   Today I rode my monster home . . . from Dmoto, with no cat, spark carbon cans, midpipe, TPO v'stacks, k@n filters, race ecu, new chain and sprockets, 14 tooth front, new engine an belt covers. It sounds better, it looks better, hell, I think it even goes better.
What did you win lotto ?  when you mod you go all out  waytogo Grin
 Well done Steve that will sound great going up Mt Hotham in March

Is there a link to where you got that motorcycle carrier?

Yeah, he's a local Sydney bloke who's importing them from the States. Great guy (Patrick) & I'd definitely recommend him.
He's also a Ducati fan!

Well it has been mentioned elsewhere ... maybe when he was asking if any Mexicans wanted to link up he was referring to those south of the harbour (not necessarily those south of the border)?

Or maybe the three stooges are more like the three amigos than you'd care to admit Lips Sealed Wink laughingdp

The gay hand shake looks very similar to the one the MV crowd use.   Kiss

I just contacted Patrick at Nicerack and clarified how their mechanism works to stop any rocking or wobble on the mount. My equivalent rack for pushbikes wobbles quite a bit and I wasn't keen to have 200kg rocking around on my cars backend at 100kph. However he assured me they have a special no-wobble bolt that inhibits the movement. I'm thinking I will have to get one to ensure my jollys on any country weekend trips I go on with the Mrs, when riding there would be mind (and butt) numbing.

Patrick also said that there will soon be a Motor Cycle Trader review of the rack and AMCN have already given it a thumbs up on their regular Top Gear article.

Believe me, I understand about the 'wobble' fears. Imagine my first outing up the F3!
If you tighten everything up, it actually works brilliantly. Just be sure to double check the vehicle's towing limits. Not just the total weight that you can tow, but particularly the maximum tow ball down weight.
I'm happy with mine, just need another track training or 'fun' day.....
