bob b | Hey Bob, how's it hangin. Hav'nt had my 03 954 dynoed but it's got a full Yoshi race system, K&N filter, Power Comander III and a few other mods. Goes like stink, and as far as I'm concerned got more than enough power for this little fella. Have to agree about the comfort as well, although I"m cheating a bit with a Corbin seat and am as happy as!. Macca. |

Bob B | Old Bar is a little coastal town, about 3,500 population ,16 klms out of Taree. I grew up in Blakebrook, just out of Lismore with bikes so I know Burringbar well. All my family are still there. A few mates came to grief on it as well. Not much good now with the cameras and speed limits, but my scariest memory was going through as a pillion on a 74 Z 900 Kwaka with my mad mate Bill Hamilton as the pilot.  |

You are therefore my age, same time lots of fun on the old range road, on the way to the Brunswick Hotel, goes to show how well bikes have advanced in 35 years.
I mainly ride Mt Nebo, Mt Glorious, Mt Mee & Dayboro up here.
cheers

I do cheat a little, i do quite a bit of servicing for my customers, and if you end up with oil in each container (same oil and weight) i end up with a free oil change. Plus i get silkolene for free with the race bike so it not all bad. Others are the SP2 and Aero-x scooter, so the registrations are more of a issue than servicing.
Price you pay i guess. |

| Re: Australian Blade Riders THERE ARE PROBABLY QUITE A FEW GOOD TRADE INS AROUND RIGHT NOW,
WITH THE QUITTER PRICE OF $14K ON `07 BLADES & THE BIG RAPS THE `08 IS GETTING.
IS THE REPSOL A PAINTJOB ONLY SPECIAL, OR DID IT HAVE SOME EXTRA BITS?
CHEERS
