Well stop building random motorised vehicles and give him a hand!
Im out:(
I cant now too. Wont have the cash
My Vfr has a leaking rad ( not sure where it's coming from) and I don't know why. I took off the nomex rad guard and it has random sprays of coolant on the rad.
So I've been tinkering with the MT09 - led Indicators and shit, modded the seat to make it flatter and more mortard like, new air filter, sintered pads and hopefully with a new akra full system (and ecu reflash) if it gets here on time. I did 4 years of tax returns and it seems to have worked out well.
Who's actually in?
I can't fucking wait.
I need to start planning the trip and put both bikes back together but me and the Mrs are in. Have 2 weeks off work :D
So who's heading from down south? Wondering if I should head down to Melb first and then ride up with a few people
I'm out. Actually got 5 days work a week for the next month, but no days off
Im still in at this point.... But I may have a new job opportunity, so put me down as a maybe
I'm back to being a maybe. Wont know 'til the week before
I'm still in. And the new Akra on the MT09 sounds fucking Awesome.
Well this sucks, turns out a miscommunication with me and the missus has resulted in a few days away with friends booked and payed for on NFR weekend my fuckup.. so I wont be attending this year dammit..
you shitting me Gitzy? Come on!!!
Nup, muchos disappointed :-(
Who the fuck will take all the pics??
Who's going this year so? People are dropping like flies...
Me, weasel, Tiller, you and your missus are definates. Numbers is mostly in.
Nudie is kinda in.
On the plus side, it will be easy to fit us all in the photos. That gitzy isn't taking. Cause he's soft.
That award has gone to his head, I reckon.
So no one from Vic coming this year.. Everyone is getting soft it seems
I'm a busy busy beaver julian. no time for such tomfoolery :P
You just press play on your fancy machine. what's taking up your time?
pressing play heaps of times ;)
Chuck a relationship sickie...
Sorry guys, Im out
Everyone is bailing this year??
Weasel, I blame you that this is all due to the change in Venue!!!!
Not everyone. I'm still in.
fuck me its going to be one small group! what 4 all up?
5 if you come. lol
I'm coming for sure! and will be on the fighter too, I won't be down until saturday morning though as the wife feels I don't need to be there friday night :-(
I had the MT09 reflashed yesterday, and it feels like an extra 20HP. It's not, but it feels awesome with the akra, new air filter, and fancy pants flash.
I can't fucking wait.
They go good with a decent fuel map hey.
I was going to try and get down to NFR this year but the drought has brought what little harvest we will have here in a bit earlier than usual so I'm head down and arse up for the next two months. See you's at AFR.
Oh yes.
I can't wait to really open it up and check it out without the top speed limiter.
hey I got the ZXR through rego so I'll be on it for sure this year! (prob be the slowest of the bunch)
Since i was riding down all by meself this year, i went inland. Windsor to lithgow via bells line, then down to oberon, then Goulburn, then bored myself on the Hume to make up time to gundagai, then in to Tumut. A couple of pics from the way down.

Jules' gixxer was leaking. Who needs an oil tight motor anyway.

Then we went out on Saturday, which lasted about 35 seconds because Jules' clutch cable broke. Back into town, cable out, off to the bike shop to wait for the call to say it was fixed, which came at 5pm.
We had a fry up instead of a ride, and drank, and talked shit.

We went for a quick ride up towards wee jasper (i think?) on Sunday morning, no cars, a shitload of bugs that sounded like riding through rain when they hit your visor. Nice little time trial. Then load up and head home.
Jules, Sarah and I went up the Hume, they turned off at Yass to go and see fancy pants, I stopped at goulburn.
Usually more people, and less bugs.
