a pickie would be nice, or at least some more info on what it is

79 CBX1000, Performance Machine brakes, forks, one off swingarm, candy red with black stripe, pair of Kerkers, one off billet wheels. She gets ridden like my beloved wife. The gixer gets ridden like my dirty mistress.

I'm winding you up - did it work??

nuf said, madbikeboy, that sounds a really mean bike, so this invitation for a group ride has moved for you from "optional" to "compulsory"!

**psyguy** · 10th June 2008, 10:05

there's also a gs1000 guy who might want to joins us, so i think the numbers are becoming "serious"

i'll keep everyone posted by pm's about the proposed meeting time, would be one of the comming saturdays

No worries, I need to sort out a new back brake seal, for some reason the fluid has vanished since I last rode her. Also, need to fix a leaky o-ring on the fuel tap. Old bikes eh.

the oil seals retainer clips pretty much disintegrated just by me looking at them...

*fingers stuck firmly in ears*
LAH, LAH, LAH, LAH, LAH...................

Make sure you give some notice for this ride. I'm not 17 any more - these days I have to plan in advance.

**classic zed** · 10th June 2008, 18:05

you can count me in, I'll have to bring the standard one as the monster is not finished yet

**Pedrostt500** · 10th June 2008, 18:22

Bugger I would love to be there with me 1984 K100, but Im at the wrong end of the Island.

**psyguy** · 10th June 2008, 19:54

classic z, good to hear from you
yours is likely to be the biggest monster of all nonetheless

pedro, if you want to start something similar down south and if it takes off in both places, maybe one day we can plan a big inter-city meet in, say, taupo
now that'd be really cool

Dunno, it's still looking likely.

If co-ordinate a visit to see my kids and one of your rides I would like to join up for a ride.
