Not a pretty sight.

Bad news for me unfortunately. Finances have taken a step backwards. So I'm out. Really dissapointed was looking forward to getting away.
Have a great time guys. Maybe next time. Thanks to Saxon7 especially for offering to share a room with me.
Cheers for now Bert.

Thats no good Bert but we shall all have one for you.

bert

same deal k75cester give charlie a $50 for when it your turn to shout that way we will all know you are there in spirit

3 sleeps to go

bike serviced .new tyres

pack thurs after work cant wait

Thanks guys. I need a favour though. Need to get Saxons zorst to him. I going to talk to Charlie and i've sent Alby a pm. It fits across the pillion seat no worries. Thats how i took albys up to kingaroy.
Maybe if they cant, Mr Blakey might be able to.
Sorry to ask but really want Sean to have his zorst.

Bugga! Was looking forward to catching up.
Not to mention that bit where we were going to whack the new zorst on outside the pub and be delinquents.
We'll all have to drink more now.....

Sorry you can't make it along Bert.

Don't worry, we'll get it there somehow.

bugga bert ...sad to hear ol mate ..ill try to get down there for the zorst perhaps wed night ? ill give ya a sms to check first

Sean, thought your dog would be a better option than mine.

She does like her morning nap and her "sister" is about the same size. It would be cruel to upset her routine to take her to Bingara.

, I see what you mean, Stan. !



So.....just as soon as I can get Bella up and at 'em......

Charlie, Bert 2.0 et al,
It would be really good if someone could drag along that zorst to Bingara, !
However, if it can't be done, I can always take a ride up later and grab it.
Terrible thing, having to ride to QLD.......
Thanks
Sean.

Its a dog's life, isn't it ? Sure is a real bitch to get them up in the mornings, doggone it.

heading down there tonight seanii , in the "rolla"

just did a regrease of splines in the drive shaft ...this morning , just to put the rear wheel back on now .

Grinning in anticipation!
Thanks Charlie and Thanks Bert 2.0

ooops note from bert 2.0..... dont forget to bring along a 85 or later left side foot bracket.... so we can mount that sucker up seanii

enjoy your weekend guys, travel safe

Enjoy your get together, guys. Lots of us have been looking forward to it for weeks and we'll be with you in spirit.

Can somebody total up how far everyone has travelled on all the K bikes for this meeting? Could be more than many people ride in a year!

You'll then have a KK (K kilometers) rating as a target to beat for the next get together.

Cheers,

Paul.

oh ? i think we got that beat paul ..at least 4 of us clocked up about 3000 k s each for the araluen meet . a little while back, but rough estimation will have most of us up around the 1200 k mark each, by journeys end .

of corse not forgeting gordo (ghost who rides ) who came up from tasmania ..crikey what an excelent venture

he has been kinda quiet just recently ...wonder what hes got planned ?

@charlie99 wrote:ooops note from bert 2.0..... dont forget to bring along a 85 or later left side foot bracket.... so we can mount that sucker up seanii

Already in the chair. As is the bag with your kit in it.
Anything else I can throw in the chair to bring along for show and tell?
A final drive to look at maybe? A gear cluster or something?

You guys amaze me. Nice to see people linking together for a week end of fun.

ENJOY, and send us pictures. We will be drooling on our screens.

CF

Have Fun guys looking forward to the photos and me doing this next year up there with my bike

Halo

Hi all,

Ghostie here, yeah it's been a while but i've been reading every day, can't seem to get enough of problem solving a la this forum, the laughs and of course Days of our Dazz !

Family issues have come to a head, parents 82 and 89, to the extent that i have relocated to Adelaide to become full time carer for an unknown period. This will obviously affect my plans for treKKing Tas meet which I will discuss in that thread when I get time.

I have brought my ute, tools and K75 to the big island as aids to my sanity during this time. A month ago I was hatching a plan to do an "Araluen" on yas all, even tried to enlist another forum member to Gatecrash the meet but he was unable to then I got an important function on the 4th bugga!

Plan B was as above tho solo and staying at Bingara pub thursday night, arrange photos messages and other surprises then eff off back home . That had a certain appeal in keeping with my handle , the fun in these meets however is the friendships firmed and formed so plan B was shelved.

Just realised I shouldnt" have told you this... oh well you are warned..

GWR,
I ended up in Guyra after all my world travels because I became the full time carer for my old Ma, who died just about exactly a year ago. I ended up being here for 12 years. It's a hard job. Make sure you get in plenty of rides and the occasional tonsorial varnish.No-one is superman and you need breaks from it, even though that in itself is a hard thing to do. Sometimes it takes 500 km on the bike to feel normal again and be able to turn back and head home.

2 sleeps to go blokes ...1 for some others .......enjoy the travelling ..!!!

just updated title

oh bugga ghosty ...hope everything goes well ....or at least smoothly ol mate....onya for being there for them ...

there will be more oportunities for sure ...just keep throwing a leg over and get that breeze through the old head time to time mate ....

What say we have a small raffle while we are there. The proceeds will go to Charlie who needs a new keyboard. Apparently the shift key is busted.

yeah ok.... can't spell to save my life rick ... there were far more interesting things around when i went to school

Charlie & Blakey..we will see you in Warwick at maccas around 10 am sat?? I have carb tune for Saxons exghaust to compare any difference.

Col.. Please remember the adaptor if its arrived.

Stan..I have your red leds in the bike.

Also for those who are interested i have Four Earth Upgrade Cables here for a whopping $9.00 each.. 6mm terminals and 100 amp dc cable with heat shrink over terminals. These are an inch longer than the original wires.

You can see the original earth wire on the left. The red wire is just to show the crimp used. and the other four are for whoever wants one. I can also make up any cable you need.

See you all there.....

those earth cables work good too ...highly recommended

onya alby

see you in warwick (maccas )

The title of the thread was updated by a Queenslander.......well done. Hope the northern cousins have a safe trip. Col and I meet up at 10 tomorrow and then more southerners at 12. See you all on Saturday.

Alby, I'll grab one of those earth leads on Saturday if you still have a spare.
I seem to recall you and Charlie said I need one thicker than the current 3amp one i'm using. :cyclops:

see you all in Bingara....call 0414231985 if want to meet up...otherwise at the Pub...

cheers JK



PS love a lead too thanks...

I rember a book called "How to Eat fried Worms" it even had a minibike as the bet!!
We will catch up soon!!!

Enjoy the ride fellas and stay safe.
Regards,

Pffft fried worms Alby. Dont think so. Raw with french mustard dipping sauce. Very piquant. See I'll be having just as much fun.
Wifey just said i can help her with the new curtains too.
Woohoo cant wait.
Have made a start on short shot sporty angry zorst, might do some more on that.

You boys have a fine time in and around Bingara this weekend. Here in the North East US it's at last a sunny (but cool) day. Most of the leaves are down now and the mottled grey-blue morning air has a crispness that suggests Winter's around the corner. The temps will drop to freezing in a day or two. With that in mind we are making haste outta this place today. We'll make one more visit to my daughter in Western Mass, then South we go after a quick bypass around the still-in-trauma Big Smoke which remains dripping and needs to be properly wrung out from the recent drenching.

Good riding to you all.

Thanks TWB.
Five minutes from leaving here and I think it is going to be a stinker.
Sun shining bright and light breeze.
Look ou Putty Road. Here we come.
rossco

Plans are designed to change. Col was supposed to retyre earlier in the week, but they sent, not once, but twice the wrong rear tyre. A brand new front and a dead rear..not a good combination, and no one can get him a sport demon in Orange. He is riding to Dubbo where he can get one and then we are leaving from here to meet others in Dunedoo, as planned.
