Wouldn't be a bad debut I guess (I've never been, and wasn't planning on it anytime soon).

I keep planning and something happens.
The one year im ready to rock and its cancelled.
I was even packed to go.

Last year I was oncall and couldn't get out of it.

My pick of the week

Was an early Bulldog Pick. Possibly not the original handle but a very good replica of the original.
Likely to gain in value and getting harder to find in good condition these days. Great buying and great find.

Spear and Jackson #9 lovely bit of kit.

Turns out its a gtr180 which is 169cc so its a little massive for racing. The hole in the piston makes your chips look inviting now.

I demand pictures!

One for Bogan

FUCK YEAH!

Piston pics.
Looks like it filled with petrol from the carb overflowing then was kicked over and cracked around the rings. Likely burnt its way around for a while.

When I got it had an overflow bottle and outlet rigged out past the number plate via hoses and when you put your thumb on the hose the breather was creating enough pressure to inflate a car tyre.

Seems cheap if you start comparing scooter prices. Not my thing but is the price good?
In Aus they sell for 2600aud.

Anyone ridden one?

I'd say it's more likely flogged out the top lands from being run at or near redline for extended periods.
Petrol will not burn a piston away like that.

I have a receipt from 2011 that indicates petrol in the oil. Its got a new battery in it so I think it may be very historic damage and had rego on hold for a long time. You could be correct but its a gearless transfer trans so would need to be ridden at 120kph + to reach max revs. I don't think they have the hp to do that.

R6 that's likely to sell quickly

[mossy1200]

Not a Honda fan but I would like to own this.

I could hate Hondas the way I do Ducati, but I'd still really want that NS!

[Scubbo]

bargain if it's the 30L one, which it looks like - http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...-932664338.htm

Lots of km but would be fun to ride in the twisty bits.

And probably impossible to thrash it any harder than it likely already has been....
