    Good score.

    I always liked the Impulse - I remember them arriving brand spanking new - pretty sure the first shipment in NZ was $3500 later going up to $4000. They are rev happy wee beasts and proved reliable.

    Give it heaps and you'll have fun.

    PS - that's a huge muffler...........

    Vey nice

    Thinking about what I'm gonna do for a track bike. F3 400 or maybe a ProTwin.. Pretty sure I'll end up giving racing a shot once there are events at Hampton Downs so guess I'll keep an eye on how the classes settle out over the next few months.

    Sounds good. Fork seals need to be done, carby cleaned out, and possibly a bit of fiberglassing work to tidy it up, although i'm not sure where to start on that one.

    I believe I have a plastic welder lying around, probably knicked by my brother.

    I'll try and track it down.

    Good man, that's a toy alright.

    Although I hope you've been doing your yoga lately - those footpegs look like they'll be dictating the "blonde" position (i.e. knees behind your ears...).
    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)

    Funny you should say that. They are very high, and i'm 6'3". I'm gonna try and make a bracket to fit them slightly lower.
