So many people just like to watch haha. 
I reckon I’m top 3 but she’s a pretty tidy bike. 

I’m bidding on a SS50 on trademe. Over 200 watchers… I somehow don’t think I’ll be winning that for how much I want to spend 

I think to check it’s not seized you could chuck it in 5th with the plugs out and push it? 
To build oil pressure crank it over with leads off plugs. Pretty sure oil light comes on if not enough oil pressure. 

I might be completely wrong tho 

After reading this properly I’d have to agree with anglia… why wouldn’t you just use as a front hub?

Fixies are dangerous enough (speaking from experience) without adding electric motors to the mix.. 

It gets better

Every time I scroll past this I click on it to have a chuckle and then don't add it to my watchlist 

Actually, I think this bike is awesome. Legit JDM GN with spoked wheels and some cool mods. 

Thanks. I’d certainly do it myself if I had time energy and the space with a lift to do it!

Hey team 

The Subaru family wagon needs a clutch done. 
Does anyone have recommendations for a decent workshop that can do it for me? 
 

Cheers

Looks more like bacon fat that gear oil

Is that the red one? It’s soo far away tho..

"You won’t find this beautiful retro bike as this affordable price! 5500 to 4000 now" - says the guy whos bike has been listed for a month. 

That’s the one Flauski built i think. 
Mines not far off res which is still less than it owes me. I was gonna do a Lifan conversion if I can’t get a a100 engine but it’s prob too good for that.

GN is a last resort 

Listed the Harley and A50 on tm. Was hoping to sell the A50 and get a SS50. It’s not looking promising.

Does this mean I like boys now?

It means boys like you. 

Def try some on and keep an eye out for deals on TM. Bike shops usually have deals on public hols too

Not crazy speeds for us but we were pretty much non stop. 
Bed at midnight on Friday and on the road at 5 again.

I dont know what it is, but my loins went all jelly....

 

Looks like a modified Skyteam. 

This gets me all excited. Buell “super cruiser”. Looks like a club style cruiser with performance and handling. 
Doubt it’d make it here.

Lol @Mop Head was telling me mechanic at his old job would refuse to take carbs of certain bikes if customer didn’t also get new rubber boots as 100% of the time they’re fucked 

I tried to buy new ones for my Katana but NLA. Heated them to an within an inch of their lives and coated with silicone to jam the new flatslides on, I don’t care what happens they’re not coming back off ..

How about a mint ag100 with reg on hold 

Too noice for Tori, also not a Suzuki haha

@Indiana_Jones one a bit closer to home on TM

In the NZ motorcycle magazine. 

Asking as my Mrs failed her restricted by not parking right… I’m guessing she was blocking traffic. 
She done the bronze course the day before but likely lack of confidence more than anything

Any tips or pointers?

Look up what is required for the test and watch the recent YouTube videos where people talk about it. 
Lots of head turning to look in mirrors and everything is assessed, even how you get on the bike at the start.
