    Never mind, I read it and enjoyed it. Yes, the Taupo road rocks - both ways! You need to try it at about 3am in the morning...

    Well when you get that keyboard going its hard to stop huh?


    Bloody good report. I am not too miffed about missing it. Sure I wish I was along for the ride but bigger fish to fry just round the corner and have to spend money wisely. (Since all your plans of getting meanies fuel card sucks)

    Desert road looks like a bit of a challenge. It was like that when I first moved to ashhurst and brought the bike down from hamilton. Had light gloves and no "mangrips" (as they are now to be called) and spent an hour and a half warming up in waioru.

    Nearly all men can stand adversity and hard time, but if you want to test a mans true character, give him power....

    fuck. even I am not THAT rough.

    50ml squezzy bottle.
    1m pressure tubing
    3 cable ties.

    works on vibration.

    No leaks while bike is not moving and a very slow drip while bike is moving. Might be a little too slow so just reach down and give the bottle a small squeeze at the end of ride. Might have a closer look at the scott oilers and see about running a vaccuum line in the top of it.

    sounds good, maybe a 2nd line into the exhaust to provide a smoke screen for that covert getaway and/or another onto the back wheel for that mandatory burnout at the cafe b4 coffee

    Maybe, although my bike will have had it's first service by then so it might be a much bigger ride
