oh now thats nasty...
but while your there, i just been looking a some pics of the 42 track, and it looks a little nasty,but nice.
have u riden it in the wet, and in your mind, is a set of E-07s going to get me through with minimal trouble..
if we strike a little rainy stuff.....

An E-07 on the rear will get you anywhere.
Just stick something MT21/D606/TKC80 style on the front.

true but braking on loose surfaces is vastly better with something meaty (E09, 606) on the back.

Just priced up D606's for the DR today ready for the KCR - oh dear, added to cost of sump weld & bashplate, i'm getting poorer by the minute! And I haven't even priced sorting the luggage thang yet!

[junkmanjoe]

$300(160+140) for the pair from Motorad.
Will be checking elsewhere/online for comparison though!

if a dr could go as fast as a klr it would need a back brake too

Sheeet, glad you didn't get ticketed mate - also remember the stupid buggers have stuck the rego out of sight behind the reg plate on that thing - must remember to go get a holder and replacement tag - don't really wanna get pulled over for something silly!

Hope you told the Doctor to be gentle with her!

i did hear a big crash sound, and a chap said naughty words,,,,

I'm very attached to her already as she is, hope he's not adding any extra character to her already perfect form!

Hey Joe, i went through from the Owhango end on Sunday which is supposed to be the more difficult direction and had no worries at all.

My rear tyre is currently a 3/4 worn IRC GP110 which is a close pattern peice of crap like a Bridgestone Trailwing,so even in the wet you should have no problem with your E-07s.

Fishers track is actually more wet/boggy than the 42nd but is mostly downhill anyway and not steep,mainly second gear riding so you should be okay as long as you dont fill you fuel tank right up and add another 100 kgs weight to the bike.

So as I suspected, the Trailwings that came on my DR definitely have to go before the KCR! There's no chance I am going to be able to be a cheap git and leave them on is there - damn damn damn!!!!
