I pile of NOS seals n the like from the GC Rolf at PlenterNZ He wanted to womble sharn me about the G4 for ages man he was pissin cheese about it

Can also offer this POS up as a fun but shit ride

Oh you

I do like that PGs have become the unofficial refreshment of choice for this ride They may be gross but they have everything you need for small bike endurance riding A bit of guarana for focus some sugar for energy and booze to enhance riding ability. But yes those riders take it to the extreme. We came across one of them who was confused why his bike was broken but had consumed enough codys to not realise he just needed pertol

BZZZZZZT BZZZZZT goes the welder

The first year was the best year. So unprepared but so much fun. Day 2 route for this year has a surprising amount of service if you are with Spark

Man im not going near PGs again after a scientific binge on them earlier this year

Rumour has it that Ruatoria Bioscience has their medical weed farm hidden along that road Hype pic

A couple of terrible videos showing the road condition with the poor Jimnys primitive traction control having maximum derps

Speaking of soup kitchen when we talked to Bill at the T.A motorcamp he showed us thru the old movie theatre thats been converted into a 12 bed bunkroom. Has a 3 bedrooms with 4 bunks each, a kitchen and its own private covered deck/bbq area Good option for us to book out as the gang pad for the night

Roads aint closed so they are good to go https://www.gdc.govt.nz/services/roads-and-roadsides/road-information

Pix taken on the new inland route between Gizzy and T.A. Sweet road with some big climbs that get to around 700m elevation. Lots of good views, lots of grass and lots of biiiiiig country plus a couple of creeks with optional water crossings

Anyone who wants to flex their massive penis size is most welcome to ride my matt black Sj50 that I was given before it was thrown away

Chea for the offer, pretty sure I have a pair of spare TF shocks at the olds farm but if not il just steal the ones off my running one for the weekend

Tear down has revealed that the engine is in great nick considering its sat in the shed for 20odd years, helped by the fact the 2T pump leaks so the bore and crank case were full of oil. Now iv got the case split I can put in the new kickstart shaft, do all the seals including crank seals cause they will be hard and fucked then figure out how everything goes back together. Exhaust pipe was well coked up from years of being idled round a kiwifruit orchard so got spectacular fireworks when I burnt it out with degreaser and the draft from the vacuum cleaner Gasket kits are $$$$$ and overseas only from a quick look so it will be a good old silicone rebuild. Frame is sweet with no major rust. Fuel tank is a bit rusty inside but not bad so its got 10l of vinegar soaking in it Forks need new seals/oil and the jb weld trick to fix a bit of chrome wear, back shocks are coozed but il find some that fit it. AG/TF/CT are looking like good candidates Biggest worry was the rims being only chrome with rust flakes left under it but they are surprisingly solid considering the last time it was ridden when starter snapped I was using it to dig hole on the beach, even the cush drive rubbers are still sweet. Will do new wheel bearings chuck some fresh grease in the headstem bearings fit some new tyres most likely golden boiz and send it This is when it was last running feat 12yo Lux and my first AG100 down the coast on a big station so its only logical to get it going for pesting the back roads of the East Coast

Time to build a bike for this years adventures

Sweet road with some serenity even on a shitty day

Better start resurecting this thing then

Ural with sidecar sounds pretty cash tbh
