That sounds super, I don't know if @Shakotom was up for doing anything or just being peer pressured. I'm quite happy either way, I don't know how much lead time sticker printers need on this kind of thing? Its possible we're too late already, any idea @Truenotch @Archetype

Anyone got creative skills?

Where were Sutherland and sons staying each night? The reason I ask, is it may make sense to consolidate our room with another after a couple from ours can't make it also.

Booourns, but ok.

Yeah, if I'm honest I haven't touched that one since then.

Yeah I've been using one on the farm as is, just staying away from the rear brake. I aim to have at least one or two spares to put on the recovery wagon.

No WOFs on all 3 (just an FYI) 2 CTs have sticking rear brakes, 1 CT needs indicator stalk broken (have replacement), x2 CTs probably could do with new batteries although not required. XL185 has had a china 27mm replacement carb and I suspect the jetting/quality is a bit dicky. (someone sell me a quality replacement carb for XL185, Thanks.)

I've got a couple loaner CTs, and an XL185. Minor problems, able to be sorted out. I am kinda short on time though.

This is real soon, someone slow down time. So is there anything that anyone needs addressing at this stage? I've quite neglected this ride/thread and its gonna creep up real quick now. Is there anyone who's attendance is unlikely or questionable? Who did I promise accommodation to in Waikaremoana?

Imagine the shenanigans if you hadn't filled in the pewl.

Yeah I've got an ancient pair of colour tune plugs. Feel free to pop em in, I'd expect questionable results though. If you could get wideband working I'm sure that would be preferable

So versatile! Definitely get the rear tyres full of water if they aren't already. It'll make a huge difference. You could also make up a weight for 3 point linkage. I've seen 200L drums with 3 point linkage points sticking out of them, filled with cement.

I think we're gonna need pics!

Yeah just start with the lower one and then move to the top one.

Also the fuel stop levers on them are pretty floppy, so don't expect much resistance there. IIRC the top cover of the pump comes off easy enough.

That pump looks similar to Fergie ones of that era. Dunno if you've tried, but, try cracking open the two bleed points on the side of the pump, hand pump till they burp all the air out, then crack open the lines at the injectors and crank and you know the rest

Yeah I feel like you're gonna be WOT even when slowing down, damn it'll look cool doing it though, if maybe a bit clown car spec though puhuhu.

Good luck getting it back out though, Ian nearly lost a tractor in there the other day

You can stick it in my private wet spot, all summer long

I need to come bask in the glory of this thing in the flesh

Cute! I really need to pull finger and sort out the floaty squirty things at my house. Especially so now.

I can't find now, but I bought the same shit as from Aliexpress but from an Australian reseller on Trademe because I was worried about time at the time. Paid a slight premium to get it a bit faster obviously, the quality and locking mechanism is a bit shit (surprise!). Can't find the listing now though. For what its worth, the proper Rotopax ones are waay nicer than the China cheap stuff, but you didn't need me to tell you that. They also cost multitudes more.

Would you consider a 2ZZ / Casio repower? Also, cool thread, real skill

It'll be in the 45 pages of last year's thread. /I'll get back to you shortly
