    Farkling seems to be addictive. Is their a support group somewhere? and btw I quite regularly don,t fall off, although I just recently made a camera mount out of an old broken mirror and a few other bits and because i also suffer from Barts disease falling off may well increase exponentially.

    Spent a bit of time in the shed with me dad today, he's 80 in a few days and it was like old times when we used to rebuild the IT after each race, and did you know that there is no bike built that was better than his AJS 7R that he fitted aeroplane forks to. Now thats farkling.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    For sure,

    Just need to get the DR250 road legal (need a new flasher unit, and a fuse this time...)

    I could lend Warewolf the SMX if it isn't sold by then

    I might just have a spare flasher unit (oem?) and probably have fuses to suit. I changed the blinkers on both DR200 and DR-Z250, at least one of them required a flasher unit change to suit the lower wattage bulbs. You're welcome to it.

    Bugger, the moral of the story is that I should spend my life on KB...bought one from Repco $25, it's not actually the fault, basically all the lighting wiring has been replugged incorrectly, 2 hours later all fixed - just have to disconnect it again and stick...I'll bet I was paying $65/hour for the boy to have a play

    Upside is, I now also have a spare electronic flasher....

    Ok how about a plan for Sat? Meet here at home at 2.45pm if you want to drop off snags or beer or 1st carpark on lhs at Branford Park at 3pm for a ride over Maunga & thru to Hori Bay coming back here for a bbq around 6ish?

    I will have some salads & coleslaw & bread etc & some basic sausies if you can't be arsed bringing food.
    Let me know numbers if possible so I know what size lettuce to try to catch from the garden.

    Any other ideas gratefully accepted.

    I can PM my address to those that don't know where I live.

    ounds good alright, but i have a feeling things may well get decidedly pear shaped for me on Saturday work wise, but won't know till tomorrow. Will let you know though.

    Sounds good, PM would be appreciated, not looking like I'll make the ride as DR250 is still not running...
