Those 2 xr650's got me drooling............ Ya right about the crap range budda, Used to always carry a couple of coke bottles with spare gas. Why did I sell mine

    As long as they are kitted up , haven't really heard of any opposition? Kids ride was talked about a while back at one of the rallies, woodstock? maybe a barbie or something at the end of it, as Alot are still only on trikes aye Dangerous

    i'm a tad worried as our 2 1/2 yr old can climb up on my bike, put the key in , and start the bike( when I'm there of course) and demand a ride on the fuel tank up and down the drive).

    brp I still love you
    You let my boy ride the hoonish thumper! & you'd never even met or ridden with him before!how awesome is that?
    Gathered being your son he'd know his way round a bike He handled it like a dream - nice and smooth, refreshing to meet a young guy with good manners, he had a good "grin on" when he jumped off at Duvauchelle's.

    Melviee (brit green 900 trumpie) and I came back through governors bay and I ran out of gas at the waltham bridge lights, lent bike over and made it home - we should have turned off at gebbies and came out at the sign of the kiwi.

    Might have to shell out for one of those whale tanks - or stock up on coke bottles

    Twas a great ride over the hill. Enjoyd it heaps. about to leave all kitted, and the bloody key would not turn the ignition on... somthing jammed somehow... had to leave the bike in a back shed... poor thing... I mourned for her right up until I saw her single eye gleeming through my rear vision mirror on trailer behind me car last night.
    What a great night for a ride last night it would have been, no traffic at all, almost, wet conditions and heaps of understeer along with the stink of brakes each sde of the hill... mmmmm yum.

    One bonus from it all, and after which lead me to showering. I sure got me "leg over", (made well aware of my choice of words... ooops)... but getting back to town, thunder let me ride is new B-King back to town...(I almost felt a little slutty) cheers to SuziQ Thunder and Transalper... times like these ya feel totally stink, but with assistance from fellow bikers... cheers. Humbling.

    A few pics got by me.
    And hopefully the weekend I shall find solution to me tiny drama.

    Yep, sage advice as always Max! I have a little LED keyring which has saved me many times, puncture kit is on my list now

    I am in so long as they're a day time thing. I work Sat nights so would have to be home by 6pm, tucked up nice and warm in bed! I wish, more like getting ready for work.

    Nice piccies Sam! Love those G10s! I see the G11 is out so maybe now the 10 will come down to my price range, i.e. second hand and dirt cheap!
