  1. I used similar code for testing screen response time etc. Damn handy you are picking this up stupid fast David!
  2. Was great racing some of the newer scoots- they would smoke me on accelleration and hillclimbing ability but i could get past afterward due to their regulated top speed.
  3. Lol i gott say it's frustrating when someone slowly overtakes you and you can't keep up and sloooooowly fall back
  4. Will have to run premix as only going to hsve one tank.
  5. also, @Raizer @64vauxhall @Shakotom @MopedNZ etc best tires for this? 14" and need to look badass
  6. MINE, thanks @Shakotom Going for the rusty minimalist look, I got stuck in today. Still full of enthusiasm from the ride yesterday. I realized the other half of the swingarm was under the belt guard (I thought the belt side was completely different until looking)- so drilled out the spot welds. Then removed a few other bolt on brackets and ordered another coil 3 in the box, the only one that kinda worked sent millions of volts through the frame like some kinda april fools gag. I also calculated the size of my new fuel tank- exactly two liters. How big is the tank on that bike you had yesterday Tom?
  7. Such a good day/night. Next time i think ill wear a camelpack to help keep fluids up. @Raizer i kicked the new scoot over this morning to test your coil wiring. I had bare feet and wet hands- got a zap through the handlebars LOL Also..super good to meet a bunch of you guys/get to know you all in person. @64vauxhalls wifes bike was such a dream. Keen to see what went wrong in the rear hub. I bet these magazine guys got some good snaps! Felt like every time i went past one of em i was tucked behind the bars trying to be aerodynamic. Must hsve been so lol for any of the public. Oh and thanks beth greg for letting me ride the bikes! Huge thanks to beth for driving the support car and massssive thanks to @nickrock for the leather jacket. I wore it for 12 hours yesterday - it fits me well, is comfortable and looks badass- you are all truely GC'S
  8. I stuck a disk of metal to the snout so that i had a solid guide to sand down to. This made things MUCH easier. Nearly ready for final assembly, waxing and mold making. SO MUCH SANDING but ill be forever upset if this comes out all wavy. I bought a good new oil pump. This is exactly the model i wanted (high pressure standard flow) and the price was great so couldnt not get it. My ali express fiberglass turned up for the mold too.
  9. depends if i drink or not but i may end up sleeping in tray of my ute. Its not that large so probably have to have canopy door open, tray down and feet poking out.
  10. I really hope i end up with something to ride. @64vauxhall and #mowgrass been trying their best but who knows.
  11. Petrol is good. Chuck ya small stuff into a bucket, let it soak and give it a shake around every now and then. The motorbike place beside midnight upholstery in hamilton (t straight) has a vapour blaster. Dunno what they would charge to clean em up but worth a try
  12. I also drew up and laser cut some mount adaptors. I coppied the basic idea from the few ausie hq- LS mounts available (but i aint spending nearly 300$). Mine all slotted together and were good enough for welding without a jig of any kind too.
  13. I love how excited oldschool gets when our cars dont break down.
  14. And after too many hours Lol i had so many safety jandle fails too.
  15. Well done. Drag racing the thing sounds scary... please get video.
