Fanks.  It's been a pile of fun.  Thus far we've rebuilt the brakes (new pistons and seals), resprayed the tank and plastics, and rebuilt the carbies.  We've got a list the length of your arm of stuff that still needs doing (new clipons, Pazzos, mirrors, repaint the subframe and triples, drop the motor out and rebuild it, get the forks rechromed...)

Meanwhile, my monster gets neglected Smiley

I have drowned more than one phone and iPod whilst riding in the rain since moving to Victoria.  I now put my phone in an aquapac and my iPod has waterproof case made by h2o audio that has external controls and clips onto my jacket so I can control it easily.

I found these in kayaking shops - great places for waterproofing solutions for electronic gadgets.

Sorry you guys are having such crap weather  Cry Cry  it's lovely riding down here in Mexico  waytogo Dolph (and no DD  Police)

Got my love letter from the EPA today, bike is booked in for testing at a Granville affiliated testing garage... which is just a typical servo workshop. The only one who does them around Sydney, told me over the phone that they have never had a problem with bikes so fingers crossed all will be fine......just the afternoon off work plus $40 for the test which is a lot better than i was told.

Unless it doesn't pass...... Assume your gone back to stock for the test, quick someone take a photo! A stock item in Brian's bike!

Pushing the limits of fuel tank reserve.
Today I came very close to running out of fuel,S2R1000 book says 17lt including reserve.
The pump at the servo said 17.3 lt
I think that was a little too close to empty for comfort
for future reference I got 34km after the light came on  waytogo
On a downside Luba's 695 spat the dummy on our Sunday morning
ride .Engine just cut out while running and would not re start. Bloody Italian lectric's  bang head
Lucky for us it was not far from home  Managed to get the van and get it back home.,
We had planned going up to the Blue Mountains with a friend but at the last
minute opted for local due to double  Police Police revenue .

Me thinks the side stand switch may of failed as no neutral light showing while in neutral and will not turn over.

I knew it would happen one day soon, the law of averages leaned heavily against him........being Paul.
The lad dropped his bike today, no injuries incurred, though his sons scooter looked worse for wear.....yep, it happened in his garage.
Bugger.
Seat a bit too high mate?

Point taken Brian!

Let me know if you need to borrow my set of bafflers for your visit to the EPA?
