  1. DRZ400E? with a big tank/maybe some mods?
  2. Really keen to come but I got too much stuff on this time, will try to be there for next time
  3. my yamaha had bad earths everywhere, thats probably where I would be looking
  4. jeez that looks so much better than the low pipes
  5. for rust, this shit is seriously amazing, I used it on the inside of my new fuel tank and it came out amazing. also, its reusable https://www.crc.co.nz/EvapoRust-Ready-to-Use/6895-3df38418-aaf1-46f9-abe2-534e825f0fae/
  6. Nah I retired the little guy, this was on one of glens CT’s. It would have struggled to make it due to how deep most of the fords were unless it was carried all the time. For the CT we drained airbox, carb, cylinder and oil, refilled oil away it went
  7. The snorkel under my seat didnt help much when I tried to cross a river What an amazing weekend, thanks chaps
  8. we havent discussed exact logisitics, but im sure its possible
  9. thats some solid K's!
  10. Anyone dealt with laser welders? Seems interesting This video they are welding 12mm plate which isnt ideal for it IMO, but seems like it would be legit for thin stuff. More talking about a working environment vs car work
  11. Looks like it sold at auction for 2mil on the dot
  12. Sweet, is it a major to remove/move seats around? Needs a recert I guess?
  13. Hey @cletus is it easier to buy a van with many seats and remove some, or buy a van without seats and add some? I want a big van with just one row of seats just behind the driver seats, just wondering if it makes sense to buy one particular type as a starting point
  14. got way too much stuff going on at the moment. selling house, moving house, building new house, moving to france for few months soon. etc etc etc
  15. unless someone wants to go pick that one up for me and hold on to it for a few months
  16. man so keen. Think i'll get one at some point Found the limit of the street magic on this wonderful adventure, still made it to the end of the trip though, but shit me those roads/goat tracks were steep
  17. What’s the objection to powder coating? It’s really robust and looks great IMO
  18. Hey guys, Im looking for a decent auto sparky to wire up a 300zx twin turbo with a link G4. Its for a client of my partner who has some terminal illness so wants it done ASAP paying standard rates etc. Anyone know of someone? Its got some mods to it, but nothing too wild by the looks, and all components appear to be there to wire up
  19. How do you tell an SR version of the seller doesn’t know?
  20. Any particular model you would recommend? I see some have headlights and others don’t, was that just an option when you bought it, but otherwise the same?
  21. yeah not going to lie, I'm also looking at getting a 2 stroke dirt bike onto the road, KDX is a pretty sweet option and looks reasonably streetable compared to most dirt bikes
  22. CVT or under 70cc only now guys, its too easy for big engine bikes, we want to see what you can build
  23. Been mucking around on my street magic. Fitted a new Yasuni R exhaust which needed some mods as the flange wasnt right, a new Daytona variator and a Maikuni 21mm carb (aliexpress pwk clone, quality is reasonable, but worth pulling apart to tighten all bolts before using). It had a PWK21 carb on it previously, but it had corroded a bunch and had some weird mods to it by the previous owner. Scooter goes well now after tuning jets and needle. Still a bit more tuning to do, I think I might shim my variator a bit to get more travel at high rpm, at the expense of a little bottom end, but I think with the latest tuning its acceptable I also realised it has an aftermarket first stage final transmission kit on it, which is quite surprising as top speed isn't as high as I would like it, at about 70kph before variator runs out of movement, then 85kph at max rpm. See how my final tuning goes, and assuming I dont blow up my crank I might consider some different gearing Once I refit knobblies and rear rack she'll be ready for another escapade
