on.

    So no riding for me at the moment till I get something back on the road.

    Anyway, tonight is the first time I had seen this forum, so it's good to see that the Kiwi riders have a place to chat!!

    Keep your humour, don't mind the freaks geeks and tweaks... Use the knowledge, add to it, participate...

    Welcome...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    Welcome to KB!
    The width of the rear tyre on that bike scares me...
