Would love to have some people to hang with haha. Figured at least if someone is doing scooter speeds its more open to newcomers. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is that what you were on last year? on that last day we were very evenly matched! Two hours of drafting and overtaking, then being drafted and overtaken, then drafting and overtaking again. That was one of my highlights! (there were many) This year I wont have a tent and bed roll. So I might have an extra .333333kph top end at full tuck.

Beaver 7,066 Report post Posted September 5, 2019 I've been commuting on mine, nearly two tanks of gas through the new engine so I'm going to say it's bullet proof for sure. The fact that that's only one day of the te urewera mission is irrelevant..... 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vintage Grumble 20,650 Report post Posted September 5, 2019 The republic of Whangamomona and 42nd traverse ride claimed a fork seal and chain roller on the NBC, so I actually have to do something to it. Unbelievable. 5 1 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lewlz. That poor thing hasn't been touched since I stupidly started working on the offroader It has no front wheel also, so I would have to be really good at wheelies, which I am not. Also, I keep forgetting about your caps sorry. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MopedNZ 5,717 Report post Posted September 5, 2019 Re assembling my bike this month, should be testing it most of next month and November. There are a solid crew of Engineering fellas from TGA that aren't on OS that have apparently signed up. 5-6 of them. YB125's and CT110s and C50's I think.

tortron 41,184 Report post Posted September 9, 2019 East coast history sharns Great grandad on grandma's side hand built the road from Motu to Matawai. He and great grandma would set camp. Build the road for a while, then decamp, load it into a wheel barrow, and move on to the next spot. Frig A Sack Also 5hrs at full throttle to get down here. No issues other than getting 70km less to a tank before reserve. Might have to recalculate my fuel fills 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
