Could bring the dr250 for max big block/suffering It's nice to ride something where my knees aren't around my armpits tho, they are pretty bad now so I might need some braces to help standing on the pegs for the whole trip -

Almost time for 2021 thread? I might take my dr200, assuming that's in the spirit of ride? It's maybe too capable and has a huge 200cc engjne, but it is 36 years old I guess Probably will blow up on the way there anyways -
Tony's tyres is 96 bucks for a car

do you think if i plumbed a supercharger into my throttle body/map sensor all in one unit it would shit itself (i.e. making it blow through) I think they would normally have a pressure release valve so the boost has somewhere to go at low/closed throttle, would a couple PSI push open the butterfly i doubt its the best way, but i happen to have all the parts sitting there, only other issue is the stock ecu
-
did you find the frame number?
-
Oh yeah the caps are known to shit themselves in the ecu

Loving my lithium battery on GN. 4kg lighter and I have left it for over a month and still has full power
-

And replace them every stage?

radiator cap is basically open to the environment on these, its just a cap to keep water from sloshing out/mice from drowning i just use that nulon long life green in my stuff Rudi. Morrie has had some in there for 5 years and its still bright green. commer i just ran straight water with a little oil and seemed to be fine (cos i filled what i thought was a clean jerry can up with water. turns out i had 2 identical ones but one with 500ml of oil in it lol), but i was running it every day and then draining it when it wasnt getting used for more than a few weeks

https://www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/zenith-d-shackle-10mm-galvanised/p/274662 Couple of those on my load leveler (might be the 8mm ones I'd have to double check) but the engine crane is rated to 1 ton max I believe so no worries there

Liability, they don't come with the $$$ cert to say they can lift over your head. Lifting an engine will be ok as long as you get some right sized ones. I have been using two from there for lifting my ju k for a while

oh dang, sounds too fancy for me anyways

Yeah the studless ones I. E. The cheap ones that nz is the world's dumping ground for.

Snow tyres are for the snow, not for rain Tho good quality winter tyres do OK on wet roads now, you are still better off with an OK set of normal tyres
-
anywhere is fine, just run some ok thickness wires. its a lucas product we are talking about, so they normally just run through the switch and barely work. id tuck it under the dash somewhere do you have a power distribution block/ secondary fuse box somewhere?

Italian bicycles are the same tiny little non functional brakes, because why would you want to slow down in a race -
