    Kevlar lined Flannels?

    I love wearing flannies/flannels/flannelette, whatever you want o call 'em. It got me thinking, are there any kevlar lined ones kicking about? I've had a quick troll of the intermenets and haven't found anything. Has anyone else ever come across such awesomeness?

    WTB: Honda rebel CMX250 shocks

    I'm looking for some Honda CMX250 rebel shocks which are 10.5 inches eye to eye. I'm not having much luck out here in Adelaide so I thought I'd put it out there to the DTT crew for assistance. Failing that, next time someone's up the breakers can they ask for me? I'm happy to pay for postage...

    Staffy's CX500 Bobber - 15 June - Headlight mounted and new video.

    I bought this bike a few weeks back from a local CX owner who's also a member of the Aussie CX site and and Do the ton using the name Rat-cx. Some may even remember this bike over the last couple of years. Interestingly when I was first looking at CX's a few years back this one came up on ebay...

    Catch y'all a bit later okay!

    In a week or so I'll be getting into another year of university studies. I did well last year 'cause I spent a buttload of time work my ass off to get the grades I wanted which meant I spent bugger all time on here. I'm about to do the same again until around november of this year when exams...

    An interesting convesation with an ebayer.

    Combining LED indicators with bulbs on one circuit?

    I've got a couple of LED indicators to go on the front of the CX^%) at some point, but I want to keep the stock rear ones for now. If I go to an electronic relay to ensure the LED indicators are driven ok, should there be any problems with the rears being stock running off the same circuit? I...

    DTT 12 month Calendar

    I was just thinking that we should have a calendar made up for next year. I don't have anything to put up in the shed right now. Perhaps a BOTM calendar with the bike that wins claiming that month for next year's calendar? There could also be a couple of others not including BOTM to...

    Looking for a good online source for bolts.

    I'm looking to buy some stainless allen head bolts for the bike. these aren't for the engine as that's been done already but to replace numerous frame bolts around the place.

    Do not use ebay seller Peakmoto-Powersports USA.

    The following was posted over on the Australian CX forum tonight. This guy is a reputable member of our group and if he's gotten to the point where he's posting this then the seller must be pretty bad. Well fellow CXian's, I have been stitched up by: Peakmoto-Powersports USA. I feel compelled...

    Official DTT CX riders patch

    I was trolling around looking for an official DTT Honda patch, but also looking for a CX one for the CX400/500/650 and GL700 riders, but there didn't seem to be either. I'd thought an official DTT CX patch would be great, though I don't have the software or madd skillz to make it happen. I'd...

    Official DTT Honda patch?

    I noticed there's an official DTT Yamah patch but no amount of trolling could turn up a honda one. If there isn't one, maybe there should be one. Simply add some wings to the middle right?

    Does matte paint really absorb moisture?

    So there's this old wive's tale getting about which I hear all the time that says don't paint your car/bike/lawnmower/toilet roll holder with matte paint as they don't have very good moisture repelling qualities and can in fact absorb moisture. How true is this? Really, isn't matte paint just...

    Stitching patches onto a textile jacket?

    I've got a dri-rider textile jacket - you know the usual ones with a little foam armour built in around the shoulders, etc. I've got a couple of patches that I thought it was about time to sew on (including my esteemed DTT Australia patch ;D ) but I'm just wondering how others have gone sewing...
