  1. Remember Dave, more than 2 strokes is wanking
  2. We have maybe 3 extra beds the Wednesday night before the ride starts in Ohope
  3. Hey mate. Appreciate the interest but this thread in particular is for me to post about my old motorbikes and the adventures and tales of woe I have riding them. If you're in the market to buy one I'd suggest putting up a post in the buy/sell section Bikes and Bike Parts For Sale / Wanted - oldschool.co.nz. This is an overwhelmingly NZ based forum though so you might be out of luck looking for Australian bikes.
  4. Entry list is looking good!
  5. @slacker.cam @peteretep @Beaver @Abarth etc
  6. Motu would be cool but I'm super happy with the current route, 3 nights on the road will be a proper ADVenture. Day 2 is pretty long but we're all grizzled veterans at these kind of shenanigans by now. As long as we get to China Palace before it's dark
  7. 22 in the front 25 in the rear!
  8. I'm pumped up like an SR241 goldenboy
  9. EV converting one of these with Leaf gear is a super cool idea. @Ned is the resident EV guru who should definitely come and have a look at this project!
  10. Could you somehow hang some kind of smoke generator next to the exhaust tips and drive around with a passenger looking for any wisps of smoke that enter the cabin?

    PAINT THREAD

    I'm pretty much a paint noob so I need some help. I'd like to redo the white inside lettering on these tank badges on one of my motorbikes. They're chromed plastic. What's my best option here - slap on some paint stripper to get rid of the rest of the paint and then carefully brush in some model paint? Is paint stripper affect the chrome or plastic underneath? What kind or surface prep or primer is needed beyond a good clean with wax and grease remover/isopropyl? Thanks!
