I recieved email from Wayne regarding group buy order, so I went ahead and ordered the gloves and jacket. He will refund difference from the group buy as I couldnt wait any longer as will be away from tomorrow for 1 month and didnt want to let the group buy numbers down cos I may not be able to...

Thanks all for the info it is of great help, as usual on this forum. I just went and ordered the ali 83 deg valve stems from bike effects. I gotta get one of those compact pumps one day as well.

Thanks JT, been looking mate but so far there all new ones for sale. Just emailed a wreckers in CA to see if they can get a used one cheap for me.

Thanks Marty. I've got a digital gauge myself with a 90 end on it for checking pressures, thats the easy bit. Its the fuel station airhoses that are a pain to get on my valves at the moment. Those valve stems you have are the same ones I'm looking at buying, so glad to hear your happy so far...

Glad to hear your both ok too. I get so mad when I hear this as it could have been for the worse. Its experiences like this that I learnt the term you guys use "ATGATT". Thanks for sharing this unfortunate accident and hope you ride on. May the Angels of the Highway Always protect Us.

Guys this putting air in my tyres has me worries sometimes as I feel like I'm going to pop the rubber straight up one out or partially tear it somehow without knowing, not to mention its a bit awkward. Been looking and found a European made stem with an 83 deg angle on them made from alloy...

Hey rider thats not a bad idea mate. My daughters have been asking me about a ride on the bike and now you have solved my problem without me even thinking about it, thankyou.

Bump bump, just trying to keep my chances alive. Anyone know of a bike wreckers somewhere near Russells seats? Dont care what year as long as it fits. Thanks guys

Me too, I'm not fussed either way as long as we get the discount. No problem.

Thanks guys, I 'll use the moly 60 grease I got before I put the wheel back on.

Have done a search and cant find anything on which grease to use on the wheel gearing that meshes with the gearing on the pumpkin before putting the wheel back on. I know it will be on the forum somewhere but its late here. Have just done the drive shaft spline after removing the pumpkin from...

:D :D :D :D Yeh I know us Aussies spin the other direction. Now I wonder if the arrow on my tyres are suppose to point to the rear :dribble:

Had a quick read through this and sorry if I missed it in someones posts but is it worth mentioning to clean up the steel discs also. My shop said that some clutches are sticky from new however they mostly improve as the oil spalshes around the clutch and washes off the assembly grease that was...

Thanks guys good advice. I got the tyre plug kit with the throw away CO2 cylinders that go into a canister thingy, thats also a combined hand pump in case of emergency as I would hate to be stuck out in mad max country in the middle of nowhere. How stupid of me, never to think of checking the...

Guys I know they say to check your tyres cold, but I'm about to do a 10,000km ride and wont have access to a compressor like I do at home. So if I pull up and lay a swag down for the night on the side of the road, get up the next morning, check my tyre pressures with my portable gauge and find...
