Some of the corners have loose stuff on them though

Don't like front wheel drifts.

ya know i've tried to ride one of those unicycle thingys - f_ckn impossibe they are!!!

I'd personally be happy to ride the GSPD through the Penzance at the moment, but even the slightest hint of moisture and i'd probably pull the pin due to the greasy clay/slime on the penzance end.

Had a great ride guys, first ride that i've just cruzed along in ages rather than being in a rush - really must do it more often.

Hey Nordie !!

Y'know how you nearly caught me going up the Whangas yesterday.....

well I discovered today the throttle cam wasn't put back together proper

so I couldn't get full throttle

I thought it didn't feel right for the last 1/4 turn

You could pretend you were on it. We won't tell.

How much of your weekend was spent lying in the river though?

I'm mucho jealous! Birthday today was fun today though

I reckon I might have the DR running in time for winter....and then I have a fighting chance of killing it before next summer

Does anyone know if you can purchase coloured wiring ie Green/black in smallish lengths (or longer ones I guess)? Planning to tidy up wiring, do some minor cosmetic tidy ups (for $0 invested), and then take to Vin Orr for final tune (the cosmetics/wiring is planned so it doesn't look like he'd be wasting his time

Single-colour wire is widely available off the reel at places like Jaycar and probably auto-electrical suppliers like Youngs. Repco? I don't have a source for the twin coloured stuff used for a lot of OEM wiring, but I'd like one.

I have some that you are welcome to pilfer if you only need small amounts. Some is on small reels and other stuff has been scavenged eg I have the wiring loom from a PC because it's a whole heap of different colours in ~400mm lengths.

It is an excellent idea to follow/replicate the original colours as it will make life easier for the next person that looks at it... which could be you.
