My new bike

[EJK]

Finally I have purchased another bike!

Thanks to GIJOE1313, he was with me when I was buying the bike. He said the bike was ok, I was happy with the condition so the deal was done

After the purchase, I followed Justin to his place to learn all tricks to buff out (?), bike wash, degrease, etc etc.... He is a great teacher indeed!

After a bit of wash, suddenly the bike wouldn't start.....

So, me and Justin did all sorts of stuff to try and make it start again....

...again....

...again...

...and again...

Later we finally gave up, it wouldn't start (did I mention it was around 10:30pm at the time?)
I again leant how to bump start, kick start, flooding, recharging bat etc etc...

Finally GIJustin took me home on his car.

That day I figured Justin is one hell ova guy! He is patient, calm, kind etc etc! He is even crazy! (in a good way lol). Oh, he showed me his 40k collection while we were charging the battery lol


Next night, I gave him a call. He replied everything is OK
I heard Nigel (Donor) too was there during the day to fix the bike (Thank you very much! Guys, give him a bling when you find his post)

Now, I'm going to pick it up from GIJustin's place and maybe take it to a Suzuki Workshop to make sure it'll survive the coro-loop on Saturday


Justin's got all the pics so be patient lol


P.S. Hmmm I feel like I've left out something...

P.P.S Send blings to GIJOE1313 and Donor for me

Bahahahaha.

So it's got a kick start at least?

Suzuki?

So it's got a kick start at least?

Suzuki?

DR 350? :spudwhat:

[EJK]

Keep the guesses comming, I won't tell till GIJustin uploads the pics lol

[PirateJafa]

Well we know it's a Suzuki, and probably a two-fiddy, and has a kickstart.

Did you buy Dushy's RG? That'd explain the lack of forward motion from the bike.

fxr150............?

[xwhatsit]

fxr150............?

Going by Justin's `Can't start this bike' thread, I think you're right.

Good choice! Light, narrow, heaps of ground clearance (important for you, lol) -- such a fun motor too, heaps of revs.

[Big Dog]

Good to hear you are back in the fold lol.

Will upload piccies when have chance ... Just gotta check out what craziness peeps have been up to on OpressMaoriDay!
