I've been wondering... How did the Red Flaggots go with packing up their bikes to ship back to Auckland? Get everything done in time?

@Tumeke @slacker.cam @sentra @peteretep

Heaps of time thamls

Bikes haven't left Renwick though  / freight issues

Spare bikes to the Rescue for @Geophy's ride on Saturday.

Found the limit of the street magic on this wonderful adventure, still made it to the end of the trip though, but shit me those roads/goat tracks were steep

Bumble bee damage report

Fan obviously. Dunno why that let go, must have had some dick fingers at it before I got it and made a weak point. IMG_20220313_162628_edit_162095841124223.thumb.jpg.172e7ec4711d0a44941b2f1b760ff3f9.jpg

 

Almost everything was related to that, but otherwise minor. 

 

Crank seal behind that started leaking a little

Lost a bolt on the rear fender/tyre hugger

Exhaust baffles all came loose just south of cambridge

Lost a bolt on the exhaust shield on the way down

Breather gasket leaked the whole way

 

Vac petcock started leaking intermittently, it stopped leaking once I put north island gas in it? 

Press in carb needle seat on ring also gave up and let fuel past

Chrome plastic suzuki logo cover thing fell off the transmission cover on the way back, think I cracked it a little on a rock and it vibrated loose despite taping it on. The screws go in from the inside which is dumb

 

 

Blue donor bike has given me all the replacement parts, just swap the carb and the rhs engine case (because the sight glass is burnt black as well) and then part out the remains
