Do any of you guys want me to bring your OS sticker sheets to East Cape, instead of posting them?

Balls. I never saw the sticker thread for buying, only the design one. If you got any spares @Archetype I'd be keen on one. @Truenotch

Fair call re: not wanting to ride a scooter that long. 

Gotta admit there was moments after 7 hours of riding with a few hours left in the bag that I wished my Chaly was a bit bigger last year. 
 

I imagine I'll be on a Honda Goldwing next year.

Will there be any space for a small bag on the recovery vehicles? I will attempt not to, but quite limited space on the old Chaly, unless I just roll fuel and a towel as my entire setup.

Fuck me this looks good haha.

Mine does the same with a new lifan - gotta keep blipping the throttle to maintain idle haha. 

You taken a carb apart to see if anythings gone a miss/gotten blocked? 

I'll probably look into a super legit carb in a couple months, for now my 110 is happy enough it just doesn't like going from WOT for like 20 minutes to stopping and keep running haha. Also the top end feels lean and lazy.

@Beaver looks like its like $50/night for a 4 bunk spot at hicks bay. If you book one holla I'll dive in

If anyone books one of those bunk bed/room situations at Hicks Bay I'd be keen to jump in.

Also probably have a spare spot at the Beach Motel thing in Gizzy as Jordies not attending anymore.

Sounds cute af. Lets haha.

Shit yeah. I hand cleaned everything, what a waste of time haha.

I almost did the bridge the other day, but then ended up taking the seats out the Corolla and taking it over, never again. Might just risk the biscuit next time.

Awesome! Yeah man that was me giving my girlfriend her first lessons haha! And yeah I live about a kilometre from there. Come for a hoon/yarn!

Ah shit ideal, I'm like 3 kms from there haha. I was scooting around today, did like 50kms.

Sick man.

Saw you guys dorting round Smales on Insta the other day, I was there a couple hours before. You local?

I got my bike running, I booked a place in whatever spot you cunts were staying at on Friday, but I have no idea how I"m getting my bike down there now or what day etc etc.

I heard something about Thursday afternoon, but where we crashing Thurs night? Cars? lol

I'm keen but this is like a week after I get back from Japan

Have put about 100kms on this thing over the weekend.

So damn good.

Anyone who knows a Chaly and still has a 50 in there, do yourself a favor eh.

If anyone has a set of not-bent-as-fuck bars that'd be cool too.

I'll try perform the ole' three men one bar trick to bend it back but not sure how well it'll go.

Oh sweet! That's gonna look good.

Don't go black on everything imo - the one they did here was dope until they got rid of the orange tank.

I got tagged in this. I've finally made it.

I may be there, yes. Yes. Probably. We need a reoccurring FB event so I stop forgetting. 

Thanks man. If he wants to PM with some of his work details or whatever I'll get the old man in touch

Hey lads,

Been trying to sus my old mans volvo v70 while I'm down here and I've come to the conclusion the headgaskets toast after checking a few things.

Anyone got a good mechanic to properly check it out and if confirmed (which I'm fairly certain) also do a good job of the headgasket?

Cheers! 

It's not working yet - as I need stuff I can't afford right now, like forks haha. But once I get 12v lights, throttle, oil change, couple of mounts and an ignition it should be ride-able. 

Sick coil mount guy.

Had to use up a shot on my roll of HP5.

I need to do some finishing and testing before all this, especially now with no support vehicle or lift down haha. 

So; Saturday came around and so did @Tumeke @Raizer @Shakotom and Jordie. 

Within an hour I had this problem on my hands;

Then a litter after that I had this;

And now I have this list to complete, but she does run.
