[motorbyclist]

so hopefully i'll be set for a blat by FRIDAY.... but can't promise i'll be able.

cbf doing a coro loop

we'll end at VULCAN LANE for the chiller

[xwhatsit]

There was an article in the paper about Kawakawa Rd or something being closed because the hillside is falling down (all the storms and rain). Who's been down there recently? What's going on? Still OK to ride?

Hey bro, was down there on Saturday and it was closed off couple k's before Kawakawa bay central. Yep, due to the extent of the landslide the local bro told me it could be possibly a few weeks before it's going to be opened.

Everybody is walking couple k's and parking their cars just by the road block barriers.

Btw Andrew, you wanna post up a few photos of your new Honda?

blah blah blah
cbf doing a coro loop

what about a half coro?? kopu to whangamata, then waihi and back up through some more twisties?? im sure the new honda will love you for it

[motorbyclist]

ideally a half day local loop would be good, but if i'm ahead of my work i could spare a day i guess

and could move it to friday too if weather permits

the only concievable "upgrade" for me and it's got less power

better handling but a drop from 59 to 53 horse - but it's all carburation so an nc30 carb will knock it back up to 59... or an injector kit as my 4th year project

she's got a few small cracks but otherwise everything is where it should be

w00t, my NC30 paddock stand fits the NC35

and that muffler is bolt on, which means bolt off and on with a new one

gentlemen, meet the Riffer

[bomma]

sexy, sure you wouldnt be willing to commit to a half coro on a beautiful day with a new machine to get your kicks out of??

[PirateJafa]

Don't like the stock muffler?

Or do you just want something more offensive?

Now now, we don't want to see a shiny new beastie like this wrapped around a power pole!

Please don't beat me!

lol ooooooh think that was below the belt

well it's bolted on so i don't think it's stock anyway... although it is reasonably quiet

but then again, this way i have colour choice

(gotta get her back up to 59 ponies somehow!)

nice bike Andrew.

free whole day on thursday.

Time and place ?

EDIT: I'm keen for coro

[shingo]

I'm keen for waitak loop as i did the coro on sunday and really dont fancy the long trips on the motorway again.

Nice bike bro...and I think you need a big lock to secure it to a pole since we all know it is a well sort after bike....that pipe is stock....get an after market one... nice choice..
