One hand through the air filter hole end straight out onto the bench! I think it weighs a while 15-20kg.
Came across a problem today, I was going to rebuild the forks while I wait on two more oil seals and I noticed one of the front guard's nuts (the one on the fork itself) has been sheared off...
Is more for size, im 6'4 so the Rd is a little small, would probably consider a h1, t500, gt550 or an rd400 for size

After a 3 hour drive in a van I "borrowed" from work, my brother and I rolled up to the small victorian town of Broadford. As we went down the single main road of the town towards our destination we saw something very unique and quite old, the Australian veteran car club was stopped there...
