Mop Head Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 5 hours ago, WankBankA100 said: Question time, I'm planning on bringing my Honda CB100 (Adventure spec) along as a backup bike. Will there be space on a trailer for it? I may be sweet talked into letting someone ride it if their bike breaks down........ Jason was gonna ride it, but he's out. She's running all new gear including a fully rebuilt motor. If I break down I’d hotwire it and use it. Save the support bikes for spare CT’s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best bet is actually @WankBankA100 as I'm touch and go as I'm not guaranteed to make the start line, but happy to grab them anyway as Ill be seeing Richard before then. @Beaver I’ll grab em off you when we sort your bike out...

johnnyfive Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Day 3, though this has an issue after Kopuriki (lunch) as google won't permit us to drive over Pokairoa Road. https://tinyurl.com/y3yx2uqq 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighLUX Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Looks good to me, the link from last year was showing going via frasertown instead of going inland via Ohuka but id guessed we were going that way 1 WEEK TO GO Long range forecast for rain looks minimal with maybe some rain Thursday evening/early Friday morning in the Motu for some water in the ford 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNAMUCK Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Bit of moisture keeps the dust down, improves traction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anglia4 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I've finally finished putting my bike together and started putting some miles on it. Rode to work today, topped out 85km/h on the flat haha Poor thing really struggles to get into the power band in top gear. I'm pretty temped to gear it down a bit to get it into a sweeter rev range for open road thrashing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighLUX Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 NZ Topo N.I is a good app for not getting lost $6.99 on the app store, works offline/ no service and you can plot a waypoint map along the route to keep you going in the right direction 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentra Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Hey there, we have 4 spare beds in our room at waikeremoana, any takers?

WankBankA100 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 @anglia4 I think the A100 runs the same sprockets as a TS100. Got a surplus to requirements 13 tooth you can play with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
