Oz Monster Introductions

[RZ500]

What are you trawling for?
Not another trackie, the 2 stroke type 

Nah, the RZ500 has been in the shed for 15 years.  It will need a complete strip down and I don't have time/space/funds for it. 

The S4 instead is in for a major service, needing also some extras like a volt regulator and 3 x rockers (stupid crap chrome).

I was looking for various things and probably will purchase only 1 or 2...  twin headlight, carbon belly pan, new indicators, brake pads, suspension settings, touch up paint, carbon radiator covers, clutch basket & disks... Not necessarily in that order and not all "must have"... just mucking about really, but some obvious ones I do have to acquire....

G'day all, Tony here.

Just purchased a 1 yo 695....its my first duke so I'm pretty excited about it!

Rode it home the other day & parked it in the shed & have begun pulling it apart.  Have got a heap of bits coming from the USA so I'm hoping to have it back on the road in a few weeks so I can start enjoying it.

Are there many members here from SA?

[Jukie]

Hi Tony,

Tony

Hey Tony, Welcome to another South Ozzie!


Wow! seven members from S.A. We'll have to have a party to celebrate when we reach ten.

Look forward to seeing some pics of your new ride tony.

what part of S A are you from?


a ride could be on the cards when you get your bike together.

[tonymtber]

Hi Vossy,

Yeah for sure.  It would be good to catch up & give me a few pointers & tips on the Duke.

I'm in the Adelaide hills near Nairne.  Now that the weather has finally come good I'm itching to get it back on the road.

Where are u in SA?
