Chch Wednesday Night Cruises 2009-10

Bit of carnage in the Buckets with Ghost Bullet & bren chch going down & phoenixgtr coming to grief.

Hmmm...what a week

[Peeteey]

but if you are interested just get in touch and come around and collect the lot.

I'm always keen on more LEDs and fun stuff so if Max and Grusomhat don't want all of it, I'd love to pick thru it but no worries if they want it all, I'd just be mucking round (trying) to learn about stuff and probably only succeeding in making fire

[helenoftroy]

Good lord, I'd be shaking in my boots! I'd love to try her round the block perhaps or on an easy ride but I'd be soooo nervous! You could ride the Xmas tree!

Nah!!nothing to be nervous about!!
....and ya gotta do more than go around the block on the beautiful beast,she likes to stretch her legs......
Would be great to be back on an airhead,Ive had two - great machines

Hmmm...what a week

Yeah buddy,it aint been a good one for you...
Hope the FXR fix isnt too hard,the wee weapon looks very sad sitting in my garage

[maxf]

That's just the problem, I have all these memories of RM and CR 125s, XL250s and a couple of XR 200s. They are about 20 year old memories but the buzz still lingers!
The only reason I don't have one (or three) is a question of funds.

Ahhh... the old 250s. Had an XT250 (god, laughing my head off seeing them on the Bond movie the other sat) and then an XL250RC - the nice one, with 4 valves RFVC but only the one carb... only problem was they really needed synthetic oils before they were around, that one was running the OH cam direct in the head and starting to lose it at 70k, sad cause it wasn't bad with road rear rubber - with the condition of some of the roads now (and probably getting worse with the new RTF-bought rules for 54 tonne truck limits) the dual-purpose is probably going to become nigh-on required soon.

Hey - I've got no issue with just acting as collector and having a pick-over session for whoever's interested - just be a damn shame to see stuff in the bin, already too many people now have no idea what goes on in all these sealed units and just chuck them for lack of a 5c part - and hands-on is about the only way to really learn.

Maintenance Evenings:

See here

[KiwiPhoenix]

Popped this in here as I'm sure many of you will still pop in!!

I'm planning on doing a ride round the city tonight (since the maintenance nights don't kick off till next week) was thinking meet at BK (usual time) 6pm departing at 6.30pm, do a loop and then head to the pub, Twisted Hop. Any takers??

Sounds great maxf, I'm in my 3rd year of Electrical (electronics) Engineering at UC, so may be interested to see what JMemonic had.

or it goes in the bin come next week.

wouldn't want that to happen

[maxf]

Yeah, I can proabably make a short one...

[Ghost_Bullet]

Wear some motocross boots for good measure Peeteey - was hard covering the rear brake in mine - turns into a scarier animal above 7G the mighty blue duke.
Fling ya leg over the Pig next time we met up Peeteey - you could get some footage of clouds rolling by while you doing mono's
