Standard gearhead.
Hey guys, I found that big single I was looking for:
Well, thats her. Not the cleanest thing around but it came with 17,000km on the clocks and a few months of road registration so I'm happy. Also on the 'comes with' list are new Pirelli MT21 front & rear tyres (rear not fitted yet), a long range Acerbis tank (now fitted) and a Fox dualsports helmet.
The plan at this stage is to do a general go-over with the bike and do all the general stuff like oil/filter changes, new sparkplug, valve clearances and a new chain and sprockets because the old ones are totally buggered. The airfilter is getting replaced with a Unifilter performance item, so that should be interesting. The rear disc brake is close to minimum thickness as well so I'm after a replacement.
Final plan for this is to take it around Australia sometime next year and see a bit of the country while doing as much offroad as I can. No rocksolid plans yet, but its definitely happening. Any tips, hints, questions or comments are most welcome.
Thats all for now, cheers - boingk
