Why do you always go on about women Stan?

I have matching accessories thank you.
RJays hat even.

Only a 3 speed hub.

That is remarkably choice. Bro.

Where's the basket?

**nudemetalz** · 2nd November 2011, 11:44

What revs does it make pulling it's 1/3 of a horsepower.... (sorry,.. 0.11kw)...?

**Big Dave** · 2nd November 2011, 13:20

It has a knee governor on the revs.

The Basket is operating the keyboard.

Well HDC - it's coming together nicely.

Ape hangers installed and I fabricated a bracket to get the headlight up off the forks:

and suitably Rat Finked:

New lights installed and I'm waiting for a good cycle computer to come in at my bike shop - this one is junk:

It's taller than my KLR now, but the Doogle approves - he runs beside it for 5-10km every afternoon - and loves it.

This is all about getting some exercise in. I HAVE to do it, but it's far easier putting in on something cool and fun!

DT Swiss spokes for you matey. I've rebuilt and had a few wheels rebuilt with them. Once you've had them, nothing else compares.

Interesting, thanks.

But I already went to the cycle shop and said 'give me a wheel that will deal' - and I fitted this-un.

The stocker was munted

He emigrates across the ditch and is now spending vast amounts on new bikes and bling!

Depends if you call a KLR 'bling'!

your dog seems to have a bit of an oil leak mate, is it British?

Part Poodle - maybe it's a Voxan.

They are actually tyre marks from the previous owner's vee hickle.
